The 5GT is a Phenomenal package that previewed a post-bangle refinement in design philosophy, details and one of the best BMW interiors.

You're dreaming. First of all, the 5GT is not the original SAV, obviously. I'm not clear on why you said this without irony, when the term was invented by BMW for the dubious purpose of not calling the X5 an SUV. Secondly, the 5GT.. well, I don't have to tell, you history will write the story on it. Suffice it to say, it's years older than the F10, and you're still waiting for the world to "come around" ... keep waiting.
