This was during the time when American cars were, for the most part, terrible. The big three had become sloppy and greedy and they just didn't build truly reliable cars. At the same time Honda and Toyota gave us reliable cars at decent prices. Jan 10 13 06:35 pm Link Vintagevista wrote: My parent's have one, nice cars. That woody wagon paint job is horrendous, special edition or not. Jan 10 13 06:36 pm Link Guss W wrote: If you just saw off the top half of it, this car could become a decent 90ies style convertible.

Jan 10 13 07:13 pm Link Smart cars manage to have a whole lot of hideous in a little package, but they do serve a function. Cadillac Cimarron (sp?). There was a period when the Corvette had no design charm. Oh, I think the Aztek was designed by Nike. Jan 10 13 07:16 pm Link The Nissan Juke. To me it looks like a Jelly Bean after someone put it in their mouth, decided it was a flavor they didn't like, and spit it out. Jan 10 13 07:17 pm Link There were quite a few of these on the streets of Las Vegas when I first moved here. Sebring Citicar Jan 10 13 07:19 pm Link Subaru Baja Jan 10 13 07:25 pm Link Evan Hiltunen wrote: BLASPHEMY!

Go to Paris, France for a week, and then try to decide on the ugliest car you saw while there. SRSLY... Jan 10 13 07:43 pm Link 1966 Tatra (made in Czech republic), down the street from my house.

It's pretty ugly - but it was a stock car used design - so,, they even out. Jan 10 13 10:08 pm Link About 20 years ago, I can't remember if it was Hot Rod or Car Craft magazine, but they did a series called "dare to be different". Everyone and their brother has or knows someone who had a Camaro, Mustang, Charger, Corvette, Grand National, GS, GTO, Chevelle, Nova, Firebird, Impala, etc etc. The purpose of this article was to highlight those who did something different ... There were people with Studebakers, Desotos, Packards and many other things that a person doesn't see on the road every day. It's true that some of these cars aren't pleasing to the eye, but it sorta makes them pleasing to me. I'd have never known some of them existed otherwise. Jan 10 13 10:25 pm Link The Nash Metropolitan is very ugly... ...but I LOVE the hood ornament.

Jan 11 13 06:20 am Link DougBPhoto wrote: This was the first thing I thought of before I even entered the thread. Jan 11 13 06:31 am Link Some fantastically ugly cars here. Of the ones I have driven, my niece's Nissan Juke gets my vote. WTF with the lights on top of the hood?? You can see them while you are driving, lol. It would also be a strong competitor in the worst car names category. Jan 11 13 06:36 am Link Laura UnBound wrote: Yes.
