Awesome location for a car meet, btw...
It depends, many people know that this is really something special, some have seen this in Youtube. About half of the people met don't know anything about i8. Pretty few really know specs other than it's hybrid, not full electric.

My car was featured in national yellow press yesterday and everybody knows it here. "Is this the same one and only" is the usual question every time I open the door...

Location was aviation museum. MiG-21 seen behind is one of the fighter types I got maintenance certification during the days in Air Force
