apparently business week and I have very different tastes, so much sexy in the list, pacers and pintos and things oh my

[skunk]

yeah theres a bunch of cars in there that i like

[skunk]

well like 5 but yeah

[yellowdatsun]

The reason most people thing the Enzo is pretty is because 1) it's a ferrari, 2) it's so freakin fast, and 3) anything with that many air ducts must be cool, right?. But when it comes down to pure aesthetics, it's really not very attractive. There's a couple cars on the list that I like, but this has been one of the very few lists over the past many years that pretty much hits the nail on the head with most of the designs it shows. All the other lists like this I've seen are half assed, and totally incorrect. This one is pretty good.

VW thing is ugly but i still think it is a cool ride, delorean was on the list? i like some of the cars too

[metalmonkey47]

wtf? A lot of those weren't ugly.

 

Hummer and Escalade shoulda been at the top though. lol

[Z-train]

I dispise Chevies but how can you consider a Chevelle with a bed ugly?The Delorean wasn't ugly,neither was the Bricklin.More bored under-qualified automotive writers justifying their jobs.

[hessianben]

as long as the Pontiac Aztek is in there i'm happy.

[Skib]

but how can you consider a Chevelle with a bed ugly?

 

thats how ^^

 

 

 

good thing the PT cruiser is on there :P but for the last 50 years I think its covering to many newer cars on that list....... they obviously never went and saw a B210 :rofl:

[pharouh]

Yeah, I liked 4 or 5 of them too. Some of them weren't really ugly,but they were just poorly made.

If they had put 620's on there,I would have had to kick someone's ass.

[DRIVEN]

I'm proud to say Ive only owned 3 on the list.

[PurePontiacKid]

ughghgh I want a Chevette and a Pinto and a Gremlin and a Pacer soooo bad... epic cars... I just wanna see how they'd look slammed lmao

 

I like how they call the El Camino out on having hub caps... when it really doesn't, it's got trim rings haha

[INDY510]

The AC Gremlin?...... that car is so cool ........... party on Garth

 

 

The Sparow, Pt Cruiser, SSR, Prius, H2, Aztec, Element, baja, and the Nissan Cube are all ugly

 

 

But the PT Prowler, Aston Martin Logonda, DeLorean, Enzo, 7-series BMW, Chevette, Toyota Van, brat, Taraus, and Mercury Sable are all winners

 

 

 

Where the FU(K is the Honda Ridgeline???? ..... it's not a truck, or a car,,, so matbe it's not valid?

[hughdogz]

I like the Subaru Brat. It was my favorite Stomper back in the day (besides the 280zx). One of my favorite Hot Wheels was the "Packin' Pacer"

[datzenmike]

Finally something more ugly than the Aztec:

 

[INDY510]

It's not nearly as ugly once you look through the rear hatch glass........ and see two giant red valve covers and a huge intake.

 

 

Also,,, I have heard one at high rpms on the freeway........... it doesn't sound ugly

[nismo dr]

Eddie Griffin's Enzo driving skills

Engine and engine sounds aside.... it's not a pretty looking car. I understand that beauty is not always universal and is often simply a preference.

 

For all it's high tech esoteric-ness, (I heard a brake job is $20K) I would expect for all that money to at least enjoy looking at the car when I'm not driving it. (I would wear a disguise if I was)

[sinner720st]

they threw some cars in there, that should have been in a different list title (poorly built) that yugo is sweet looking. if they think the yugo is "ugly" then a classic mini cooper should be there. that scion though... way over the top, it looks like hot wheels hood rat design or something

X2.

 

I just don't like the look of the car. I mean, think of how many Datsun's you could buy JUST with the cost of insurance every 6 months. Not to mention you could probably build a much faster, better looking car for the cost of that one.

there are a few cars that dont belong on this list (the delorien topping them) but for the most part rather right on

[Skib]

ok i agree with you there them ugly ass usa bumpers kinda killed the looks but thats why you rip them off and slam it :D

[Skib]

Id love to have a beat up one, slam it, with ZG flairs, super wide JDM wheels, fender mirrors and a monster SR :D

[HRH]

Nice! I would much rather have the Cuda. Skib, I'm with you on the B210. U-G-L-Y, she ain't got no alibi! She ugly! :D

 

Then again I like '69 El Caminos, and many people find cars with beds absolutely hideous.

 

F10s are also another ugly car that should be on the list.
