5.0 out of 5 stars The Car Design Yearbook 4, March 23, 2006
By Car Fan (Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars A survey no transportation collection should be without., December 13, 2006
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
It will take an in-depth automotive fan to appreciate the very technical The Car Design Yearbook 5 - but any fan of automotive design will find this an essential addition to the latest concept and production cars around the world, representing the fifth installment in Merrell Publishers' yearbook series. Here are A-Z profiles of all such cars of the last 12 months - over a hundred of them - showing exteiror and interior designs and technical machine layout. The profiles on leading auto designers is also an important feature, covering leading designers. Jam-packed with color photos throughout, this is a survey no transportation collection should be without.
