GM and Design (Ford Too)

In order for General Motors to make inways back into it's share of the car market, it must build cars with radically different styles that are completely appealing. It is obvious that a car that will last and not have the least of repairs matters too. But for now it must be a revolution in design (NOT EVOLUTION) that will drive buyers back into the showrooms.

For too long (26+ years) most of the cars manufactured all have a similar look. If you put many of these cars together, you'd see my meaning. They have rounded edges, if not round all together, and have the "aero" look. It's time for a design change! Get some sharp angles in there, and work the body so there is more flush sides. I am not a designer, but it can be easily seen if one just imagines on this design standard for quite a few moments.

Whilst GM is working on these new and fantastic designs, they can concurrently engineer better, work at the durability issue in all phases of manufacturing, AND use the best parts. AND COMMUNICATION AMONG THE DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS IS A NECESSITY!

Management must decree this, and if they do their job well, I see a larger percent of the market for their company.
