I really admire him, maybe not for his creations, but for the overall influence he had and still has in car design. And he had the courage to walk out of the car industry to do his own projects.
The lci e60 And e90 we?re beautiful cars. And it took bmw to the next level. Bmw would be so behind if the e60 and e90 didn?t change so radically. Say what you want but it was necessary. Now that 7 series... not so sure
