You're so old, you won't even be on the road in a few years from now. Your opinion is irrelevant. No offense. And the majority of the millennial generation has gotten completely screwed over by boomers they won't have the same buying power. They are too busy struggling to get basic things like clean air, food, water, housing, education and healthcare. What do you have left? You have a lot of new money buyers who have very different value systems.

There was a very good interview with the BMW design head who talks about the future of design after the media "outrage" over the new BMW design language.

Here are some quotes from the interview;
“It’s a zeitgeist which is changing, If you look at how loud some competitors are without performance, we are crossing (into a) time where people get more superficial. "

"You have some eras where you wear trousers which are like elephant feet.

"This is really what customers are looking for because they look for status. They want to stand out.”

“You can’t design an icon. You can try to give a really distinctive look to your product that’s not (like) the mass of product on the road. It stands out. And then, with time, it will be so remarkably different. … This is how you can create icons.”
