Used 2019 BMW i8 convertibles for sale near me

This is my second i8. I leased a 2019 for 14 months (lease takeover) and loved it. I was cross-shopping AMG GT, Bentley Continental GT, 911, Taycan, Vantage and Tesla Model S. My decision was based on my needs... I'm a car guy. I love exotics, but I'm also aware of fossil fuel issues and don't want to look back as part of the problem. So I wanted it all, an exotic with fuel efficiency, four seats, mid-engine, modern technology, and not a car with millions of iterations (like the 911). To drive, it's fascinating and not in a way I expected. To start with I was trying to get close to the Car and Driver 0-60 of 3.6s, but after a while, I was more interested in the fuel economy. Weirdly, I bought a car to go fast without being terrible for the environment, but in the end, I didn't want to go as fast as I wanted to see my mpg nudge up, which it did if I charged it regularly (presently I'm running at an average of 38mpg and climbing). I still accelerate fast, and pop it into sport when I need the supercar acceleration, but mostly I use it, day to day as the most enjoyable, engaging car I've owned. I've owned sub 4 second cars for a while, and some are more thrilling, but like I said, I wanted it all. So, the usual complaints: Too much plastic inside the car? Well, maybe, slightly, but look at the specs, and the environmentally friendly materials involved are staggering, and the unique carbon fiber and leather and stitching everywhere is an achievement to say the least. The interior is gorgeous, as is the subtle interior lighting, and still feels way more modern than the competitors, apart from the Mercedes maybe, and obviously the Tycan. Not a real supercar? Well, you decide: carbon fiber tub, no derivative versions (like the 911), sub 4s 0-60, eagle wing doors, mid engine, and such a low center of gravity that it sticks to the road like glue, even with tires that are fat compared to the Tesla, but thin compared to the Porsche. Less road feel. Yes, compared to the 911 (I used to have a 2013 GTS) it's no comparison. The 911 is the most engaging drive, I think, in the world, so I was amazed that I didn't miss it. I think the reviewers who look at this car have nothing to compare it to. The supercar stats are all 2 seaters that burn fuel at 4-6x that of the i8. The electric comparisons have none of the thrills, looks, or most importantly to me, the hybrid practicality. The only comparisons, really are either the NSX (hybrid supercar) but it has 1/3 the fuel economy and only two seats) but faster, or the P100d or Tycan 4s (faster but no hybrid, 4 door saloon, and well, you see 100 every day in Los Angeles) So you see, there isn't really a comparison, at least, not for me. This review isn't really designed to convince you to buy this car, more to understand the reason it's without doubt the best car... for me. BTW, my best 0-60 on the street, on a hot day, with Pirellis was 3.9s 0-60, and I nearly killed myself doing it. Instead, I'll use the power to get on the freeway, and surprise the Ferrari California that I'm faster than in the real world. Also, my 5'9 15 yr old fits in the back just fine for short journeys (<30m). 5'6" is the magic number for comfort in the back, but for shopping, you can fit 10 full bags from Trader Joes, and more in the trunk. The BMW i8 is a weird and brilliant car and that's why, in 15 years, it will probably be a collector's car worth more than anyone paid for it. Everyone looks at it (every day, even in 2022, people can't help it), but you won't be able to help seeing how little fuel you're burning as you hit sixty in under 4 seconds. Not for everyone, but definitely for me.

on our way to rochester from buffalo all of a sudden a warning popped up that oil was needed immediately I called from the car to the dealership and they said bring it in. took care of us with out a appointment gave me the options of just topping off the oil or changing it. We had it changed and I was in and out in an hour thank you BMW Rochester you save the day

The styling is beautiful, and engineering to use a combination of elecreic and gas is outstanding. This car answers everything that I was looking for in a supercar.

The BMW i8 is a fantastic blend of exotic styling, excellent performance and handling, and practicality. Though the backset is very small, I'm just able to fit a carseat which means I can drive my sports car and transport my kids at the same time. A lot of people stop and take pictures of the vehicle and it's pretty funny to watch their faces when I pull babies out of the back :)

5 stars all the way. Great selection, great service, and great prices. They made buying a car easy. I bought the car of my dreams at a very fair price.

Couldn’t ask for a better car. Hybrid, get mpg, fast when I need it to be, economical for long commutes, and a show stopper wherever it goes. I love it.

Always Jeffrey and his partner does a great job!! Breakers work perfect I’ll be back soon !! I appreciate it all your help Thank you guys

This is by far definitely one of the best cars i have EVER bought in my entire experience with buying cars and in life, i will for sure be making more purchases like this one.

Mini of Knoxville took great care of my son Justin! He was looking for a great deal on a new MINI and Darrien and the team bent over backwards to make it happen! I will be telling all my friends and family to come see the crew at MINI of Knoxville!

It was a excellent experience. Martin was very nice, knowledgeable and made sure to take care of all our needs. From trade in to final purchase, everything went smoothly, and we are happy to recommend this dealership.

Amazing overall experience. Aleks and Tasho facilitated the purchase process and made it very easy. I got the BMW I wanted and a great deal. I'm definitely coming back for my next purchase. Thanks

Set up an appointment and came to look at the 2020 BMW the next day. They were fair on my trade (you never get exactly what you want) and the car was as represented. It had just finished CPO process. Overall very good experience from Rosina and staff. Would highly recommend a purchase from Ferman.

Working with David Wilson at Porsche St. Paul was an amazing experience. I highly recommend him and their organization to buy a new or used Porsche.

I dealt with Ivan and it was the easiest car I have bought! Thank you Ivan!I love my new car and will definitely recommend this dealership.

Just got our 2nd car and gotta say we are lifelong Volvo fans thanks to Alejandro Reynaldos and the entire team at Volvos Cars North Miami. Highly recommend!

This has to be the best car buying experience I had at any car dealership. Pretty much gave me what I was asking for for my trade-in. The condition and value of the truck I bought from Auto Merchants was great. They have very competitive prices as I looked at multiple trucks and checked competitors and KBB pricing. Now, the person that made my experience great was Omar Alajami. If you are looking for a great person that just happens to sale vehicles, then Omar is your guy. I would recommend checking them out and ask for Omar.

Mr Denis Eitch is an absolute the best after sales advisor, he takes his time and go through every process of the service and explain well to clients; also he is a very efficient man, getting everything done very fast to make it easy for client. I have known this man for over two years now, and I have been recommending him to all my friends that drives a Benz for service. This man deserves a raise !

Best Service ever!! I've taken my cars to different BMW dealers for service in the past, but without any doubt this dealer has the best service department. Arutin, the guy who helped me was so knowledgeable and professional. Will definitely bring my cars here again.

We were attended by the agent Evans Tanner, he was very attentive, professional, he quickly helped us to have a good deal for us, he made sure that our car was super clean when it came to taking it away. We recommend it 100%. so if you come across this wonderful diler ask for him.

The price that was asked of the car was a fair price for the market. Rehan allowed us to ask questions, test drive the car, and made the entire process easy. I would definately recommend this dealership and would not hesitate to buy another car from them.

Great professional customer service. The dealership is well organized and made the purchase process very smooth and efficient. They were also very informative and I didn’t feel like I was being pressured to buy extras that I really did not need.
