What's special about Chris Bangle is how smart and cultivated he is...And the questions he asks made car designers think differently about cars.
Whether you like it or not, each curve and line on a car designed by his team could be justified because it followed a concept, an idea.
Just look at the old BMW presentations when Chris used to explain the design thinking behind each model...and compare this to newer presentation where they're always just repeating the same generic thing over and over again.
New BMW designs are nice looking, but they lack intelligence and breakthrough thinking, and I guess this is what I miss the most.
