- KayMan2k, on 07/23/2008, -4/+162What!? No mention of the PT Cruiser? ... with fake wood panels?
- dave122, on 07/23/2008, -7/+116The Acura TL isn't that bad, definitely not what I'd call a great looking car, but compare it to a scion xb or a honda element and it looks amazing.
- Jektal, on 07/23/2008, -12/+81Most of these aren't that bad - but god is that Murano hideous
- HenvY, on 07/23/2008, -11/+762009 TL Acura ugly? Nonsense, it's very good looking - it mimics Audi and BMW though, so that's to be expected.

- 9bpm9, on 07/24/2008, -3/+58This list is horrible.
- GRTWHT, on 07/23/2008, -1/+53Some good ones, but I swear I see even uglier stuff every day - a little disappointed with the list.
- inactive, on 07/23/2008, -1/+52The only thing worse than a wood-paneled PT Cruiser is a convertable wood-paneled PT Cruiser.
- imightbewrong, on 07/24/2008, -6/+37Stupid List
- btschul, on 07/23/2008, -4/+32None of these are really that bad. Apart from the minivan, of course.
- MikeFromAmerica, on 07/23/2008, -6/+34Buried as inaccurate for not including the Scion.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:06-Scion-xB.jpg - burchie2, on 07/23/2008, -4/+27There isn't a single car on this list that I would feel embarrassed to drive. How could they forget the Kia's in this world?
- Hartley1942, on 07/24/2008, -6/+26Aztek?
- slayersotaku, on 07/23/2008, -7/+26None of those are that bad except the Prius. Everything is getting post-modern, futuristic. I'm just hoping the next Mazda 3 looks good.
- benroy, on 07/24/2008, -8/+26No Honda Element?
Most of these cars aren't all that bad looking.
I think they were chosen at random.
Lame list. - Mattso, on 07/24/2008, -1/+19Personal taste FTW
- oboredone, on 07/24/2008, -4/+21That Chevy is FUGLY.
- inactive, on 07/24/2008, -0/+16They look fine to me...I'll take them of someones hands if they don't want it
- WasabiBomb, on 07/24/2008, -2/+17Man, do I disagree. Most of the cars in that list are ugly, or boring... but I've always liked the look of the Murano.
To each his own, I guess. - babar77, on 07/24/2008, -2/+16No the only thing worse was the now discontinued Pontiac Aztec. ugliest. vehicle. ever.
- Jaspah, on 07/24/2008, -3/+17Buried for inaccuracy.
- Jasper710, on 07/24/2008, -4/+18HEY! THAT'S MY CAR!
Ya Jerk - rowlodge, on 07/24/2008, -0/+13my first new car was a Ford Tempo, that was ugly, i heard some the guys at the dealership snickering as they went by the door, while we were negotiating the price.
- bullox, on 07/24/2008, -3/+15PT Loser.
- phore, on 07/23/2008, -5/+17My sister's Cooper S gets 40 MPG and has a supercharger and kicks butt on the autocross. Not to mention it actually looks good. She spent $15k on a used one with 30k miles on it (in pretty much new condition). Sorry to say but the Prius is a joke, I feel sorry for people suckered into buying one. You don't have to compromise if you want to save money on gas, just don't buy an SUV.
- Dasliberdan, on 07/24/2008, -7/+19No Scion, no Kia's WTF I can't believe this front paged!
- crazymaster16, on 07/23/2008, -6/+18hehe.... i like the most of these cars.. :|
- Konrad9, on 07/24/2008, -1/+13I believe you mean the Honda Elephant.
- beanzo, on 07/24/2008, -3/+149. 2009 Acura TL
Uh, no? - WilliamAdama, on 07/24/2008, -2/+13As everyone is saying, it's a lame list and I think most of them look ok. Nothing is outstanding but none of them are ugly.
- pentupentropy, on 07/23/2008, -7/+17the RAV4 should be at the top of this list. The PT Cruiser should also be near the top, that thing is hideous.
- FUR10N, on 07/24/2008, -2/+12i agree i've seen way uglier rolling down the street (read: scion boxcar)
- Cam_86, on 07/24/2008, -0/+10The Aztek was killed off, I think, back in '04. Damn shame because other then its edgy styling(which some people, myself included, didnt mind) it was a very well built car. Especially considering it was a first generation crossover.
If you can stomach the look, then its an amazingly good deal used. They have horrible resale value, and generally last upwards of 300k if well taken care of. The Aztek and the Hyundai Accent are probably the best deals in the used market, all because of consumer ignorance, or stubbornness to accept *different* design styles. - mehan, on 07/24/2008, -2/+11no matter how you try to rationalize it, you still drive a prius.
- patpl22391, on 07/24/2008, -3/+12Blame Government regulation standards. All the rest of the world has the best cars, many of which have awesome Diesel engines, but can't pass our rigorous safety/emissions tests.
- heanshi, on 07/24/2008, -2/+11what about HHR? I won't drive that even you pay me to
- bullox, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8Those aren't being sold new anymore.
- inactive, on 07/24/2008, -2/+10Mazda3 = Euro Focus
- TheMachine1, on 07/24/2008, -1/+9But the money you save will allow you to hire a hooker now and then.
- Brian48216, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8You just love blaming the government for all your ills don't you. In the case of the Euro focus it isn't a matter of safety or emissions. If it was Ford could easily made adjustments and bring them to the US. That's what Mercedes did with Smart.
Ford doesn't import the Euro focus because the NA Focus is a much cheaper car then the Euro version. They believe that Americans that are willing to pay more money would opt for the Mustang.
Ford is selling the NA Focus as a cheap affordable car in the US for sales.
Frankly I think their management is made of morons when I asked why they don't import the Mondeo and they told me that I'd be pleasantly surprised by the Ford Fusion. Which I was not. - jeffvvisoft, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8Is there a government regulation forcing Ford to stick craptastic vents on the side of the car?
- inactive, on 07/24/2008, -2/+10Indeed my 1990 Toyota Corolla is truly hideous. OTH it gets 30 city probably 38 highway runs like a top, doesn't burn oil, tracks true, stops well for 425 dollars. It does everything I need a car to do in an economic and ecological way while leaving money for me to go to concerts with friends, have a nice mac and a P.C. notebook, etc. Identifying with the appearance of a car is beyond pitiful, what does it matter as long as it gets you there?
- loganro, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8I'm not that big of a fan of the mustang, but really..who gives a ***** what the rest of the world thinks or drives.
- tyboulder, on 07/24/2008, -1/+8It's true. They essentially re-branded the same car.
- icantdenythis, on 07/24/2008, -8/+15I like the Acura? it looks pretty badass.
- tyboulder, on 07/24/2008, -0/+7Why are the fake air intake panels missing on the side of the Focus? Nothing says ghetto like a chromed piece of plastic glued on your car to make it look faster.
- tyboulder, on 07/24/2008, -0/+7The Uplander isn't ugly? I'd rather drive an Aztec. With the camping package attached.
- warren8, on 07/24/2008, -3/+10At least mini owners dont like to smell their own farts.
No, but seriously, the prius is just a huge scam. the hybrid battery does almost nothing for mpg. Instead, they just created a light car with narrow tires for less resistance to rolling, very little interior space and an engine that is barely able to accelerate the car.
Instead you could just buy a regular civic, and skip on the huge markup and douchiness that comes with owning a prius. I mean honestly, if you ask me, buying a prius more consistently is for an ego boost than buying a fast car. When you buy a fast car, it is possible to just enjoy it and not care about what others think. If youre buying a prius, its quite obvious you have the cash for gas money, but you want to show how you are better than all the non-hybrid drivers. Either that or you're an idiot who falls for the bs that hybrids are. (right now anyway) - ferrell, on 07/24/2008, -4/+11How could the Ford Flex NOT be on this list?!
That thing makes the Aztek look half decent!
http://www.greghinzmann.com/wp-content/uploads/200 ... - dsmx, on 07/24/2008, -3/+9For the record here's a road death comparison:
United States 1979 Fatalities: 51,093 2002 Fatalities: 42,815
Great Britain 1979 Fatalities: 6,352 2002 Fatalities: 3,431
Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NHTSA#Regulatory_comp ...
If you multiply the Britain figures by 5 to get an equivalent figure your still 27000 deaths short of American road deaths. I fail to see how you can say there are higher safety standards in the US. -
