This is my 8th brand new model car and I can tell you that I have had a few M cars and also an Aston Martin. None have had the same impact as the GT on the design front when people see it in real life on the road or parked up on the side. Not always.

Its the novelty, if you turn heads 2 years later, now thats an achievement. When I have a car that still turns heads after that much time, I think, what the heck? LOL Well, for me that happens when u choose a sporty design. Now back on topic, if other designers do all the -hard work- , making designs and competing against each other, adrian just relax and decide with the help of the jury?? I mean, I know ain`t that easy, but I wish to know in detail what else Adrian V does? That happens when an all new model hits the road, its pretty standard to turn heads.

I have now had at least- I must assume- 100 people falling for the design. When I first got the car I knew that it was a design which was testing ALL of us who love BMWs but trust me when I say the GT has really brought FURTHER "joy" to me. This is one hell of a car and I am very happy with it. I am also glad that I picked 19" wheels and not the 20" which are really uncomfortable on a car of such shape.

Horatiu pulled the teaser image from this car. It says to me that BMW design is now taking a less adventurous path. Maybe the strategy pleases more people, but I'd like to see them go balls-out on at least one production model. @ 1:27 thru 1:32 in the video we can see a much more radical prototype design (front and side view) that I like as much, if not more than the final selection.

R-class & Q7 also in the clinic. R-Class' presence makes everything look great in an instance!
