This car is ghastly and absolutely terrible. I would love to see BMW collapse just for making this car.

Such a copy and bad take of the new Panamera with it's hunch back and scrunched, slicey lines…

AND the paint—what is this?? A copper wire??

This is production ready—oh I'd say about 80%—and has a really tacky interior..AT LEAST the Fascination Concept seemed far more cohesive than this amateur custom job… THIS is like some flashy restoration on PIMP MY RIDE…

HORRIBLE—classic BMW good looks are gone forever it seems and even though BANGLE has left BMW—his scars will be seen forever…SOOO SAD…

This was Bangle's last big bangle. I can see why BMW did this: an American headed the design team. But now with him gone, hopefully in the next few years, BMW will stop making these things.

The nose is very blunt and brutish looking, I like it. Kinda thought the ground clearance would be a little bit higher. The tail lamps look too big but that could just be the angle. Overall a nice looking car, just wonder if there is market for this car big enough for it to be viable.

This is a LOT better than i expected. At first I thought it would've been ugly and totally pointless…now its beautiful..but is there really a need for this? May be Europeans will buy it

I am intrigued by this car. Interesting shape and lines.

I won't be surprised if many don't like it, but this is certainly a car that is not for everyone. I also find that most people that don't like Bangle inspired designs are not in the BMW demographic. Well, it costs nothing to be critical.

Too bad the GT won't be at the Chicago Auto Show.
