I am sure it looks cool but I cannot get my head around how pointless the extra seat is and the lack of meaningful extra boot space. You lose the limo feel in the back as a result. I think they will sell a lot though!!

+1. I can't see a convincing justification, other than from an exterior styling point of view.

If you love the look of the Sport Turismo and greatly prefer it over the saloon, then go for it!

But do not, in my opinion, opt for the ST on the grounds of it being a five seater, or in the hope that it has a cavernous estate car boot/trunk!

Personally I like the 911-like rear end of the saloon/sedan version. It has great space for four people and their luggage. My ideal five door/four seat GT sports saloon!

It's not a five seater, it's a 4+1. However, the rear seat is imo not suitable for 3 adults. Maximum 2 adults and one (little) child.

Therefore, I prefer the same interior as that of the sedan (is an additional option) which I ordered

Exactly, on your first point! Definitely a 4+1.

And congrats on your order!

I really don't see the point of this... besides from moving the spoiler to the top.

Mostly style over substance, but as AJR says, I bet they'll sell a bucketload of 'em!

It's good though - I was debating whether I should have waited for the more practical version - glad I didn't!
