It started off as what seemed to be a fairly usual video that BMW would make about its concept cars. It revolves around an interview with the 5-Series GT’s project leader, Hans-Jurgen Branz. But there is something exciting about this latest video of the BMW 5-Series GT, previously known as the Progressive Activity Sedan.
Things start getting interesting beyond the 1 minute mark when a grey-coloured 5-Series GT appears. This one is missing some of the concept car’s details such as the chrome bits on the door handles and the funky door mirror mount. I believe this is the actual production version that is going to be released!
Watch the video with some screencaps after the jump. Unfortunately the video is in German only for the moment, so I have no clue what he’s talking!

fugly…..
FGS, get rid of that big nose!
Ja Ja! sehr gut! not bad at all, now if only they make an ultimate driving machine that seats more than 5 adults comfortably, now, that would hit it home for me.
looks like an enlarged and enhanced version of gen2…
yea yea.. looks like a rebadged gen2 by bmw!
gen 3 !
fugly nose!
cheers~
Yes, Gen 3 ?! duh! mixture of Mitsubitshi and Gen 2…Good luck B Eng'
the nose, their symbol…….
live with it…….
but i like it though
cheers~
The nose is too big and too flat. Inspired by that short legged animal maybe?
finally someone copying P1, that a gud news…hahahaha
The first picture ingatkan mcm rear shot proton persona! Good job P1, even ze Germans are copying you! ;p
how come all those mercedes and beemer all follow the corssover trend 1 ..
it is ugly ..
You know its hideous if people start comparing proton with bmw.
is it based on new 5-series?
The comments you guys give reminds me of the previous 5 series( e60). When the e60 first came out, all of the ppl said it is damn ugly, and what happened now? Everyone is copying the e60 style. I think for another 5 years, you'll see other car company will start copy the new 5 series style. Lets wait and see. Cheers
this is for those who can't decide whether they want 5 series or X6
i quite like it
From that 45 degree angle, I can see an ugly nose, which to me looks like it came from a Pig. No offence, but trying to copy Evo X design and BMWing it does not work
danke schoen…. =)
You know, the bulging grill really annoys me a bit :/
Macam gen 2 je..tapinya gen 2 lagi lawa…proton much better this time
haha…funny!!! ppl are comparing bmw with gen2..hahaha…p1 long long way to go..hahaha
I was sleepy and looked at this. First shot looks remarkably like a Gen2!!
Stop talking bull shit. When this car is out, if i park it aside a gen2, people will probably stare at the 5 and dont ever bother to look at the gen2. And please stop comparing these two cars. People who wants to buy the 5 wont change their mind to the gen2. Only people like u guys can said that. Weird and stupid.
Stop talking nonsense. When the 5 is launch, if it is park beside a gen 2, you can tell the BIG differences. People will probably stare at the 5 and wont bother about the gen2. And please stop comparing these 2 cars as the gap between them are that big. Furthermore, people who wants to buy the 5 maybe will change their mind to audi or merc, certainly wont be gen2. The comments you guys give is a soreloser comments.

Don't blame them,they just said about the design n style oni..
furthermore they knew the differences…
Cheers;)
if the price tag is similar with Panamera… i will definitely pick the porsche…
ayooo…let it be laa…this is just a matter of comparing the first image je…which, in this case is totally of bad quality…at first glance..yes it looks like the rear shot of a gen-2, in fact what makes these people say that is it has some similarity to the gen-2 taillights…remember, these "assumptions" are all at first glance…These people definitely knows the differences in P1 and BMW…pphhhttt….so why get aggitated? chill la bro….
