You are kidding right?
IMO this is the biggest pice of S** BMW ever bulit...
There is no eleg...

2er GT is worse, but this is quite close indeed.

Autocar gave the 218i GC only a 3star rating, which is pretty unusual for a BMW. They werent too impressed with the looks and the way it drives.

"It isn’t difficult to understand why BMW elected to build the 2 Series Gran Coupé. A substantial portion of the buying public prioritises aesthetics above dynamics, so a premium-badged four-door coupé that can be built relatively inexpensively on a front-wheel-drive platform ought to sell well. And, in fairness, this 2 Series does deserve credit in some important respects.

It is unusually refined at a cruise, comfortable over long distances and economical with fuel. This new model is also pleasurable enough to steer at sedate speeds, with well-positioned controls, and BMW’s current cabin architecture continues to lead the way for usability.

Why, then, only three stars? Because we expect so much more from BMW in certain areas. Whether or not you find the 2 Series Gran Coupé visually attractive is an individual matter, but we find its styling contrived and awkward. The 218i is also short of performance and enthusiasm, and these attributes are married to the lax body control that fails to deliver the precision or finesse for which BMW coupés are known. The 2 Series Gran Coupé may sell well, but it’s a disappointing BMW."

A job well done for certain.

Hey Jimmy, old buddy,

Whoa, you're everywhere, dude. If I did not know you better I would say that the government is making you stay at home. Like mandatorily.

Audi A3 > Mercedes CLA > Mercedes A class > BMW 2 GC

New A3 is a stunner followed closely by the CLA. 2 GC looks awkward especially at the rear. The current RWD 2 series coupe looks far more delicious

 

[Centurion]

In defence of the 2GC, it looks very good from the front in person. Its competitors look sedated and passive in comparison.

Audi A3
BMW 2GC
Merc CLA

Wouldn't even consider the A Class.

Red suits almost any car, the standard trim does not bother me, what a beautiful environment, it is between the French Guyana and the Bahamas

 

[hovabongZA]

I can’t blame anyone for thinking this car is ugly.

Hideous!

The rear is too high, a lower boot lid would work wonders.

 

[hovabongZA]

The rear ruins it.

 

[Matski]

he rear is too high, a lower boot lid would work wonders.

I made a photoshop of how that might look.
