I'm actually loving all these hybrid super/hyper cars for the simple fact that it helps BMW with their BMW i program. BMW knows even if they were to build something of that calibre, it'll fail to shine in the group of Ferrari, Lambourghini, Porsche & McLaren. Instead, they build something similar that's a lot more accessible to a lot more people.
It's exciting to know BMW had this vision years ago where people mocked them, now BMW i is in the front with this type of car and technology. Sure Mercedes and Audi have their SLS's and R8's which are fine cars but the current trend aren't pointing at them, it's about carbon fibre and hybrid technology.
