I'd agree the Commander Starlight is more attractive than the Champion Starlight, but I still think the Champions were more innovative in Loewy's funky way.

That's what ford does. They come up with a decent mustang design and then gradually, year by year, they screw it up until it's hideous. Every 20 or 30 years they accidentally stumble onto a good looking design and then they start screwing it up all over again.
