That Interior is gorgeous. My dad ordered one and we went to the preview for it. Inside it really is amazing! and all the tec in it is soooo cool as well. Still love the bmw interior though.

I like the F10 a lot...but the interior is a dog...and looks like it was designed by a carpenter from bits of left over wood.
When I sat in the GT / F10 it was as confusing as hell. I mean; a split, opening arm rest...why the hell would anyone want to 'half' open an arm rest storage compartment ???? And the half that opens doesn't even allow you to get a hand in there as it's too small.
Then there's the mix of switches, dials and cubby openings in the centre console. The amount of buttons on the streering wheel mean one slip an you'll probably reprogram the whole car.
Like I said, I like the F10 a lot, but this just smacks of the old 'win and award because it's new'.
Now if you want to see a good interior design...look at this...

BMW's were meant, designed, and inspired to drive - not admire the interior. Have you guys lost your minds?

Trudat - I was just trying to spice things up a little. Personally, I love the rocket ship type interior of the Jag, and also the minimalist interior of the 5 series. They are both beautiful in their own right.
