will be taking it on some extended driving this weekend and provide details later. But all I can say, it is MUCH more refined, MUCH more roomier/wider than the previous gen!!!

tofu1413 04-21-2016 09:06 AM

the roofline is quite nice.

reminds me a lot of the BMW gran coupes.

320icar 04-21-2016 09:10 AM

tofu1413 04-21-2016 10:13 AM

For people who like the 4 doors, but want coupe styling but want a hatch, but not a wagon bcuznorthamerican. Very niche, but I'd still get it lol

i dont know what the fuck bmw is up too anymore. i saw an x4 the other day, had no clue they even existed. thing seem'd so pointless. like an x6 but smaller and more squished.

tofu1413 04-21-2016 12:04 PM

^ exactly that.


and they are basically four doors with slimmer roof line and frameless glass on the doors.


the 4er GC has a hatch back design, which is quite useful...


the 6er GC is gorgeous IRL. not a Hatchback, just a conventional trunk. i'd actually buy a 640i GC in M sport if they were cheaper... :okay:

320icar 04-21-2016 01:24 PM

Okay, so they made the 3 series into the 4 door, and the 4 series into the 2 door. So why the FUCK did I see a 4 door 435xi yesterday.

If you're going to make rules, fucking follow them!

They need to make one of the worst looking cars ever made more accessible at a lower price point for the young and tasteless.

X6 actually :lawl:

Ok, I am so curious. Browsing the BMW website now for the first time in ages hahaha.

Edit: WTF IS A 3 SERIES GRAN TURISMO LOL???! - A Sports Honda Crosstour?

jk6221 04-22-2016 11:56 AM

Oddly, despite how many people might despise the Gran Coupe concept, they've proven to be quite popular (at least at The BMW Store). In my 2 months working there nearly 40% of the cars that I have delivered to customers have been GCs.

While I understand why people might find it weird to make a 4-door version of a 2-door version of a 4-door version, I don't understand why some people seem so angry at the brand because of it. It's not like it's replacing the other models.

I think I would actually take a M6 Gran Coupe over an M5 if I had the choice.

Same. the gran coupes have very nice slim roof lines.

a wagon for people that wont want a wagon........ so a four door hatchback with higher seating. :badpokerface: and more rear leg room (they sell lots of GT's in china.. and GT's are quite popular here with the mainlanders)
