Butt Ugly Vehicles

Except for Nissan styling.

Pontiac Vibe. Hands down.

From the one-off prototype end of things, we have the Sir Vival.

Xema mentioned the 1958 Sir Vival in post 29.

It was ugly then, and it’s still ugly now.

I haven’t seen a Plymouth Volare on the road since who knows when, and I’m not asking to see one, either. But I saw a rerun of the TV show Fantasy Island recently and they had a modified one on it. They actually took a homely looking car and made it butt uglier.

Here’s a pic: https://www.google.com/search?q=fantasy+island+car&client=safari&hl=en-us&prmd=inv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjQuOb5kL3MAhVBKWMKHTiTD9sQ_AUIBygB&biw=1024&bih=672#imgrc=6_5vaqr23mnxCM%3A

My boss has a late sixties Monte Carlo. I did not realize at first that that was what it was, it looked like your average muscle-car-era muscle car. At some time in the '70s, the Monte Carlo became ugly, at least in comparison to the earlier style. Not quite butt ugly, but well worthy of having its hood barfed upon.

Hyundai Veloster and Pontiac Aztek

Dymaxion.

…but does the Sir Vival play “La Cucaracha” when you honk the horn?

And, you know, I think I actually kind of like how the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet looks. Granted, that might be because it reminds me of the Warthog from Halo, but still…

To be fair, Skoda has a long history of ugly.We used to refer to it as the “Skrota”.

Google’s Self-Driving Car sure looks like Dymaxion’s ugly little brother. I saw one on the road today.

There is a car you would need a good disguise for.

I saw another Google Self Driving car today. The driver was not wearing a disguise. I live near Google, so I guess I’ll see them more frequently.

Darn.

Wait, a self-driving car had a driver?

Good question. Someone was in there, so maybe I should have called him ‘passenger’.

I looked it up, they are ‘test drivers’.

Cadillac XLR. There’s just no pretty angle from which to sneak up on.

American cars 80’s and before had big hood. It would stick way out.

Some models was big at back and other models was shorter.

It had more big boxing look than round look.
Well this car is similar to cars today the fact it had more boxing gives you feel it is bigger than cars today.

May be I just like the old classic cars or cars with big hood. I hate cars with small round front and sloped back, it looks small and ugly.

Well there are some nice new cars today but they are muscle cars, sports cars or high end cars like below. Make it look bigger and more tough look.

But these are sports cars not the average middle class can have unless you have lot of money.

The average person going to have small round front and sloped back and it is going to look really plain looking.

You can see different of police cars cut down front and back more sloped and rounded look.
