How bizarre to click on a video and see Chris Bangle being driven down Flinders Street past some of the most boring vehicular appliances the nation has!
Wow hate on bangle by the design conservatives here in the comments. Personally I say way to go! I think maybe bangle is guilty of being a bit distant from consumerism but that's not a complaint in my book.
Most cars nowadays look the same. In my reprices mirror I accidentally mistake BMW with Skoda and on and on. No Uniqueness anymore. But why? Just economic reasons (Porsche, VW)?
How did BMW hire and hold onto this man for such time is incredible. What he did as a designer (pure sabotage) is amazing. How he kept his job is what we can all learn from.
boy638 good spotting - that's my car an Allroad A6 - Chris had left BMW when we shot this. We approached BMW Australia about getting a BMW car for the day and they declined. So an Audi it was:)
I guess he's concentrating on Bangle and Associates now. Chris was great fun company and super, super bright. It was a really enjoyable day! I hope you get interview him someday...
The only good looking car he designed was the 1 series. Otherwise he single-handedly sunk the former BMW elegant design. All they make now is over styled junk.
Quite possibly the best BMW designer ever.
This guy made the e60 look so beautiful and muscular!!
E60 M5!
Chris Bangle is the man!
The E46 Was The Best Car Ever Designed Thanks Chris Bangle!
You should thank Wolfgang Reitzle for E46
@@brightenupccfor design Chris Bangle Wins!
2:08 The quiet underpaid brilliant folks. I’m in a similar boat 😢
I really wanted to know more about Chris Bangle when he was working and then all of sudden he left.

He's greedy, but a great influence.

Matt Hopper i would love to interview Chris Bangle one day too, seems like a fun guy to talk to. i hardly see him in any recent motor shows sadly

The worst designer of all. Good to learn from him and BMW, never to hire or promote on hype. Took them 17 years before firing him.
Your comment shows you have shit for brains.
the guy who handicapped bmw, he made me look the mercedes way and i'm not going back, although he's gone so his damage is permanent
Your opinion is not shared
@@georgerebreev yup
Not shared at all, look at an e60 today, didn’t age at all

No The E46...
