In short, it does its job very, very well. That trip would have been painful in the 1er!

Scroll down to the bottom for ED pics of our GT:

And FWIW, I read somewhere BMW recently stated that all their new vehicles post GT will have the LED angel eyes. Not sure if that meant all series or what...
Albeit the looks are a bit of a departure for BMW...this car drives like a dream. It has all the bells and whistles that a 7 has, but tons less money. I got rid of a 335 for this ride and can not be happier. Performance is great. Love this new engine, angel eyes, and the convenience of the hatch. I also like being able to sit higher, as I am a munchkin. The visibility is much nicer than the 335's or 550 we had.
In short...I love this 550 GT.
