Just got this today, new photos of BMW's new 5 Series GT, Hatchback.

I for one don't like it. They've taken a 5 passenger car and ruined it with the center console going right thru
to the rear seating, making it a 4 passenger. And the hatchback? I don't think it will sell that well.
I guess this is Chris Bangle's going away present to BMW design.

I actually like it, particularly the front half of it. The hatch isn't that bad, however, because it looks like it has a dual system, where you can open only the trunk if you want, or you can lift up the entire back end for larger items. So you don't have to open the full hatch just to load groceries.
