the "just plain ugly" car thread

Some cars that were spawned for the still-born Group S rallying were real howlers to look at.

Lancia ECV 2

They aren't too bad. Ford's are way worse IMO. Ford hasn't had a good looking truck since '96.

Regular cab is the way to go.
 
I did find the new Silverados ugly at first, but now I like them.

It's actually opposite for me. :lol:

@Slash I don't really find any modern trucks very nice looking. I don't think GM has had a decent looking truck since 1987.

I really think GM needs to ditch those stupid ass fender flares also.

Edit: I still disagree on the Fords being ugly

Just my opinion. :)

The new GM trucks look way better than the previous gen did. Then again, I haven't liked many Chevy's since the sqaure bodies. Chevy died in '87. The new trucks are the first I find to be actually appealing.

Ford died in 96 with the F150 and 97 with the last F250. The new trucks are FUGLY. I can kinda make an exception for the Raptor, but that's about it. The best Fords IMO were 1980-1986 and 1973-1979.

I agree about the 2014 looking better than the previous style. The previous style was FUGLY.

I do kinda find the 2014 appealing, but I have a feeling that will change when I see more.
 
The late 90s F-series were okay. After that is when it got the ugly.
This was the last of the good Fords:

1996/1997 F250

When they went to this body style, they died:

1997-2003 F150

I agree. The 97-03's are horrendous in every way imaginable. I've had the displeasure of working on them before and they are bad....

:yuck:
 
The only reason why I consider the 92-96 F series the last good F series is because it's basically the same as the 87-91 and 80-86. 80-86 was probably the last "real" Ford.

My dad had a 99. It actually didn't have many issues (other than an exhaust leak he never fixed) up until just before he sold it. So I guess I'm biased.

Anyways

These are the best looking Fords in my opinion.
 
I'm with you on the 1978/1979 (except yours has the wrong mirrors). Those are the best after the 80-86 IMO. I love the pushed in headlights (see my post above).

My all time favorite is probably the 1967, like the one I posted above. To me, that is a real truck, period.
