This is an absurd post.
1. BMW's mission with these GT models is not the same as Aston and Audi. BMW is trying to not only make a significant increase in luggage capacity but also greatly improve rear seat room, hence why the 3GT is based on the Chinese long-wheelbase F30. The end result is ugly in my eyes, but they weren't trying to be a style queen like the A7 and Rapide. The stylish model is for BMW is the 6GC.
2. The Rapide is irrelevant in this conversation because its back seats are minuscule and borderline unusable for taller occupants if the front seat passenger is also above average height.
3. Every BMW since 2001 is hideous? If you can call the current F10 and F01 hideous then...you are quite the special person.
I'm not a fan of these GT models AT ALL, but honestly...

I don't care about this specifically, but thought that its existence meant no F31 for us. Thankfully, I was wrong, and the 3-series wagon will be here in the fall. It'll only be available as an awd automatic, and no six-cylinder, but at least it's coming this time around, and there'll even be a diesel!

Hideous. These automakers have have money, power, and smart people working in the company, but that doesn't mean they're out of touch with reality, like the reality of how ugly this thing is 
.
Aston yes, Audi no. If "damn awesome" to you includes a rear end that looks sad all the time, then maybe for you it works.
For me the A7 is ugly.
