RENDERED SPECULATION: Is This A Good Indication Of The Upcoming BMW 3 GT?

RENDERED SPECULATION: Is This A Good Indication Of The Upcoming BMW 3 GT?
As we've seen previously, when Scott26 speaks on a forum, you pay attention because he has been right plenty of times before concerning BMW products. He's some sort of BMW insider.

Taking that into consideration, he recently made some posts about the BMW 3 GT, which has recently been spied during some prototype testing. According to Scott, it is safe to assume that the GT will appear before the actual new 3-Series much in the same way the 5 GT was unveiled before the F10 5-Series debut.

While Scott confirms that the rendering is relatively accurate, he points out a few missteps down below.

A friend from the UK or indeed any other country sends me scans or clippings of magazines that portray a BMW whether past , present or future.

Today I have been sent some examples of the BMW 4er , or as it will be known as the BMW 3er Gran Turismo. Because in China for example - 4 by itself is considered unlucky. Given that China will be a key market for the Gran Turismo 3er, and it could also be built there alongside the China Market only 3er Li Longwheelbase Sedan which the 3er GT shares a platform with.

Given that the 5er Gran Turismo preceded the 5er Sedan in production and concept , this will not happen with the 3er. Again like the 5er, the 3er Gran Turismo will appear as a "Pre-Vision Concept" although the 5er GT in production form was seen before the new 5er. For the 3-series GT Concept you will see the 3er GT Concept before the new 3er.

The rendering concentrates on the final exact shape but some details are exaggerated especially the bluntness of the rear. It is bit more streamlined dynamic looking and less bulkier than the (6er) lights on the render.

The headlights I can say are very close to the finished car. Given that the BMW signature headlight shape is now being immitated left,right and center.

It is only right that BMW designers seek to add new interpretations to maintain a single identity.

The 3er Coupe also uses the same formula to add increased sportiness to the front of the car. As does the upcoming new BMW 1er Sporthatch.

The 3GT will be a huge hit. The proportions of the 3er are much better suited for the GT design than the 5er and the typical 3-series buyer is dying for something that looks a little different.

Not Bangle different/ugly, just something that makes the car somewhat unique from all of the other seemingly millions of 3-series cars on the road.
