Funny how at the beginning of model years rates are slightly higher, residuals are lower, and the incentive programs come into play as if they really were some special bonus.

Almost similar to the department store advertising strategy, pump store prices up 30% retail, then offer 30% discounts on certain days.

The Ultimate Drive event at Santa Anita Park in Los Angeles is still going on (until this weekend).

O'fest golf outing on Monday, Sept. 21. For $200 you get to play Seaview Bay Course in Absecon, NJ, get a goodie bag with $200 worth of stuff, the $1,000 certificate, and one of the hole in one prizes is an i8!

You mean a hole in one ain't gonna happen, right?

I did the LA drive event yesterday. Even if you don't care about the $1000 incentive, everyone should do it. The autocross was incredible.

Yes, I found it to be really great; very well-organized and thought through. I got a kick out of the autocross course as well. Came second out of about 15 in the final time trial.

Well played! Also came in second. The gent in front of me just barely edged me out. All in all, great time!

I am kicking myself for not asking my instructor to let me put the car in Sport + for the time trial run. That 3-Series diesel could really use an assist in getting off the line, lots of throttle lag.

I'm going to the one in Santa Anita, but I'll be on the waitlist so I may not be able to autocross. Hopefully I can sweet talk them into the rebate either way.

Must have been the flip flops.
