It's been said that in taste there is no arguing, but this rolling sculpture has been reduced to a 635 wannabe. I've always loved the E9 precisely for its lack of adornment and exquisite restraint. A handful of simple lines enhanced by just the right amount of lipstick and jewelry. At what point did clutter and ostentation become aestetically pleasing? Why not have it over with and add another pair of fog lamps and maybe some RAF badges on a polished grille bar. Would you suggest remodeling a Michelangelo sculpture?
