Default Ugly Cars.

Now everyone likes to look at nice cars, such as the FPV GT and HSV Clubsport.

But I thought we could be different.

In this thread I do not want people to be manufacture bashing, thought this could be some fun. I just want to know what car you think is ugly and why.

One last thing no AU bashing.

I think the only real "ugly" bit on the AU was the original S1 grille....

And yes, we have a S1 AU and love it too!!! (it does have a different grille though!!!)

Seriously, in my opinion:

Ford Ka, Ford Taurus (already mentioned), and that new Hyundai coupe - not sure of it's correct name, sort of a sporty looking thing.....

That's just my opinion, it would be a boring world if we all loved the AU......

Current HSV.....seriously.... If I was still popping zits I could understand ...but...

Otherwise... The aptly named "Cube"
