the "just plain ugly" car thread

The 2016 Toyota Prius looks absolutely awful.

Prius 'Stache

Saw one of these at the mall. It's quite an odd mishmash of ideas and designs. The futuristic mold of the front and sides really don't match with the top of the vehicle, the lines lead to no where or big bulges that do nothing for the eye, lots of busy stuff, etc. The wheels are also pretty woeful.

Whenever I see the rear fender skirts on that car, I immediately think of the Caprice Classic.



I thought that fad died out many decades ago.

The rear half of the car is badly proportioned. No, make that horribly proportioned. And we haven't even got around to the front yet...

It just looks dumb.

Bertone Pickster, blah! I think I know where the Veyron's styling came from too.

Honda Edix

The car's proportions are decent, but that hideous corporate grille ruins the flow of the design. If it had the grille of the 2012-2014 Accord, it would be a much more handsome car IMO.

To be honest, it wasn't just the exterior of the Allegro that was ugly, but it's interior was equally ghastly;

The dodgy standard square steering wheel, like in the first pic, was certainly an odd one, and as with those two pics, the brown option interior was just a sea of horrendous dull brown vinyl, velour and iffy plastics . And it wasn't much better in any other colour either, as I remember seeing one stop at a set of lights not too long (suprised it was still going to be honest ), and it had a nasty bright yellow interior .

What was with car manufactures in the 1970s and the color brown?

Vene... no.

 

[Michelin Man]

Vene... no.

Pretty it most certainly is not .

And neither is the Centenario, from any angle.

Both the Veneno and the Centenario just look like the same type of over dramatic, distasteful GTA cast off super-car to me.

I respect your opinion....

But it's still wrong

Double post....

Just saw pictures of a Skoda Kodiaq. Not pretty.

The styling here is more generic than ugly. The rear end could use some fixing, but otherwise it's an inoffensive design.

I wonder if the phenotype is caused by a recessive or dominant trait.

That actually made me laugh. I hate typos.

I don't know about ugly. Bland maybe but I wouldn't even say that...

I like the "sporty" look of it but god i hate the weird panel part between the logo and the "Lexus" mesh grill.

Also what's with those side...things?

I saw a brand new Camry XSE today on the road. It's uglier in actuality than in pictures, unfortunately.

Wait, they already started selling them over there? Hmm...

...at least we are finally getting a proper V6 Camry thanks to Toyota Australia factory shutting down and therefore no more of Aurion V6 crap.

 

[Obelisk]

Saw one of those Camrys in beige already. I guess it's begun...

 

[Ze Elephant]

It looks like a car that could be decently okay looking if they did a rehash of everything on the front. In fact, the front end on that Skoda looks like it would work much better than the normal Toyota front end. The headlights might not even need to be changed...

The 2004 Chevrolet Malibu Maxx.

I had a neighbor who owned one of these things. Needless to say, I did not enjoy walking outside to see this mess parked across the street from my house.

 

[CSMDuty11]

The 2004 Chevrolet Malibu in general.

You could have just as easily said that instead.

Just boring, not ugly.
