Record-setting over at BMW
but not the good kind (for them) .....
Warp 7 on 7 Series redo: BMW working fast to revamp flagship's design
By AUTOWEEK
We have this on the highest authority: Your excuses for wanting to dangle BMW design chief Chris Bangle from a tree for what he did to your beloved 7 Series will be all but eliminated by year's end.
BMW sources in Germany tell us that Bangle and his team have been hard at work restyling the car since moments after the reskinned 7 premiered to "glaringly negative" reaction at the 2001 Frankfurt show.
Look for an all-new tail and face, with an improved trunk-lid line and the elimination of the Dame Edna eyebrows (see dame-edna.com, then you'll understand) over the headlights.
With the 5 Series being the big news for the Frankfurt show in September, the redone 7 Series will appear perhaps "as early as Tokyo [Oct. 25 to Nov. 6] or maybe Detroit, but no later," our source reports, following the fastest model redo in the history of the proud Munich firm

Not to be rude, but "welcome to last week..."
I marked the post "Off Topic", so maybe you didn't see it...<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/238630.phtml">Uh oh, back to the drawing board...</a></li></ul>
