When BMW puts out a coupe that looks like this, I'll think they've finally hired a designer:


Until then, their cars are very conservative and predictable.

On the other hand, the design direction that BMW has signaled is scary and awful:


I'd almost say bring back Henrik Fisker. But he's been busy for the last decade starting automobile companies that have failed. The only thing Fisker has been good at recently is selling stock and losing hundreds of millions of dollars.

Right now we've got the automobile version of Dan Guerrero at BMW hiring designers. Just awful.
