Went for the i3 test drive, stayed for the 335i pics on the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve

Had an invitation to test drive the i3 on a road course, so decided to go today.
I noted that part of the road course was on the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (F1 circuit here in MTL), so when it was time to go, did a "field trip" on the circuit, and took some nice pictures.

As for the i3, may I say surprised !
Very nice little car, handle very well.
Almost wish I didn't buy my wife a Mini last winter, this would definitively be our daily driver.

Below, some pics of the i3, then many pics of my 335i on the circuit.
Note that I deliberately took a very close shot of my car, think it's the 1st time that I really see the BSM definition that well.

Enjoy !

Thanks.

4th BMW and 3rd black, got used to put some elbow grease to have it shinny.
Just clayed it this afternoon, I'll do some paint correction on it this week.
Looks pristine, but there's some spider web on the paint.
