You can customize it, and it wouldn't be too weird, because this is an APIView (as opposed to a ModelViewSet from which a human being would expect the GET to return a single model) e.g. you can return several objects from different models in your GET response

def get(self, request, format=None, **kwargs):
    cart = get_cart(request)
    cart_serializer = CartSerializer(cart)
    another_serializer = AnotherSerializer(another_object)

    return Response({
        'cart': cart_serializer.data,
        'another': another_serializer.data,
        'yet_another_field': 'yet another value',
    })
