In Memoriam: Marcello Gandini, an Automotive Design Master
The world lost one of its preeminent car designers today, as Marcello Gandini has passed away at the age of 85.

Gandini’s prolific portfolio of work made a permanent mark on automotive design.

Ah, fall. The leaves have changed and are dropping to the ground below. Football is in full swing.

And another new model year of vehicles is taking over parking lot space at the local car stores.
But it’s a bit chilly. The leaves are slippery when wet. Baseball season has almost ended. And you’re suffering from a bellyache because ten bags of Skittles was just one too many. All is not well, particularly for the new vehicle nameplates that head off into the Hallowe’en darkness to meet the automotive Grim Reaper. (Or is that just Lee Iacocca?)
These are all the vehicles we’re losing after the 2016 model year.
