Despite the failure of the BMW 5-Series GT, BMW is determined to capture the economies of scale of its rear-drive platform and shoot for unprecedented volume by cranking out even more ugly variants of its core models. Case in point, the 3-Series GT.
The undisguised 3GT was shown over at F30Post, a popular BMW messageboard, and ostensibly caught while filming a commercial. Even though there will be a 3-Series wagon, the 3GT will be produced to occupy some kind of white space in the BMW lineup, perhaps the "sporty hatchback for people too embarassed to drive a wagon or an X3″ niche. from The Truth About Cars http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com | |||
