The original DS was very innovative. You could leave your car for painting but still drive it to work, or in the worst case, you could do it on 3 wheels.๐
The DS was my favorite car when I was a kid โ I still remember those Louis de Funรจs movies where it always made a grand entrance (or a hilarious exit). I think itโs great when a brand dares to break new ground in design. Sure, itโs subjective โ some will ...
But I think all manufacturers are now taking a bet on Asia and there, maybe this kind of design is a message of luxury. Look how the BMW rings have gone from extreme horizontal to vertical patterns giving huge vertical grill face.
