At first I thought it was a seven series that didn't look quite right...and then I thought it was an F10, however I knew that couldn't be. As I approached I saw 550i on the back and then realized it was the GT. It gave me a nice preview of the F10, and the best thing about the entire car was the angel eyes. They were super white in the daylight...almost LED like. Sorry...no pics.

Yeah me too. I was at the dealership the other day getting a piece of my M Tech bumper replaced that had fallen off in the winter and, sure enough, there was a GT sitting in the middle of the showroom. The interior was very nice but the exterior looks like a bloody mess to me. Never going to be a fan.

I might not go all the way, but I'd tea-bag those rims for sure! :lol:

Seen a couple around NYC..... I think the new BMW models are really looking like shit IMO.... The new 7 series looks like a lexus in the rear with huge nostils in the front. The GT is horrible. The F10 doesnt seem like its going to be any nicer....I think Bimmer will eventually push me to go to another car, cuz it seems that there newer models are just getting uglier..

The newest X5 and X6 are exceptions, cuz they are gorgeous.. I love the E92/E93... But I'm sure the newer bodies as they come out will also have those hideous huge grills.

Very disappointed with BMW

BMW Will never be the same again. Ever since they decided to go with the copy cat of X6's, the newer models does not catch my attention. :angry:
