Epic.fail. The worst "idea" that BMW has brought forth.ever.
I'm speechless as to who convinced ownership that this was a good idea? The 5gt is an abject failure, so they choose to rebadge that titanic with the number representing their sports coupe history????? They killed the 6er to rebadge as an 8er with added premium and they leave this as my beloved 6er??? I'm literally stunned.

I understand how proud you are of your car, and you have every right to be. With that said, we all have our own opinions, and mine is that the new one looks better bone stock, even in white vs black. And stock for stock it's not even close.

Now, had I modify a 6GT in similar fashion, total different story. But i'm tired of fixing up BMW's odd jobs, and unless a V8 option releases later I won't even bat an eye.

6GT looks awful. How BMW takes nomenclature like '6', with such a rich history of sleek looking cars, and attaches it to that thing is incomprehensible. It looks like a big, bloated, boring car. Honestly I'm not a fan of any of BMWs current designs other than the M2; am I the only one that thinks the current crop of BMWs looks very Korean as far as exterior design goes? They have got to ditch the headlight connected to the grille look, it's terrible. I remember times where I would walk into a BMW dealer and wish I could have one of each.

On my 3rd 6 series coupe.. the reason how I justify paying Ł70k or Ł1000 a month for it every time I order a new one is because its gorgeous inside and out and is a proper GT car and I love it..
Now discontinued where do you turn?! Yes I would like a fat 5 series please.. of course not but wait.. Sir we have this lovely 8 series , if you loved the 6 you will want one. Ok how much? Well.. it starts at Ł100k plus what!!! Options? Yes, that's another Ł20k. So to get the levels of a 6 series coupe you have to buy an 8 and pay Ł30-40k more! I'm angry because it will take me the remaining 2 years of my contract to decide what to buy next! I can't justify that money on an 8 I'd rather have the i8 but that has no room. 4 series coupe has a cheap interior that still winds me up when I sat in one for 5 minutes and I'm not spending Ł60k on a 5 series unless it's an M5. My only option is a second hand 8 series that someone else specced that's dropped Ł50k in its first year as no ones buying them. Then they'll discontinue the 8 and bring out a hatchback 8series GT..

Who gives a sh** about some concept cars, there are tons of them at each car show and 95% of them are never produced. Anyone and her sheikh/oligarch can do that, and almost never do you see any of those ever sold in a showroom or driven somewhere. I care about things that I can actually buy, and if BMW took their - to some extent still existing and respected - brand that stands for the sportier side of automotives seriously, they would not stop at making some nice concept cars. Quote:
Anything for a real sports car fan? There is no Audi R8 or even TT competitor, even Nissan has two separate sports coupés, let alone AMG that are rumoured to bring out another smaller sports coupé. Yes, the M2 or M3/M4 are nice cars too, but in the end just pumped up versions of their mass-market sedan cousins. And no, a two-ton-plus-x M8 is not a sports car either, even if you do a Bentley on it and try to convert it to a GT3 car. So no, BMW still builds nice cars but to pretend it's even inspired by let alone targeted at a sportier section of the market is ludicrous. And that is in the end their heritage, or rather the end of it. Such a wasted opportunity, but I guess those who have a say at BMW are number crunchers or tree huggers. Quote:

I like it a lot. It seems to be an improvement over the 5GT, and it would be a great car for my family once we add a second child.

Or at least just put one reply, not 500. Also, the silver one is nice, but those stock wheels and ride height take away from it, and is that an M badge I see? : That roof rack also makes an already too tall car even taller, even though I understand it's practicality in your situation.
