That's a hefty price tag. Although I think that wouldn't be the best of both worlds as the drivetrain is part of what makes the i8 so interesting. At that point you lose the hybrid technology, and completely throw the balance of the car off since that company is dropping that engine in the front bay where the electric motor would otherwise be and stripping the middle engine bay out, killing that near perfect weight distribution.
