| Your favorite BMW designer Out of all the BMW designers that have made their contributions in the form of production BMW models, which do you like the most and why? I nominate Joji Nagashima and Anders Warming. Joji and Anders have both made probably the two best interpretations of the flame design philosiphy that transalate into aesthetically pleasing shapes and overall design. Not to mention Joji did the first gen Z3, E36, & E39. |

| Re: Your favorite BMW designer I nominate: Anders Warming (Z4) Davide Arcangeli (E60 5er) Both used flame surfacing perfectly: wild and sporty on Z4, elegant and dynamic on E60 5er. I'm very sorry Arcangeli died. He was a great designer. ![]() |

The man is incrudible.. he is one of my idols in car design. was really great (and surprising) to see him at his stand. He is my favourite former BMW designer. From the current ones it's Andres Warming. His Z4 is just stunning and so insperational!

| Re: Your favorite BMW designer Little bit off-topic but we have a member at m5board.com who ordered the new fisker car, in fact is 610bhp of Fisker Tramonto 001/150. The first of 150 cars.
