What do you think are the most hideous vehicles on the road these days?

Here's my pick of some ugly vehicles.

First off, there's the GM "Dustbuster" minivans (Chevy Lumina/Pontiac Trans-Sport) from 90's:

See a bit of a resemblance here?

Then there's Nissans. I'd say they're the leader right now in putting out hideous vehicles. I'll start off with their own ugly minivan--the Nissan Quest:

Then there's the Nissan Cube:

And don't forget crossovers--or even worse: Luxury crossovers! Enter the 2007 Lincoln MKX:

Got any other ugly vehicles you'd like to share?

Ugliest car ever: The PT "Loser".

Oh, I forgot about the "Loser Cruisers"! I have to walk by one of those things every day on my way into work.

Wrong, this is the ugliest car ever.

And there's this lump of ugly and its spiritual twin:

I have to completely disagree about the Porsche Panamera. I don't think Porsche has ever made an ugly car.

I think, considering the motors that are in it, that Porsche expected people just to think their eyes were blurred by the speed. Cause it's hideous looking.

From a Porsche lover:

keyboardlover · « **Reply #8 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 09:25:07 »

I think all the cars you posted are hideous looking with the exception of the Porsche, and I think the Panamera looks absolutely nothing like the Crossfire. But to each their own. I think the Panamera is sexy personally.

It's ok, I don't think less of you for it, heh.

More ugliness:

Malphas · « **Reply #10 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 09:29:07 »

And basically every BMW made after the mid/late 90's. Way to ruin a perfectly good car.

Same with Mercedes. Used to make some of the best looking cars in the world, then merged with Chrysler: and started churning out crap like this:

I also like the panamera and post 2005 bmw's. And then there's this.. the Fiat Multipla.

fohat.digs · « **Reply #13 on:** Thu, 13 December 2012, 10:31:30 »

WTF?

That Fiat is the first actually ugly car shown here.

The former Soviet Union should be granted an exception - virtually all of their cars were ugly.

This.

I find the Aventador more artfully designed.....

personally, I quite like lada cars, like 2107 and niva. Niva is still producing after 20 years or so. It is a 4wd suv?? Or whatever with 1,6l engine.

...I don't think Porsche has ever made an ugly car.

Well you did say "car" but I'm sure you are familiar with the Porsche Cayenne. It makes me die a little inside.

I am on a quick lil break but I thought I would list a few (almost too many to mention).

-Pontiac Aztec (a 12 year old designed it with broken legos)

-Nissan Leaf (it upsets me greatly that this exists, Nissan as a whole should be fired for this, ugh, lost my appetite)

-Porsche Cayenne (looks like an overly glorified and expensive designer womens hair dryer)

-Scion xA (depends on the day of the week for me, but usually it just looks like a stack of soggy pancakes)

-Toyota Echo/1st Gen Prius (indistinguishably weak, desinger was 100+ yrs old and owned 35 cats)

-GM EV1 (good job @$$holes, now no one wants an electric. Starting a trend, enter the "Leaf")

-2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo (Few people know it was desgined and made with a septic extruder)

-Pontiac Trans Sport (looks like failed Star Tours ride)

Might add 30-40 more in a bit. Sticking with US availability because I don't want to offend other countries and cultures bad tastes.

IIRC Ripster drove a Honda Odyssey. I think you're thinking of itlnstln's car.

Which is why I referred to them as a "couple of lesbos."

Slantnose minivans, yuck.
I agree with tjcaustin on the Aztec. Just fugly.
Baldgye, idk what you think is hideous about that truck, but I'm kinda hillbilly.
modulor, that awesome face mazda is funny.

I almost bought a baja and the only reason I didn't is because there was no behind/underseat storage. That being said, I don't agree with it being more ugly than an aztek.

Here's an old BusinessWeek article, they list 50 ugly cars in 50 years. Worth a look. Tell your favohates (lol).

You know, I actually saw one of those the other day. I didn't even know that any still existed! I thought they all went the way of the Yugo and LeCar.

And speaking of the Renault LeCar, those things were pretty ugly too:

Computer-Lab in Basement · « **Reply #35 on:** Fri, 14 December 2012, 08:35:48 »

Oh yeah, there are still some Chevy Chevettes around... they were actually decent cars, very fuel efficient for their time.

there's a guy with an Eagle who parks near my place and every time I see it I chuckle a bit and part of me dies..

I gotta +1 for the Panamera and the Aztek. Both horrifically ugly cars... at least the Porsche can go faster than my forester (almost)

Is that guy for real? Description is awesome. My favorite part: "furthermore, the starter is touching the body now and if a piece of the body from the front falls off it can prematurely start and the car can blow up because of all the unburned fuel that floods the engine"

I like the look of the Baja. The 3.3L H6 engine is nothing to sneeze at either. Nothing is more ugly than the Aztek. Even the Fiat thing looks nicer that that abomination.

the aztek sold so horribly, pontiac paid their employees to drive them so they can be see on the road.
