It just looks odd...squatty I guess because it looks like an SUV that somebody smushed. And yay Pontiac on making #1...haha. I just wish people would stop calling my Vibe a "miniature Aztek."

There is no way I will ever think that the Aztek should still be considered the ugliest car. The Xb and the Element are so much uglier.I am however, glad to see that the Magnum and the 300C are on that list.

I'm okay with 1-7 but 8-10 come on, they are definetely not the worse looking cars. Hell, the entire KIA line-up is bad enough

i guess the best way to look at it is to try and find ONE thing about the car that you DO like....with that in mind, I'd put the PT Cruiser and those Scion things 1 and 2. Everything else on that list has something (some smaller than others) that i don't particularly mind.
I have signatures turned off so I'm not even sure what mine says in this space!

My boss sent this to me a few weeks ago, because we were making fun of a co-worker that had an Element (actually just traded it off a couple weeks ago). If you didn't, make sure to click on the 'read more comments' link to see what people said about the different cars. There are some classic rips.

I was reading some of the "other comments"PT CruiserIt's disheartening when I see one with flames that are only PAINTED on. — MarcAvalancheLovingly adorned with more plastic than Anna Nicole Smith. — MarciaH2It is the automotive equivalent of Aunt Bertha. — FarrarElementLooks like the owner thought, "I'd like to own a Hummer, but I work at Foot Locker." — JohnXBAll the grace of a hippo on stilts. — ChrisAnd the poor AztekLet's face it, not every engineering student gets an "A". The "D" students need work also. — BobThe back end looks like it was stretched up too high, kind of like when an elderly person hikes their pants up to their chin. — Eric

I don't think the Baja would be too bad if I saw it in a color scheme other than that yellow and grey. :/

I don't agree with the 300S. I really like the looks of it. I would add the Porsche Cayenne to that list. That thing is friggin UGLY.

now now... to be fair... you have to consider when the fuego was made... and what it competed against (remember the chevette and plymouth horizon?)the fuego actually had rounder lines than just about any car in its category then (style forward). while the turbo was troublesome that car was amazing when it took off.the only problem was that it was a renault... use it and break it... lolthe funniest renault ever was the R12 Nordic, special edition made for north america (make that quebec as that's where they sold most of their cars). When asked what made the Nordic edition nordic, the dealer answered ' the word Nordic painted on the sides of the car'. That thing wouldn't start in winter. it did have the most comfortable leather seats i've ever sat on though.on the other hand, renault used to sell a ton of R5's in Quebec, especially Montreal (aka 'le car' in the US... known as 'Le Chnac' in french). Then they had the brilliant idea of attempting to improve profit margins by having AMC (aka, the maker of the gremlin and other patently poorly assembled vehicles) assemble their cars. They lost the market in under 3 years. now the toyota echo is filling the market segment renault used to own with the R5. on a side note, the echo is available as a hatchback in canada. it's the precursor to the scion xA.to their credit, renault has been instrumental in nissan's current renaissance.

I think some of the Hyundai's are a lot uglier than what's on that list. I personally like the Magnum and 300. I don't think the Baja looks that bad, definitely not on my top 10 of ugliest. About the Hyundais, whenever I see a Santa Fe, the sides look like they are kicked in. It's the way the designers put in the curves. See this picture: See what I mean on the rear doors? I notice that whenever I pass them. I also don't like the front and the way the fenders are flat, as if they sliced them off. They make their cars too bubbly and curvy. They put some odd curves into the designs.The previous generation Tiburon was hideous in my opinion. It's as if the designers stepped on their prototype model and thought, "Hey, all these creases look cool, let's put them into the design!" There are some ugly curves and those creases they put over each wheel well as if it got crushed. Now, the newer Tiburons are the only current Hyundai cars that I think look good. Those are a couple that come to mind right now that I don't see anyone else mentioning. I also don't like the Suzuki Aerio. These are just my opinions.
