[QUOTE="funfer_fahrer, post: 165995, member: 2733"] Chris Bangle seems to attract the media like the honey pot. But who was the man who preceded bangle at BMW? He was one of those quiet achievers who was rarely in the spotlight. A quietly determined man, he has avoided the glamour and glitz of the international sporlight, prefering instead to let his designs do the talking for him. And for that reason, I admire Claus Luthe. His legacy at BMW has been the successful blending of form, functionality and elegance into every BMW designed on his watch. The only comment Luthe would make about Bangle's BMW was, 'I believe he will develop a new BMW design philosophy that will be quite different from mine. Whether it will as good for BMW we will have to wait and see.' You gained the impression that he was almost afraid that all the years of cleverly establishing that styling continuity so important in BMW's aura were in jeopardy. Extracted from BMW car magazine. June 2006 by Gavin Farmer. [/QUOTE]
