Ok, so theres been a few polls about fast cars and cars under $20k, but what i'm cureious about is, what do you think the ugliest car out there is? If you have or can post a link to, somesort of picture of your choice please do.. try and keep it to stock cars, ie straight from the dealership floor..

here is my choice..

the Ssangyong Stavic - possibly the ugliest car in existence, and definatley a prime example of why car designers should not do drugs..

yeah it does look strange, i saw one last thursday night... but the speedo is just an image... in a tunnel... hard to explain... i dont think its that bad tho...

and OMG... the circles are round!!!! :eek:

CJB
6th February 2006, 03:27 PM
ha ha, yeah the circles are round :D

nah it was just a gross pattern and it was an orange one.

I don't like the centre dials - they freak me, and that whole tunnel vision, meh! Least the echo had digital speedo didn't it?

yes - the echo has digital speed

That would be easier to read on the angle I would think.

I don't know - having it there makes it that much easier for Mum to turn around and say "You're speeding again Crispin" and me not be able to argue the angle she can see it on.

Nothing changes the fact that it's an ugly interior anywho.

I don't really like the Lancer interior either - very basic, even on the VR-X. Haven't seen an evo interior.

in the echo from the shotgun seat, it is actually very hard to see the speed the car is traveling without moving your head to at least the middle of the car.

I move my head all the time.

Hell, I drive from the backseat :)

well btm... you have proven me wrong. Once again... IT'S STILL UGLY THOUGH!

Renault Megane. Hands down.

other nominations:
* Anything from Ssangyong.
* Mitsubishi 380

* Volkswagen Beetle reincarnation.
I'm being pretty harsh. But I really don't like them :)

I like the 380 though. I think it looks better then the Magna did...

more grunt too! :)

...that's just for starters, we seem to live in the era of the ugly car so I'll come back later and think of more - but those listed are among the most hideous.

Nice to see that I started a trend with the userbars too :)

CJB
6th February 2006, 07:44 PM

I go for that :p

yeah it's a little Galant looking - which was the inspiration for the car.

but it's still refreshing and alright looking. Nice 18"s on it, or even 19"s and a black one... nice.

But I agree we seem to have a whole generation of ugly cars coming out.

The Mazda 2 is another one. Really poxy looking.

a lot of the jap cars are going towards the euro styling.. i was never a massive fan of euro styling, some cars look good, but some dont.. ie a citroen..

I didn't used to like the look of Saabs until the most recent models came out, particularly the 9-3. That is one nice looking car. Wouldn't buy one though, too expensive for what it is.

My main problem with the 1 series isn't the shape, it's the detailing. The headlights/grille are ugly (it has sort of a 'startled' expression) and the rear end with that dished-in tailgate looks awful too. With a fairly minor facelift, it would be a decent looking car.

Sorry to the 6 series fans, but it's the headlights/grille and rear end that let that car down too.

The 6 series does look good. Thankfully someone came up with the idea of sticking the M5 motor into the 6 Series and came up with the ingenious name M6 for it.
