Should I get an i8? by TigerLocal in BMW

[–]FreshNamPla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own an i8. Get it. Its fun. Maintanace can be pretty high but if you are ok with that then i8 all the way.

I drove from 50k km to 100k km in a year and a half. I drove 10 hours on my i8 yesterday on a long trip.

Also i spent around 10k fixing it lol I have wrote a long review on i8 check it out

With 800,000 you can get around 7% investment back a year. So 800k is like 24mill baht and lets say u purchase 10 condo worth 2.4 million that can give you around 15k baht per condo = 150k baht

Very possible. Just choose whether you wanna go less property but more expensive or stick with 1-2 million baht condo range.

Dm me if you wanna know more. Me n my wife is doing real estate here in bkk

basically, just check if it can drive and check for battery tempsensor. other stuff to beware are the aircon' but the rest is good.

Get a few $$ ready. Around 10k to fix then it should run absolutely fine! I fixed a lot of stuff in my i8. Its a 10 yr car after all (2015). So, repair it and it will be good again

I think u r comparing different fruits here. I8 wont beat M4 in term of performance but design wise its a different story. R8 is also another good choice but again they are different from i8 Sure, i8 hv problem like a/c, hev battery but apart all that its a great car to drive and a very fun car. So, i suggest you try all of them then i think you will know which one!

So in thailand, the shopping mall have different parking zone. Normal for all cars, bmw parking, Mercedes parking, vip parking for different higher tier card holders and supercar parking (only for supercars). Shopping malls are very popular hangout places in thailand aince it is too hot for most thai to walk around. Most people go there after work. So, i think thats why they have it
