My wife used to have a 98 Ssangyong Musso Wagon, people we're always telling us how good it looks & how much newer it looked then what it was, I just looked at them funny & said 'ok'. It was a Dark Green one, they are ugly but the earlier petrol one go alright for a AWD car of that size, there engines are a copy of a Merc Engine..

VY Commodore
VE Commodore (Except for the Senator, I don't mind that)
That horrid Fiat posted up before, the Multipla

No explanation neccessary? Don't you mean the new CRV? The one with the double deck grille. I think that the high grille opening may be redundant for engine cooling.

The Porsche doesn't look pretty and the recent facelift hasn't really improved it.

At least these cars pass the 100m benchmark - strong individual visuals so that you can easily identify the car at 100m.

Yeah I agree on the CRV grilly thingo, but I meant what I said with the boxy HRV. Yuk.

Well yeah - I'd sell it to someone who likes butt ugly cars

I don't care how it goes, sounds or handles. Up close and at a distance its ugly.

Hey - I own and drive daily a KL AWD Verada. It's an outstanding car, but it's as ugly as a hatful.

Thankfully I've got two Ducatis to balance it out....

(1) Toyota Camry of about 2002 vintage... often with the Sportivo badge on the rear which makes it even worse. Appliance on wheels. Sportivo drivers delude themselves into thinking it's stylish and sporty.

(2) the Ford Laser sedan, around 1999/2000... boring as hell Thai-built appliance... It's the kind of vehicle that you rent from B-grade rental car companies in Asia.

(3) Most Chrysler Jeeps also make me cringe. Combination of ugly styling and cheap interiors. Especially the Jeep Patriot. I know someone who owns one, but I just can't bring myself to asking what they found appealing about it (without concealing my horror).

(4) The front-end styling of the VE Commodore is boring as hell... I just can't stand those exaggerated front wheel blisters. Maybe it's because they're just so common, it's bred contempt.

(5) Original Hyundai S-coupe.

(6) Mazda's new smiling corporate face... from MX5, Mazda 2, 3, 6 etc.... annoying front-end grinning styling.

(7) BMW one series... ugly duckling. Except for the 2 door which seems to work ok aesthetically.

and (8) Toyota Landcruiser 200 series.... 80 series look great, 100 ok, but WTF were they thinking then they penned the front and rear end styling of that 200 monster? It's only redeeming feature is its V8 diesel engine.

Pretty sure the Pontiac Aztec is a Ssangyong and the Chevrolet Matiz is a Daewoo. Butt Ugly.

Kinda liked the Powell Homer though...
