    Did you read my post? I'm not really sure that that makes any sense, are you asking me whether i think the Z32 has better lines than, say, Bangle's E65 design? Absolutely.




    E92 though? Nah. His stuff is hit and miss, but imho a lot of his misses were BIG misses.

    His was chief designer at the time. I mean the back is called the "bangle butt."

    Do you know something different?

    Are you kidding me? The E65 is probably Bangle's most infamous chassis design. The rear-end design was responsible for coining the term "bangle butt". So no, I don't "think" bangle was behind the E65 7-series, I know he was.

    edit - EJ beat me to it!

    I remember a slight roast session on Top Speed that involved Simon Cowell.
