Don’t you love it when Plan comes together...” I pity the fool!”
The imminent launch of the 2er Gran Coupe.

2er Gran Coupe is the first BMW 4dr that has an additional quarter light in its glasshouse. Yes it’s a Sedoupe or Coupoon but it’s a four door with a boot. That ain’t no hatch...Fool!

"It's all coming together" means a plan or a process is about to be realised. In this case, the 2er Gran Coupe is due for launch in the near future.

Yes, coming up this month.

It’s all coming together...

Those are old photos from the pre-drive back in June

The swirly-foil really ties the car together, man.

Hope they don’t mess this car up like the 1 series, at least they’ve got the grill right so far.

With that ugly X6 back and FWD proportions this isn't promising.

Tragedy is that it has 10 times better designed kink than 8 GC...

Yes. The rear does look rather tall.

Apparently it’s a very good looking car.

It looks better than the photos indicate in the first instance. Wait to see some proper photos very soon.

The spy photos didn't do it justice. Nor the camouflage. But it achieved its purpose of hiding the rather interesting car beneath it.

It looks very well proportioned and decisively better than the 1 Series.

This will keep the RWD?

Nope, it's just a 4 door coupé-fied 1er.

It's been a while there is no more rigid model naming nomenclature at BMW (2er AT/GT, 6er GT...). Though this might seem unsettling at first, to BMW's credit they only have 9 potential model ranges available for their core models (SAV/SAC aside), realistically only 8 (1er to 8er), yet there have been a variety of new models / niche models launched that had to be slotted into this limited amount of model ranges. So today it appears as though BMW's nomenclature doesn't reflect the models' body style (sedan/brake or coupé) nearly as much as it indicates their size, i.e. a given model series number will encompass pretty much everything that's a given size.

The 2er AT/GT and 6er GT really should have been labeled as 1er AT/GT and 5er GT though

The grill makes a huge difference.

Only in reverse gear

 

[Srbb]

So this is a lie??

“BMW bosses suggest that, unlike the new 1 Series, the upcoming 2 Series Gran Coupe will sport a rear-wheel drive platform”

 

[Srbb]

Only in reverse gear

Are you sure with that “only”? Source?

Nope, it's just a 4 door coupé-fied 1er.

Are you sure? How do you know this?
