the "just plain ugly" car thread

[LivingWithGames]

Subaru just haven't been able to get it right since the original WRX. They came close in 2003 but everything else has been pretty awful

While true, calling the newer Imprezas is a freaking insult. 2001 I can understand, 2003 is one of my faves, 2005 is definetely my top fave, Hatchback I can deal with it, 2010 was meh and 2014 is also a fave of mine. Granted, the 90's one is unbeatable but still, come on.

I've seen a few 2014 Imprezas on the road and they look pretty awful IMO. The front of the car doesn't fit with the rest of it and all the angles are off, the car just looks confused.

I stick by my original post

Toyota is on fire with turning dull cars into ugly ones. The RAV4 Hybrid has three three unfinished faces, all slapped on top of each other creating a look that makes me wonder, which one of the two black horizontal lines above the number plate should be removed to make it look even somewhat acceptable.

The 1999 GTO Concept looks EVEN WORSE than the Aztek. Thank god this wasn't the production model.

The Lamborghini Veneno is dreadful. And people actually like this. ALOT.

Couldn't agree more. The Veneno is a horrible looking car

Surely that isn't because of how it looks.

This is without doubt the worst car, not just in its category, but in the world. It has a top speed of 88mph but takes so long to reach it that no one has ever lived long enough to verify the claim... Also, its name sounds like a disease.

It's virtually word for word a Clarkson quote.

Pretty sure that's his MO around the forums.

I figured it was with the exaggeration.

It's like an online car from GT6 that has gone real.

Please tell me you forgot this isn't the Questionable Mods thread and not a factory thing

Telling people at a dinner party you drive a Nissan Almera is like telling them you’ve got the Ebola virus and you’re about to sneeze.

It was rubbish when it was new, it was built by idiots, and it's rubbish now.

It's the Youngman L3 GT Lotus, which is either a Proton Gen 2 wearing a new badge, or a direct copy of a Proton Gen 2 wearing a new badge.

The worst part is, no, this is not a joke.

 

[LivingWithGames]

You gotta be kidding me. One chrome car, this thing existed...?

Christ.

Doesn't look boring to me, it just looks rather plain.

Lancer Hatchbacks just look so awkward

I didn't even know they made Lancer hatchbacks.

They did here (I'm not sure if they did everywhere else) as the Lancer Sportback.

I live in the US and looking it up; it was sold here but I didn't even know it existed.

Yeah, they had a short life.

The "normal" RAV4 front is perfect! Why did they do this????

The front looks like a Scion iM and Toyota Corolla.

New one reminds me of a sporty Volvo S40. Better than the hatchback before that though i found that one very 'uninspiring', to put it mildly.

HSV had an absolute shocker with the E Series 3, looks like someone designed it in NFS Underground.

Catering for the bogan masses I suppose...

Everything but the taillights, I like.

"Bogan" just seems uncalled for.

I see quite a few of them here in Australia, and they ever please the eye
