To design function, while by no means easy, is obvious. But to design romance? The Maserati Quattroporte V, designed by Pininfarina, illustrates how its done - as explained in the most recent AUTO DIDAKT video (link below). #cardesign #maserati #pininfarina #italiandesign #carculture

Spot-on Christopher. Gorgeous thing it was, beautifully elucidated here. It staggered me how they fell to earth with the following generation. Or, worse, the truncated version of the following generation – an insult to the name Ghibli.
You’re always to the point Christopher 🏆👏👏👏
Another great job, Christopher. Hardly anyone can articulate the message of automotive design as perfectly as you can.
Great video… and now I’m wanting a quattroporte.
I‘ve loved them since they were new. Definitely on the list for when my daughter outgrows my current toy. Also, thank you for introducing me to the genius concept of sprezzatura. This will make it much easier for me to ignore all the squeaks and rattles if I ever own a beautiful Italian car of marginal build quality. It‘s not a fault, it‘s part of the charm!
