Now that you know the truth i hope that you will leave the guy alone. He is just doing his job.


Now I'll be evil and bring BMW into the game.

Eg. lately when X5, CS Concept & X6 Concept were presented exterior (and in some cases also the interior) designers were credited, and were able to present their designs via interviews, BMW-made video promos, were pictured in official promo photos included in press kit, and were present at premieres of "their babies".

Have you ever seen any Audi designer being able to do that? No. Even worse: one of them even left without any credits since his boss claimed he personally had the credit for A5 design. Lame.
