Only handing difference is that they are longer but you barely notice it. It makes highway cruising more stable but handling a bit less in small towns and tight areas than the sedans. The engines, transmission, all major components are the same throughout BMW's line. The GT's are a bit lighter for the space they afford than the X series. Honestly they are more practical and far more exclusive because they did not sell in large numbers. I think they are great cars and highly recommend anyone looking at them.
Agreed, the sales Numbers in EU exceeds those in the US. In Norway the GT sells decent, sedan sell X3 as much, touring x4, it is considered as a smart choice with a fine blend og size, and smartnes.
