Why you shouldnt buy an i8!!

[911cck]

Hi All, please save yourself a lot of hassle and heartache if you fancy an i8 coupe or roadster. Read my rather long winded post in the EV forum about my troubles with a brand new protonic Black i8. ( which i have not had for nearly 2 months now! ) I would not waste good money on a cheaply put together car such as the i8 again! Buy something else! Anything else!!!! This applies to the current i8, and new roadster i suspect! Simply shocking build quality!!

You've clearly had a bad experience.

Build quality on my i8 is the best of any car I've ever bought. Immaculate perfection.

Can you link here? I find PH difficult to find other threads without clicking back through a users post history. Like it's 1999 or something. Or maybe its just me.

Lol! I dont know how to do it either! Its in first section under alternative fuels.

I replied to you there.

My car has NONE of the issues you identified. I am surprised you didn't simply reject the car.

One unhappy purchaser is not a reason to dismiss the car.

Very happy with the build quality of mine. No issues with fit and finish at all.
