It seems that corporate decisions coupled with government mandates contributed to the killing of design flair for sedans. The government laws were necessary, but at the same time as cars became safer and more efficient, design and desirability receded.
Yes, the picture was included in a recent article about Buick sales in China and I immediately thought damn that's a beauty.
