Detroit Auto Show 8: Chevy Camaro Concept - Popular Mechanics (#)

„Even his second design was far better than the one chevy has chosen to run with. Dont get me wrong, when that car hits the streets ill be there at the dealership with money in hand, (as long as there's a Z28 option) but chevy's chosen design is nothing compared to the car this kid Kris Horton has concieved. I think much of the hype over the new car is revolving around his design, and much will fade when buyers see chevys actual decision on this new machine.“

Video: Jaguar designers discuss C-XF project (#)

„I will also add, a lot of cars, vans & 4×4s use or borrow bits from other manufacturers, big deal if jag borrows an idea or some bits from the parts bin. Since all the legislation on car design in the name of safety came in, we have lost some great designs. Personally I think pedestrians should keep off the roads and then car designers can really get going again, and we can see some terrific cars on the road.“

Talk to the hand (#)

„That's not much of a blessing. Many times throughout my marketing and advertising research career, I have had a strong feeling that the research money would have been better spent upfront searching for big consumer and cultural insights to inspire the designers and creatives during the early stages of their idea development.
