    This has always been my favourite dream car... To me the lines looks amazing and very rakish, modern. I think with years this design will be appreciated even more

      I recently was out looking to buy a BMW and I was absolutely in love with the GT. Some of the newer models come with the heads up display and are more refined than the 2013 model year.
      Though I ultimately went with the touring since I found one with less miles and for a cheaper price. But the GT is so underrated and hopefully as my next car I’ll be able to buy one if there’s still some on the market with low mileage

    2017 340i GT past owner here, it was a wonderful car to drive in terms of having some fun on the road, with ample amount of trunk space. However, if you're daily driving in winter weather, or take frequent road trips that have uneven nasty dirt roads, I would re consider this car as an option. Especially frameless windows that will be frozen shut almost every morning if your winters get cold, causing the window to not be able to safetly drop half an inch for clearance. plus no personal storage compartments, barely a center console, and the wireless charging station doesn't fit iPhones. Navigating carplay via a dial because there was no touch screen was very awkward as well, especially considering my 2014 mazda 3 had touch screen. All in all, very fun car to drive, but not a very practical car for daily driving & adventures, even considering the ample amount of trunk space. With the frameless windows, how low it sits, minimal personal compartments, and a a stiffer suspension, it's fun to drive, but not really a car meant for comfortable cruising and ease of access. I personally loved the look but many people were thrown off by it. For all these reasons I listed I ended up going with an X3. Still quite fun to drive (not as thrilling as the 340i but good) and very dynamic as it handles confidently on sharp turns like no other SUV I've driven. I sacrificed a little bit of driving fun and style for a lot more practicality and I have no regrets thus far. Super easy getting in and out of, incredible field of vision, high elevation, tons of personal storage space, huge wireless charging pad, touch screen, and the list goes on and on. Much happier and comfortable in the X3 but it may vary on the buyer. If you want MAXIMUM practicality and still have a bit of fun then definitely check out the X3, basically the SUV variant of the 3 series. Awesome car. Im in my mid 20's with no kids and I love this car, my friends brag all their small sports cars and I'm laughing while I'm laying back letting the X3 drive for me.

    Good review overall. Regarding options and pricing, that's what you pay for the good stuff in a premium car. "Perceived" 5 series territory or not, the options don't come cheaper in the 5 series, and who gets the 5 without these extras? In the end it's the buyer's choice and the price difference remains the same.

    As much as I like BMW and has over many years, I simply can´t familiarize with the profile of this GT same with the 5 GT. I find it un-dynamic to look at - the rear overhang and the rear slope without the classical BMW Hofmeister kink just makes it look heavy and boring. But no doubt there will be buyers for it. Fine review thanks ;)
