I took a ride over to Ferman BMW in clearwater FL today to check something out, and when I parked, I noticed that next to me was a 550 GT. The paint color was really sweet and the car looks 'ok' in person. The rear half just killed it for me! So ugly. Even the 'client advisors' (as they like to call themselves) noted their lack of attraction to the GT.

The interior was noticeably more spacious than the e60 but it didn't feel like a BMW. The situation of the iDrive controller is going to be a huge PITA. The seats were definitely a plus, as they were extremely comfortable.

Client Advisor mentioned that they are not allowed to take it out much at all and that it was basically there for show? Yet they have a CPO 528i in the showroom and this was in the lot? Guess that shows how they don't like the thing too much

forgot to ask for the price

Here's a pic:
