Wenn du ein vern?nftiges Auto kaufen m?chten, kriegst du ein VW.... 
But for sure the GT will be for the whole world.
The car is close the 5 meters long (about +10 cm to the E60)
and the engines will be six cylinder ones.
The wheels on the GT Concept are 21 inches!
So it will cost a bunch more than the E60 or the new F10.

Don't like the side view, it looks as though BMW is trying to compete with Infiniti's FX. 
And as noted here before it is TOO much like the 5 wagon and X6 too!

huh? It's made for the US! Don't think it will be a sales burner in Europe...
Hatchbacks are not hot sellers in the USA either. But if it had better rearward visibility I'd give it a look.

My Ride: 2008 528i: Silver/Black/Light Wood, ZPP, ZCW, STEP, Comfort Seat, Heated Rear Seat, PDC, Xenon, Nav, iPod. 35% ceramic tint, VentureShield clear bra.
I actually like it. I think the color of the vehicle isn't flattering, if in different colors it'll look better.
I'm thinking that this is more interesting than X6, because of RWD availability. The height isn't raised too much so that's also a plus. It's a 5 series wagon with more luxury and raised height, so that's quite a niche.
By the way, shouldn't these posts be in the F10 section?

Some very influential individual (must have been b/c how do you have it already) has one in Los Angeles. In a champagne color. I saw it on wilshire at vermont the other day but i couldnt get my phone out fast enough to take a pic. They are even uglier in person
