Early 2000s may not be peak design, but it was peak car. All the modern manufacturing practice, but pre-giant screen and pre direct injection.
at one point I started thinking that 2000-2010 was a horrible time for car design (and it is if you only focus on some particularly ungainly DaimlerChrysler models), but there was enough wild stuff where companies were *going for it* that persuaded me otherwise. Much more than 2010-2020 IMO

Art of Motoring returns to Waterloo Place, London, from 28-31 October, with work from 32 artists. Entry is free
When you need a car with history's most brittle turbo manifold from a 323 GTX, but you also want a car that will leak like a MF every time it rains.
The Australian Ford Capri was conceived from the outset with exports to North America in mind. In 1991 it was launched there under the Mercury badge, in standard and turbocharged 1.6-litre versions, the latter shown wearing the XR2 badge (borrowed from Ford Europe) in this US brochure.
