428 GC delivered in Vegas

DJ Rocc · 06-20-2014, 03:24 PM

Congrats on a great 428 GC! Looks Awesome. Thank you as well for the pics. I have a 428 GC, AW, BL Interior, Black Piano Trim, Msport, Msport Brakes.

Can't wait, it should be here in August!

Was wondering how come you guys don't get the Fog Lights? Also, is your Dead Pedal Aluminum or Plastic?

Congrats again, these pics make it seem so much more REAL and beautiful.

In that Garage pic with your Wife's 5 Series, it actually looks wider from the rear, is it really?

and how do the other dimensions stack up to the 5 series?

christof30 · 06-20-2014, 03:49 PM

congrat's! enjoy!

E90.V8 · 06-20-2014, 03:49 PM

congrats on the car! the 4 series GC is stunning, esp in AW and CR.

Jblackbelt · 06-20-2014, 04:36 PM

Congrats on the car! I'm right now deciding between a 535, a 435 gc, or an x5. Being that you have a 5 series and a 4gc, which do you like? You mention the 4 gc lacks the creature comforts (which I love), but if you had to choose one of the cars, which would you choose?

I didn't pay attention to the comparative width. Also, the pic of the two cars and the pics I took yesterday were taken with my iPhone. The others were taken with my camera. That may make a difference for the side by side pic.

The 5 is only a little longer, but the width inside is noticeable.

Similar to the X3, I would want the 428 GC around town 90% of the time and the 528 99% of the time on road trips.

The seats on the 528 are head and shoulders above the 428 GC - the luxury seating.

A lot of the other package features are common between the two.

Looks great enjoy it.

Mojizel · 06-20-2014, 06:51 PM

nice. beautiful cars and I love that you keep them garaged

Imola.ZHP · 06-20-2014, 06:59 PM

Congrats!

It's growing on me, but I'm still not sure. In the end, different strokes for different folks; I am in the minority thinking that it is good for BMW to keep fragmenting their models. More models equal more overall sales while keeping fragmented version sales low thus increasing resale and creating brand loyalty. Thats just my opinion.

RoboM · 06-20-2014, 07:11 PM

Amazing!!!!!

How come the real life pics look much better than the promotional ones.

And I don't know which is more pretty, the car or the house

Width at seat hinge: 37
Width between D pillars: 32
Width of hatch opening at rear: 39

Of course it is a "Launch Supply" vehicle. What you are taking about is the "HEA" designation that we put as the name on orders that are initial launch supply vehicles.

Those bumpers look M Sport to me. I haven't explored the 4 very much so in not even sure if M Sport is available yet but I'm guessing it is and you have it.

Is there a Sport Package available on the GC? Maybe we can get some interior shots of this gorgeous color combo with the seats?

Thanks for sharing!

w3rkn · 06-20-2014, 10:50 PM

I really hope there is a M2 GC...

That 4GC looks huge... MKz

I left M Sport off, but it is definitely on the car. What pic do you want - what angle?

BMWAELBILAL · 06-21-2014, 12:31 AM

e92stance · 06-21-2014, 02:30 AM

Looks cool, not sure why you would want a 4 GC and a 5 but ok.
