Exactly!

From The Continental: The Best and Worst of the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, speaking about the MB AMG Vision Gran Turismo:
Quote:
It is juvenile, garish, and politically incorrect, and somehow I don’t believe it would meet the approval of Daimler’s long-time chief designer, Bruno Sacco. (Bruno’s the godfather of restrained German design epitomized by vehicles such as the W126 S-class and the W201 “Baby Benz.”) But the AMG Vision Gran Turismo concept is a wonderful celebration of the joy of driving.
