A few days ago, I spotted this 330i GT test car. Just as I was about to dig into my scrumptious halal meal, I noticed the Style 658 wheels on this GT (these wheels are not offered on this model, so I found it peculiar). Then I saw the camouflaging on the wheel caps, as well as the NJ manufacturer license plates, and realized that I was looking at some sort of prototype.
Meal in one hand and phone in the other, I rushed hurriedly to the sidewalk to capture a few shots of it. I promptly got laughed at.
Even as a lifelong BMW fanatic, I question what test car this may be. I initially thought it could be a facelift, but the LCI (BMW-speak for that ubiquitous term) already came out last year. As it is just a regular 330i GT (two exhaust pipes), it’s unlikely that they would be testing a lower-end powerplant such as that offered in the 320i. Plus, at this stage, the G20 prototypes are all covered in camouflage. Anyone have ideas?

Clearly they are testing a lowered X6 model.
Full of the sound of the Gran Fury, signifying nothing.

I like hatchbacks. I (used to) like BMWs (it’s been all downhill ever since the E38 and E39 were replaced IMHO). But I absolutely loathe BMW hatchbacks. They haven’t made a practical or good looking one in years, and the GT models prove that.
Even though I’m in a position where I could purchase a new BMW again I have no desire tOf do so. They’re probably setting new sales records year after year, but I now longer care about the products they have for sale. Maybe I’ll buy and older one again some day as a plaything, but even that seems like a rather remote possibility.

Please BMW, do NOT merge the Gran Coupe into this.

Probably was some sort of preproduction prototype that just stuck around in the fleet for employees to use. I’d guess they just didn’t bother taking that camo off.
