Bangle Fans

Sarcasm… I recently received an email that they have added him for an event at the Hilton Head Concours d’Elegance the first weekend on November. $375 a head for this specific event.

Feel like I’ve told this story before but I met Bangle many years back and got to spend ~30 minutes with him and a small group of coworkers chatting about his design approach. I know it’s controversial but he was a pretty nice guy.

Nice people end up making all sorts of horrible things.

I bet he was (and is) a really nice guy.
I don't blame him. I blame those above him....
Problem is that his bosses allowed what his misguided mind steered BMW to - a path we are still on IMO...
