TEST CAR IN WRAP

So I just found out that the car that I spotted in the streets of Port Hueneme California was in fact the new 2014 BMW I8. I do have to say that it looks stunning. Also I wanted to add that this is the first time that I have ever seen a test car in wrap.

That's pretty cool. You don't ever see stuff like that in Mississippi, that's for sure.

And yes, definitely should've gone in the other cars forum.

I'm about 15-20 minutes away from the BMW plant in SC, and I see X3, X5, and to a lesser degree X6 all the time in camo. Not full camo for most, but bumpers, aero, etc. Little changes here and there, all with manufacturer plates.

side note.. know why it's called an i8?
