For those of you who have been screaming, "BMW is losing its way!", sharpening pitchforks and what not, the i8 may be your idea of the perfect thing to burn in effigy. It's a hybrid, automatic, AWD. It's not an E30 M3 -- gasp! But in my brief ride up a canyon with Mr. Harris, I felt a chassis that is eager to turn, corners very flat, and felt quite fast, even without thousands of horsepower. Imagine that. A bit "BMW" of them, don't you think?

Every performance part comes with some promise of power increases but saying that you will pick up 10 or 15 horsepower really ...
Chris Harris getting behind the wheel of an exotic automobile is as predictable as rain falling after you wash your car.
