...product is as much about lifestyle, of course, as the car. "Like rock 'n' roll and the movies, industrial design is one of the great art forms of the 20th century, and cars are the very height of industrial design," says Stephen Bayley, one of Britain's leading industrial-design gurus and the curator of a current exhibition on automobiles at London's Royal College of Art. No product but the car demands such elegance in spite of its complexity. No other consumer commodity is expected to be so exclusive and yet so affordable. So personal. So emotional...

Heartbreak...Success...Glory" with an Aristotelian three-act structure--rise, fall and rehab--and florid narration: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers "came out of the South--driven by jangling guitars and led by a rock-'n'-roll rebel!"

"Some of our stories end happily, some...
