f1anatic Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 http://www.autoweek.nl/images/480/8842.jpg http://www.autoweek.nl/newsdisp.php?cache=no&ID=3165 Unbelievable. Chris Bangle messed up a perfectly stilish, beautiful, elegant, sex-appealing line of cars. While it certainly may hhave been true that driving Bimmers gets you the hottest chicks, I tend to see this car more like birth control... Open up the link to the website...then click the Bimmer pix to see a few more shots of this garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evolutionmovement Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 That's after Hartge uglified it further. I can't read German well, but I didn't see Bangle as responsible for this particular monstrosity (at least in detail). Not to defend the guy - I think he's an assmonkey - but the standard 6-series isn't quite that bad. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axis008 Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Yeah I like the 6-series. I have no idea why Hartge would do that to the car. Their products in the past haven't been that ugly. -ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest *Jedimaster* Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Looks like the clay prototype melted under the lights and they said "Ahh, fuck it- cast it anyway" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deer Killer Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 They still use clay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest *Jedimaster* Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Yup- maybe not everyone, but I was watching a show on it and once they build a computer model, they sculpt it full size. I guess they use several different kinds of clay- one that hardens quickly and is really tough and another that hardens slowly but isn't as tough.

Drift Monkey Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 1 Bangle bastardized BMW 1 Hartge body kit Mix well and allow to cool. Check for ugliness. When ugliness is seen, remove from oven and serve to BMW humpers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f1anatic Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 Was Chris Bang'er alive when this monstruosity was being conceived ? In all honesty, for a 1960's model...it looks good...I would much rather take this than the one above (based on looks alone) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v37/NickWay/Cars/2000CS.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daverino Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 that thing looks like a beaver! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
