Chris Bangle: Good/Bad?

Just wondering what everyone thinks of Chris Bangle? I know a lot of people are not too keen about him... but I have heard other people say positive things about him... see him maybe 'leading the way' with BMW?

lets hear it!

I love the 3 series design and I like the X coupe, but I've seen some other design ideas and I don't like them much.

I also don't like his redesign of the 3 series headlights. The original lights look serious. They new design looks cheap and frankly a little gay.

He needs someone to moderate his actions and stick to the heart and soul of BMW.

Maybe like me.

You should have added a third option to the poll,

c) Neither good nor bad.

Even though i love the design of the X Coupe and the E46, i can't believe what he's doing to the range now.
Marijuana is legal in the UK now.... any connection?
