    I sold my '12 Range Rover Sport Supercharged right before buying the i8 and have missed it ever since. Dealer called me a couple weeks ago and said their SVR order was open, did I want it. It's a RRS with the F-Type R Coupe engine, transmission, exhaust, etc. and currently holds the production lap time record for SUVs at the 'Ring. Best of all they are limiting sales of SVRs to 400/year worldwide and promising not to increase it. Everytime BMW does something that brings me back, they do something else to undermine it.

    I was enjoying my i8 (4k miles in two months) with the comfort of knowledge knowing residuals would make mileage largely irrelevant since buyers would have the choice of a car with a couple thousand miles or no car period...but now they are flooding the market with as many as they can. Then there was the i8s, M8 announcement a couple days before I even bought the i8. I will miss the car but it's not the special, rare snowflake they made it out to be at the beginning.

    What other car will you get and are you planning on trading the i8 in? I am struggling with the same, wondering about future value of these cars. I ant to maximize my residual also, not happy about BMWs decision to expand production to satisfy demand. Not what I had expected...
