I like it, the car looks amazingly powerful and there is tons of room in there. It's really a luxury family station wagon, and I would definitely buy it over the Mercedes E wagon or some other types of cars, from other manufacturers. Getting from point A to point B in sheer luxury, that's the way to travel.

This would be the ultimate multi purpose family vehicle. Love the interior, and front end!

The market has created a demand for these crossovers. BMW needs this to compete with the Porsche Panamera, and upcoming Merc R Class.

When the Z4 was introduced in Fall 2002, it got the same negative response for looks. Been driving my Z4MR for 29 months now, and I have never experienced the kinds of positive comments from onlookers as I have with this car. I suspect the GT will do the same.

LOVE it, and think it looks great in that color. I hope we can afford one when it comes time to replace my wife's E46 wagon.

When I'm older I could see myself in one of these: comfortable, easy ingress/egress (limbs stiffer when older); ample room for luggage for extended road trip - in retirement ppl have the time; good vis (necks are also stiffer) + higher seating. And less-compromised center of gravity than an SUV. Lower weight -vs- say an X5 = better mpg for same engine.

It's actually really well thought out: BMW is thinking ahead re what the Boomers will likely want / need.
