Real Life Photo's-3 Series GT-Luxury Line
Found this Midnight Blue and based on front fascia Luxury Line 3 Series GT. Still had Roundels and Badges blacked out. The 3 Series GT is much,much better executed in the metal than the 5 Series GT. Has a "4 Door Coupe" look and feel...which I like. Not bad at all. Enjoy. Thanks. PalBay

Thanks for posting. I like it but think it looks best in Sport or M-Sport. Might consider this when my lease is up next April.

Nice find. This car is growing on me so much. The new TV adverts of it in M-sport look amazing!
But it definitely needs 19" wheels to make it look good. |

I'm not feeling the wheels. But I'm feeling the practicality and room. I'll shoot for the M-Sport.

3 Series GT
I just got back from the UK yesterday and saw 2 3 series GT's both in black and they looked terrific. I think they have a look that is most pleasing in dark colors. Observation from the inside is that this is a great car for someone who feels the 5 is too big and the 3 is too small - this is the move. Smaller than a 5, longer and a little wider than a 3. I was thinking about one, but I seldom use the backseat although if I did, this would be the "small" BMW to have. Big trunk, lots of leg room in the back, sporty styling and unique.

I really like the overall look and design concept and have one on order. I have to say though that particularly on pictures from a rear/side angle it takes a little time to get used to. I didn't have that impression when I saw one live, but that was an msport. Large wheels and a double exhaust (as in the 335) also in my opinion complement the design better, but that may just be me.

Thanks for posting. I think luxury line with 19 inch wheels works great. I ordered my car with these in imperial blue and can't wait to pick it up. Do you have more pics?

I thought there might have been a few more owners pictures by now. Got to chose a new company car soon, can't decide between 3GT m sport, 3 tourer m sport or a 518d SE.

The biggest difference between the 3GT m sport, 3 tourer m sport or a 518d SE are:
- the 3-tourer driving position is 5 cm deeper than the 3GT - the 5-series is much wider than the 3GT or 3-tourer And you got to ask yourself is a 318d / 518d with 143 BHP enough for a 1700 kilogram car? By request: |

I have seen one in blue with the m-sport package, with the roundels blacked out. It all depends whether you like the rear quarter-panel or not. Personally, I do not like it, but others might. If I can get to a pc later tonight or tomorrow I will post. I will say this, the bigger the wheels, the better it looks. The m-sport I think had 16s. Needs at least 18s, preferably 19s to help fill out the car.

Nice. 1st pics of an F34 in estoril blue. Thanks for posting.
I like the color, but IMO it works even better on a smaller, sportier car = F30 sedan. The wheels are probably 18 inch, just look smaller on the GT for some reason. I'd definitively take 19s with the msport. |
