Cheif of design for BMW worldwide, Chris Bangle, has been under a lot of fire about his controversial designs for the new BMW's that have come out within the past year. Many claim them to be horrible, terrible, and downright bad, claiming that they are going to be responsible for BMW's downfall, as people will simply stop buying the badly designed cars. These claims may be outlandish, but that is the extent of the disagreement that some, no, many people feel for the works of Chris and his team. While there are people who think Chris' designs are just fine, or in some cases good, this whole Chris Bangle ordeal has been fairly major, with so many people being opposed to the designs.
People have already started taking action, and one such form of action can be seen in an online petition, entitled "Stop Chris Bangle", which urges BMW to fire the designer and seek someone else, making the claim that he "ruins" the cars as a whole. The petition can be viewed here and with over 7000 signatures and counting, there are obviously a lot of people up in arms about the issue.
The point of this topic is to ask you, what you think about this whole issue. Should CB be kept as a designer, and do you think his designs are, on the whole, good? Or do you think that he is ruining the cars, and should be fired? Only time will answer this question, but for now, state your opinions.
