The interesting thing is that it allows the G30 5er to have an even more flowing roofline similar to this early render which shows if the car used the extended wheelbase.
But sport orientated dynamics defended the decision of the standard wheelbase.
There are customers especially in Europe who like the 4er Coupe but it is entirely in adequate for their needs like family trips , business clients etc. Now they can have a 4er and all its attributes as well as the space and flexibility they need.

If you pine for this? Then the next 5er will be the gain to the 4er Gran Coupes loss.
No way. The F10 is already boat-like in its proportions. Bigger is NOT better, Scott. I'm not getting into a car bigger than the F10!

The 4GC Photoshop that you posted is what BMW should have built (including an M version).
