Compare these pictures with the brand new look right and youd think that this is not the same car is concerned. Yet it is both the GT versions of the recently launched 3-series. Two things can then be true: BMW has given us all this time fooling held and the impression that the 3-series GT is a small 5-series GT would be, or BMW is after all the criticism returned to the exterior design of the 5-series GT and that of the 3-series GT now amended. Our feeling is that last, strongly influenced by the 5-series GT had an energetic start but now is very watered down in sales and core market, the U.S., even a flop can be called.
Audi A5
Or BMW us fooled, or that one actually has adapted the design remains conjecture. And BMW will never acknowledge us. The fact is that the rear side of the 3-series GT has a different gradient than previously shown. Accessible if you ask us. And more appropriate in the existing design of the 3-series than a butt à la 5-series GT. The camouflage hides too many details yet to actually provide certainty about the final design. But we analyze a long way. If this t is, the Audi A5 is anyway to start worrying.
To get to come back to the 4-series Gran Coupe. That model is on the stack. But that aside. With the introduction of the line models like BMW wants a step higher with what is currently the two-door 3-series are. A four-door Gran Coupe and little brother of the 6-Series Gran Coupe fits in this picture. To make it even harder to make the 3-series GT thus sometimes 4-series GT will be called. The 5-series GT is common, two steps higher on the ladder of BMW models than the Sedan and Touring, but there was another name not because the 6-series already existed. At the 4-series is different.
We expect the new BMW 3-serie/4-serie GT in the first quarter of 2013.
