E55 Design Question
Hey, i'm new to this forum, but anyway, does anyone know the name of the guy who designed the new E55? I want to write to him and tell him how orgasmic this car looks compared to the M5.

Peter Pfeiffer was born on 21 August 1943 in Dallwitz. After training at the State Higher Technical College for Ceramics in Selb, he joined Ford AG as a designer in 1963. In 1968 he moved to Daimler-Benz AG, becoming head of the passenger car and commercial vehicle design department in 1978. Under his leadership, the years that followed saw the appearance of vehicles such as the S, E, C, A, M-Classes and the SLR; in the commercial vehicles area he was involved in the Sprinter, Actros and Atego projects. Since the departure of Bruno Sacco in 1998, Peter Pfeiffer has been director of design for DaimlerChrysler AG.
