Pontiac Aztec and all current Dodge models.

red67 07-07-2007 12:42 AM

anything with three wheels doesn't look right.

yeah this is a porsche and technically its ugly too, the fuchs are 911 inspired so this thread definately belongs in the porsche 911 technical forum...

or alternatively.... also making this thread relevant for this forum...

i bought this porsche on ebay recently and am not quite getting the hp figures stated in the manual and accelaration isnt what i expected, but fuel consumption has been brilliant for my first 5000 miles (at welll over 5000 miles per gallon) but my battery keeps going dead - is it an alternator problem? - can anyone help?

It's hard to imagine this car actually made it to production. Couldn't someone have atleast spoken up and said that maybe they should spend a little more money in the design phase before dropping the ton of money to put it into production. :rolleyes:

That car almost makes the Pontiac Aztec look good...almost.

Citroens are ugly but still cool in a quirky kind of way.

yeah its amazing. it's also amazing that people spend hard earned cash and buy them!

I think some corporations are just into the look of things too much, that is why I say Dodge is ugly. Going down the road and a dodge comes at you, they all just about look the freakin same! From the Viper to the Ram truck they all have that damn ugly front end. Yes I know Audi has this trend going as well, but could you imagine the Mustang with a truck grill? And I am not a Mustang fan either.

Let's not forget the Fiat Multipla in the late 1990's :http://www.minivan.pl/img/mid/53-fiat-multipla.jpg

The Rodius is certainly one of the top three worst-looking cars ever. On the yukometer it goes right up through ugly, accelerates hard (for the only time) through 'so ugly it's cool' and blasts through the cool ceiling into a whole new world of milk-souring unattractiveness.

I hadn't heard of the Aztec, just googled it - OMG :eek:

I've had two '77 big block Caddys & quite like that era of Americana.

This is officially the ugliest car I've ever seen... perhaps because it, like the 996, marks the death of a legend? I mean the '06s and '07s looked bad... but the '08 wrxs look like PT cruisers took advantage of a suzuki and this is their bastard offspring... the new rear suspension is not worth it.

Pontiac Aztec

AMC Pacer

That and the Turbo Trans Am are probably my fave late 70s domestics. Unfortunately as you probably know almost all those cars were used, abused and rusted away,
