I guess I would say it is slightly improved, but I am still just not feeling the aesthetics on this type of vehicle. I'm sure fans will love the new look.

This! The GT looks terrible no matter the 3, 5, or now this. It's like they took the worst aspects of the X4,6 and the Estates and came up with this thing.

Wow! BMW just ruined the 6 series name. Such a shame, it's been hands down the best looking BMW in it's lineup for years. How does the saying go? If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck it's still an ugly 5GT. They didn't even bother trying to tie it to the out going 6 design. This front end is the same as the boring 5er. It's not even all new looking it looks like a 5GT mid cycle refresh.

This is like Pontiac taking the Aztec and renaming it the GTO.

BMW needs a shakeup

Agreed. I would never buy this ugly thing. This will be a sales disaster in the US just like the 3GT and 5 GT.

it's a bit better, but still, BMW you had one shot to really improve this car, and this is what we get? I seriously don't understand what the point of raising the height (and ground clearance) while giving it a sleeker profile is :

Should've taken a page out of my book, lol

Why do they keep wasting our time with these stupid GT cars? I've seen next to zero on the road, and wayyyy more E39/E60 tourings. Even the newest 5er touring is still something like 7 years old.

So is the whole 6 series line being changed to a GT? And the only way to get a model similar to the current 6 would be to buy the new 8 series?

Why not just call it a 5 GT? Preserving the 6 series name.

This vehicle has NOTHING to do with 6 series heritage. Someone needs to get fired. This makes about as much sense as Mercedes renaming the Sprinter van an SL.

I don't believe they just did this! Why on earth would you call it 6GT? The 6 series was always the beautifulest car in the assortment from BMW. No matter a replacement comes under the name 8 series, they should have never done this..

Once I thought SCOTT26 said that their would be a replacement for the 6 series with a much more sportier character.

Now we get this.. The ugliest car from BMW with the only number that never was ruined before.
