amazing,

This review is from: The Car Design Yearbook 6: The Definitive Annual Guide to All New Concept and Production Cars Worldwide (Hardcover)
This book is great because it's got some awesome cars in it and spendid descriptions; it will appeal equally to serious car enthusiasts and industry professionals. It is a must-have and worth its £20 price-tag for both types of buyer. It includes really excellent drawings by car designers, which are very interesting and add to the overall appeal. Buy.

The Car Design Yearbook 4,
By Car Fan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Car Design Yearbook 4: The Definitive Annual Guide to All New Concept and Production Cars Worldwide (Car Design Yearbook) (Hardcover)
This volume continues the format and quality of volumes 1-3, with the same strengths (beautiful photos, appealing coffee table appearance, etc.) and weaknesses (commentary isn't always helpful; every car gets about the same depth of coverage, whether it's a production-ready Fiat or an amazing concept car). If you liked the earlier editions, you'll enjoy this one too.

Great Photo Record of the Automotive Year, Worthless Editorial,
By D. Sims - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Car Design Yearbook: The Definitive Annual Guide to All New Concept and Production Cars Worldwide (Hardcover)
For those who want a great record of the automotive year in review, this series has assembled a great collection of photos, from corporate press kits distributed to media at auto shows. The comments by Steven Newbury verbally describe the designs in the photos and provide his personal critiques, which are at times baffling. More in-depth stories behind the designs, the development of the concept and the team behind it would make for more entertaining reading. The designer profiles in the back of the book are more interesting. Enjoy leafing through the photos and the attractive format in which the material has been assembled.

great collection and designer insights,
By C. Buettner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Car Design Yearbook: The Definitive Annual Guide to All New Concept and Production Cars Worldwide (Hardcover)
A great annual collection of showcars as well as production cars and focusses on the design aspects rather than pure cost and performance lists that other car yearbooks often do.
A little section with designer interviews is very entertaining. The images are plenty and nice but could as always be bigger, better and more, especially for the concept cars of which you usually wouldn't find much media coverage. Overall a great reference series to go back to! it would be interesting to create a book of design reviews like the one Automobile magazine publishes monthly... |
