Motor Trend have named the 30 who count in the Automobile industry and guess who topped the list, that's right, Chris Bangle.
List here.

Bangle has done some good work, Period ! But how come the genius Giorgetto Giugiaro is not on the list :cursing:
-
The focus is on people from different areas that moved the industry forward. Guigiaro is a great designer but Bangle made it to the list because he was a designer and a visionary.Comment

You need to hear him explain his design. His is a visionary. Listen to the speech he gave when he presented during one of the TED events... youtube it....Originally posted by ahmad.alkhalil View Post

I don't really find any ugly design of his .. I respect and adore every single design of the new ERA .. maybe its not your style, but it's kind of unfair to say ugly .. don't ya think ?Originally posted by ahmad.alkhalil View PostDrive To The Satisfaction... A Dreamer's Pursuit

no I think, for example, until the latest F line the 7 series was an ugly lazy looking thing!!! hated everything about the exterior of the 7 series. The bond 7-series (forget the number) is still my favorite!!!
Just my opinion... ugly!sigpic

The E38 is by far the best looking 7-Series ever made. Bangle might have done some really bad looking mistakes but let's not forget that the E39 and the E46 were both designed under his supervision and the gorgeous MKI Z4 as well !Originally posted by ahmad.alkhalil View Postsigpic5/94' E36 318iS 5-spd

I didn't say all his designs were crap... I just think that the flagship of BMW, the 7 series, was by FAR the ugliest among its competitors!sigpic
