Given how different the 6er is compared to the 5er, i can see some distinction with the 6GC. But the 4er is really a 3er coupe, so i'm just not seeing a whole lot of distinction...

The GC will obviously look sleeker, lower with more flowing and attractive exterior lines in the rear half. I owned an F10 and just drove the 6 GC at the UD event and the experience from the driver seat is quite radically different. The significantly more sloping window and the interior works to create a more intimate and sporty feel and the hood also disappears quicker giving you less of a feel that you are at the helm of Titanic. I definately prefer the GC feel behind the wheel over the F10. The GC was also tuned to act slightly more sporty but it's still no where near the E60 ( the GC's steering is garbage ) and for my tastes pretty uninteresting as a package.
I've driven the M5 and M6 ( not the 6 GC ) and perceived the difference to be less noticeable in terms of tuning as IMO it should be. No M car should be held back but be as good as BMW know to build them within the parameters of cost. I really hope the M3 will only take a back seat to the M4 and M4GC in terms of aesthetics and NOT driving dynamics and performance since that would really, really suck.
