All designers have hits and misses like everyone in life. If he did the E46, Kudos. Beautiful cars. The Z4 was pretty good especially the coupe. The rest was ugly. Even years later, the stuff was never as attractive as the early stuff. Of course taste is personal, but the front of the 6 series, the 7 series and even the E90/92s never "beautiful". I think everyone has to be honest about the body of work and later is his career, some of the stuff was so hideous that I am glad he left BMW. The 1 series was not right. Audi stole the show. Look at the A6/S6, A4, A8s etc. Those cars were beautiful and if they would've had BMW drivetrains, that would've been amazing.
