This reminds me of a time in 2003 just after the launch of the BMW 5er (E60).
A Customer reminded me that he was going to buy the next M5 but will not because of the "Bangle designed 5er".
Not only was the designer of the 5er - David Arcangeli (who sadly died of Leukemia before he saw the final production car).
But as I reminded him do not worry sir, I am sure there will be a customer for your car!
