W00T!! [Rumor] Chris Bangle is leaving BMW!!!!!

i actually think the styling of the next-gen 4-series isn't too bad...maybe BMW should hire the PShop artists at Auto Bild Zeitung.
 
Isn't it a little late though? I mean their entire lineup from 1 through 7 series has already been Bangled...

Well, Bangle jerked off in BMW's pot of coffee and they've served up as many cups as they could. Now it's time to make a fresh pot😀

Personally I find the E46 (especially in coupe form) looking really dated by now. I really don't understand why people like to romanticized out-going models. The previous E38 7-series looks like ass compared to the E65. The E39 5-series while still looking nice, is dated and boring compared to the E60. Bangle did some questionable stuff like the huge trunk gap and the Bangle-butt, but overall his designs have been quite exciting (if somewhat flamboyant).
I agree with this 100%.

This looks 50x better than the E65

Good, he can fix all the recent Nissan/Infiniti mistakes.

??? What mistakes (besides the chintzy interior appointments)
The exterior mistakes of the new Maxima, the new Quest, the Murano, the Pathfinder Armada, the G35 and the FX. The only strikingly good-looking vehicle from either Nissan or Infiniti currently is the Infiniti M45.

Then again, I seem to have very different opinions of what looks good. I have personally liked every one of Bangle's Bimmers.

Funny, the Nissan/Infiniti that gets the most crap is the M45 so I guess that your styling preferences ARE out of whack😉 Then again...914... 😉

Dude your opinion is the exact opposite to the majority of people. With the exception of the new Maxima, it does indeed look like ass. But the Murano, G35s, and FX are good.

Nah E46 M3 just looks so damn powerful. It's more betterer.
I like the E46 front fascia better for sure, but this E36 looks very pow-a-ful too with the fender flare action going on.
