It's not a revised prototype of 3er GT. It's the same prototype of 3er GT we've been seeing last few months - yet without all the massive & voluminous plastic camo in the rear & sides. The camo was there to deceive the public; to suggest 3er GT will be just a mini 5er GT: bulky & massive.

But despite the elevated semi-commanding sitting position 3er GT is much more a 3er fastback than 5er GT is a 5er fastback. 5er GT is more a cross-over, a luxurious & elevated huge hatch. A Gran Turismo. 3er is much more dynamic car, with sportier character than 5er GT. Mind there is a bigger difference in character between 3er GT & 5er GT than it is between eg 3er Sedan & 5er Sedan. If 5er GT is more a 7er in character, 3er GT still has a 3er's character.

4er GC will follow the 6er GC formula: it will be a coupe with 2 extra doors. Meaning: sitting low & having sedanesque side profile.
