According to BMWTalk, Chris Bangle is leaving BMW. Like BMWTalk is saying, he was the most controversial in the recent history.
Bangle was the first American that joined the BMW design department in 1992. He worked together with his design team for the current 3- and 5-series.

A qoute of BMWTalk what we do like is:

Bangle is known for the ill-mannered nickname “Bangle Butt”, a term that has become tantamount with the distinct rear ends of the BMW models designed and produced during Bangle’s reign.

We hope his leaving won’t effect the upcoming models of BMW to much. We of BMW-News do like the famous rear ends of the current BMW’s.
