2010 BMW Z4 leaked brochure image reveals back side
December 5, 2008
Looks like a great photo leak. New styling is fantastic in BMW, beats their boring design language of yesteryear of slab sides, and bad interiors. Since the introduction of the flame surfacing and design language by Chris Bangle, BMW has bought some much needed new customers in to their mix and bought some excitement that gets people talking about their cars. Can't wait to see it in the metal.
Officially Confirmed: Ford Considers Selling Volvo
December 5, 2008
Ford US has put an offer out on Volvo so it can prove to their Government that it has assets that are worth something (unlike their pension plans). There's a reason Ford US put it's other brands to market first. Volvo is a premium manufacturer and comments I've read about boxy styling or inferior interiors are just plain silly. Interior style is a high point of this brand and no one does a shoulder line better, nor does any other brand know their clients better. Boxy styling was a thing of their past which lead to a great product that was functional and useable. In Australia it was the no 1 for around 15 years, consecutively. Volvo was one of the most profitable car brands in the world before Volvo Corp sold off it's cars division. I think the most profitable is Porsche (hence it's growing interest in VW). I hope that Volvo Corp buy back their cars division and some Indian / Chinese manufacturer try their hand at using someone else's technology.
