September 13, 200520 yr http://www.autonews.com/news.cms?newsId=13317 The new Mercedes S-series, Edward Lapham made an interesting observation, it borrows from the 'Bangle Butt' look from BMW. He's right, I had not noticed that.
September 13, 200520 yr It may look similar, but it's much better done and doesn't look offensive like the BMWs.
September 13, 200520 yr It does look very similar to the 7-series; the interior is a complete ripoff though.
September 14, 200520 yr Author It's facinating, in that the Bangle BMWs were so controversial and yet some are adopting similar designs. Personally I liked all of Bangle's work at BMW and ever more so.
September 14, 200520 yr The Bangle bustle has been univerally derided. I don't know why Mercedes, Toyota (Avalon), Acura (RL), and Hyundal (Azera) have adopted the styling theme.
September 14, 200520 yr Author I love the 5 Series' exterior design. [post="13936"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] ..me too...we are in the minority I think lol.
