It is ugly though...like Honda Crosstour/BMW 4 gran coupe ugly.

You think the Gran Coupe is ugly? I thought most people liked it. Wish they had built it with six cylinders and a manual.

The 6, yes, the 4, ewwwww

Interesting...are you thinking of the Gran Turismo things (ugly):



Or do you really dislike the 4 Gran Coupe too?




I dislike the former (immensely), but quite like the latter.

It should have served as a warning to others!

C'est bien simple......

You can style a 4 door like a coupé. But don't call it one, cuz a coupé has 2 doors.

I don't buy into the marketing anymore than calling the X4 a "Sports Activity Vehicle". It's a SUV, period. It's even called that way on the French BMW website  ::)

You can still get a 2019 F31!

Yes. We are aiming for this fall.  I’m not keen on buying a car that’s at the end of its design run.  I get that all the bugs are worked out but it’s looking kind of tired now.

Somebody mentioned the x7 in this thread.  I saw it at the auto show.  The front looks nice but my god that thing is huge.  Gigantor huge.  Base price.  110k.  A real econobox compared to a Cullinan though.   :P

$110k for the V8. "Only" $92,500 for the I6.  ;D

But, that is comparable to what Mercedes asks for the GLS which is likely its closest competitor.
