You do realize that the blue trim is a color option on the i8, right? You either get blue or grey accents.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe that to be the case with the first original editions of the i8. Either way BMW had to leave the environmental blue with the emblems and wheels.
Yes that's correct. You said the blue trim, which is an option. The roundels are still outlined in blue though. What a strange place for blue...

Back on topic.
The car will come to the USA, just not at the launch. This is not uncommon across the brand though as most people are aware. Everyone seems to want an all wheel drive electric car as standard, even though most people have a 2wd commuter of some sort. All wheel drive will come later on. I for one am excited to see the car in person and drive one.
About the topic, I love the look of the new X3, I'm not too fond how this looks.

Why couldn't BMW do something like the 330e or 530e? I think they look great.
