Actually, I just spent 30mins with the 6GC at my local BMW dealer, talking to my sales woman. I purposely sat in the rear seat for most of the time. I am pleasantly surprised by the comfort in the rear seat. Not cramped at all.

I have a F10 550i which I very occasionally ride in the rear, and I think they are on par in terms of comfort for the side seats. On the middle, well, ehh.... But then, I rarely use the rear middle seat in my F10 anyway. I got my 7-seater MPV for that.....

Are they out to the public that soon? In June?

The real question is whether the perceived value of the new 6 will attract more of those buyers.

Simply won't happen. You need to look at sales numbers to grasp how much they sell of each model. You will be surprised by some of the numbers for each model, especially how low volume some of the BMW models are.
