You caught me. I’ve fallen victim to the trend, and I have Pokemon on the mind. But once you see a Zapdos, a flying bird-like Pokemon with a talent for electricity, it’ll all make sense:

See the resemblance? Okay, maybe the car is a little less spiky. Either way, they both look pretty fierce. This custom i8 is currently housed at BMW Abu Dhabi. It has a partial aftermarket aero kit from AC Schnitzer and has an exterior called Austin Yellow, an M4 color option. It has a front spoiler, side skirts, a rear diffuser, and a fixed rear wing.

The interior goes a completely different direction with a traditionally classy black and white piano look. Party outside, business inside? We’re into it. Especially if we pretend it’s a Pokemobile!
