Simply put, it's ugly. It's the proverbial "horse designed by committee"- it's a hatchback, it's got 4 doors, it appeals to lesbians and jocks alike..

Nasty POS. We thought early Bangle was bad...

My first thought was that it looks like a Hyundai. That GT badge looks cheap.

Maybe the fugly 5 series GT was such a rousing success they thought even the lower classes should be able to have one, too.

I am tired of that look. Is there nothing new in car design anymore?!?

As an employee of MB, you should be happy BMW is building such ugly vehicles.

No wonder kids aren't interested in cars anymore. Hyundai? Honda? Toyota?

What is so wrong with a proper wagon? That is simply an abomination.
