2014 | BMW i8

This 2014 BMW i8 is a rare, museum-grade example of BMW’s bold, electrified vision of the future with less than 3k miles driven. It uses a hybrid combination of a 1.5-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine and two electric motors, with an all-wheel drive system and a modest curb weight of under 3,400 lbs. Futuristic design is perfectly showcased with the Crystal White Pearl Metallic exterior ($1,800) and distinctive BMW i Frozen Blue accents. The Pure Impulse World package ($10,800) adds LED headlights with cornering lights, an anthracite headliner, and full perforated leather to its Carum Spice Grey interior.

Think of the BMW i8 as a low-slung sports car with visionary design and an extensive list of useful tech features. Regenerative 4-wheel vented disc brakes and adaptive suspension with ride control reflect its performance credentials. 20” BMW i “Turbine” wheels are modern, with a nod to the brand’s historic roots in aviation. The head-up display, backup camera with aerial view, and infotainment center with navigation and voice activation are all essential to making any drive more convenient. It also adds luxury touches like a leather/metal-look gear shifter and a Harman/Kardon premium sound system.

The fascinating technology that went into building the BMW i8 is worth a conversation and a deeper look. It’s why this 2014 example has been featured at the popular Newport Car Museum for the past seven years and a reason it’s worth owning as a dark horse future classic.
