I considered a 5 series (even though I hate driving a bulkier car), and the rear leg room was still not that great (granted I was in the CPO market, and the latest 5 series still didn't have THAT much leg room. Then I get into the 335xi GT and then everything just made sense. The hatch over the trunk to store more stuff (strollers, bags etc), and the extra leg room in the back meant no more seat shuffling. The car seat fits right with plenty of space in the front for a normal human being.
Am I a very niche market for it - for sure. Is this thing fugly? I don't think so, and I have a 335 with the M-sport and it's still sure as heck fun to drive. Kinda like the automatic rear spoiler that comes up at 70mph.

It's fugly. Functional, but fugly.
A pity that you and the other 3 customers that still want this won't get it anymore.
