Bangled

In reference to Chris Bangle, BMW's head of bad design. It refers to something that was great, but has been reworked into something new and horrible which doesn't represent the previous version's awesometude.

I'd buy a BMW 5 series, but only if the new versions weren't so Bangled.
New Coke was seriously Bangled.
