Whats the point of debating the semantics. Bmw has a four door version of the 4 series, regardless of what you think it should be called. If you don't like it, don't buy it.

Equally optioned the 440i 4GC weighs 200lbs more than the 340i and you can definitely feel it. Not sure what makes you site superior handling when it's basically the same car but heavier

I feel the differences of rear roof and trunk are minor compared to the doors. the two long doors marks all style and the beauty of 4 coupe. and they gives much better driver view without being blocked by B pilar. this makes coupe a completely different car from gran coupe, or 4 series sedan/sports wagon to be more accurate, not just a variance. but if my GC came with mppsk I would've forgot the looking I guess. |

https://www.motor1.com/news/143701/b...-series-coupe/ Of course, right now, we have a mix of F and G platforms in the showroom, so we need to see the new GC dimensions in the near future.

As this article said, GC is the coolest car no body buys.
https://www.autotrader.com/car-news/...dy-buys-260912 This article cited BMW sales numbers and GC only accounts for less than 30% of total 4 series sale in 2017. BMW never split 4 series sale number to trims. In my area in SoCal, there are so many 4 series coupes on road everyday, but only occasionally I spot a GC. It is much rarer. even rarer than M4 in my area. I guess GC only took a very small portion of 4 sales number, like 10-20%. In my area, dealers always have like 12 Coupes, but only 2 GC on their lots. OP you got your incentive for a reason. you just picked a car that is not popular, that is discount always comes after....right? GC looks not as good as coupe, but also cheaper a few grand. When I shopped my GC, dealer told me the usually gave more discount on sale price for GC compared to Coupe. It is just harder to let them go Last edited by stobit; 07-20-2019 at 03:37 PM.. |

I've driven both, LCI and pre-LCI f30 and f36, and there are certainly some clear differences in how the cars feel. If you can't feel the difference, I don't know what to tell you. There are those who can't tell the difference between a $100 bottle of fine wine and wine sold in a jug either. |

I love the 4 series GC, I had a silver one last year. It will certainly grow on you! Colors and wheel choices make such a difference.
Try 405M wheels on the sucker, and make sure its 20 inches, here is how it looks on a GC; the bi-color silver and black combo makes it so aggressive. The hatch-back nature makes the GC a perfect daily driver and the performance is shocking, I'm sure the only gripe you have is the silhouette. Change the wheels, if you can't at this moment then save up for them and perhaps get the vinyl (M-performance) on the side skirts. There are also more aggressive M-Sport parts that you can fit like diffusers with fins, an aggressive yet subtle front lip, and make sure your interior suits your tastes. Its not easy being a GC owner, but trust me, 95% of other owners are envying you right now as you drive past them. YOU WILL LOVE IT once it looks the way you want it to. Here is the Diffuser that makes it look much better! |
