Not only will it be a good family car, it also looks great and price will be under the 3-series .

Yes ! and Yes!

Nomenclature aside:
This 2GT is the new 3 series sedan we have been looking for since the E30/E36.
(pricewise too). Because the F30 is really an undercover 5 series.

They all went up the latter due to the competition in "mine is bigger than yours".


As for the name, i am starting to get BMW "illogical" thinking.

1 series will be FWD.
2 series will hopefully remain the smallest BMW RWD.

If odd # are sedans based,
and even # are coupe based,
and GC are sedan based on the even # coupes,
then the only solution for us to get the smallest RWD sedan would be in the form of the 2GC.

Otherwise you could get the future 1 series (sedan/4door) that is FWD.
