I actually saw one of these on the street in San Diego a week ago. Couldn't believe my eyes! At first I didn't even recognize it, then, "Hey, that's a Porsche...wtf?" Once I realized it was the new 918, I looked it up on Google - $845,000 USD (damn!), and the article said they just started production in December, so this guy must have gotten one of the first ones and then had it flown to the U.S. Car still had European plates on it.
I have to say that in person it looked quite beautiful in my eyes. My friend got a pic with his cam, still waiting for him to send me a copy. I'll post as soon as I receive it.
