price for a BMW i8.
The 2014 BMW i8 Concours
d’Elegance Edition is unlike any other BMW i8 in the world. Proceeds of the
sale made by Gooding & Company, the official auction house of the Pebble
Beach Concours d’Elegance, will go to the Pebble Beach Company Foundation, which raises
funds for Monterey County youth and distributes grants spanning the arts,
athletics, environmental sciences, educational organizations and community
programs.
The 2014 BMW i8 Concours
d’Elegance Edition is unlike any other BMW i8 in the world; it features BMW
Individual Frozen Grey Metallic exterior paint and a Dalbergia Brown leather
upholstery, which is tanned using dye derived from plant extracts and accented
with stitching in BMW i Blue. Other trim accents in BMW i Blue, include the
seat belts. Further marking this as truly one-of-a-kind, the words “Concours
