Oh nice, thanks for the heads up. I remember that last year. I work on Water St. Bit of a walk but I might try to stop by.

RedlinePSI · 09-08-2014, 02:32 PM

I stopped by. M3, M4 were beauts. It was cool to see the i8 so close up and check out the interior. Also Lexus LFA was a nice surprise. Also got in the CLA250 to check out the tablet style hover screen and I do not like it at all.

DC X3M40i · 09-08-2014, 02:55 PM

were they still letting people sit in the i8
i work right upstairs so i was able to pop by 3 or 4 times today. and it will be there until the end of this week 9/12/2014 so def check it out
agreed the LFA was a nice surprise... and they had a new c400 inside if you really wanna see the Ipad bolted on the center stack. The seats in the m3/m4 were awesome... they hold you nice and tight..

RedlinePSI · 09-08-2014, 03:45 PM

Yes the doors on the i8 were up. Damn I would have checked out the C400, I saw the E class, but I totally missed that.

I don't really keep up to date with cars outside of BMW but gotta say, if there is one thing that Mercedes does right, its the seats. The s63 AMG and whatever convertible that was, were amazing. I think BMW should have went more upscale with the i8 interior, it really isnt that much different than the 4 series, I might even prefer the msport interior, especially the steering wheel.

sat in the i8 today..(yup.. went back again to see the pretty cars.. lol)
almost pulled a muscle trying to get in and out of the i8. its got that big lip that you have to maneuver over to get in and out...
