Yup, the 4 series Grand Coupe does look like what the 3 series should have been. LOL. The 4GC was not out yet back in late June, when I was shopping for a car. I did test drive the 428xi Convertible. The chasis dynamics was very good. What really stood out was how the Dynamic Handling Package drastically changed ride quality: on comfort setting it could glide over rail tracks as if they were not there. I thought that was quite eerie for a sport coupe. The 240hp turbo 4cyl was somewhat under-powered for the AWD convertible, but should do fine for the lighter Grand Coupe.
As for Q5, try the SQ5 with lowered chasis and 300+hp, or better yet, try the Porsche Macan built on the same platform, lowered chasis, 340-400hp, and Torque Vectoring AWD. The $50-90k Macan is shaping up to be the hottest selling Porsche, with reviewers comparing it to the 911!
