Do you think these are some of the ugliest cars ever?

Wow, they built a 2007 Kaiser Darrin

Ballin' on a budget. People will buy these things just to get the look of something more expensive.

 

I saw a TV biograpy on the life of Roy Orbison...he had an Excalibur SS and was real proud of it, too.

I am not sure, but he probably could have afforded a real 500SK.

 

LOL!

I actually like their baby RR.

 

I agree that their sedans look pretty bad. The sports car looks like a fancy kit car to me. The Lotus replica is not bad.
BT

 

The Sportscar looks like a Ray Manta

 

Man those are ugly. The Lotus replica isnt bad at all though.

 

The Mitsuoka Oroshi is one of the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

 

One canadate is the VW Thing but then agin it almost cool it so ugly

 

You can hardly go wrong replicating a Lotus 7 (Caterham 7 now), plenty of kit car companies have done it.

As for the others... please, pass me the sick bucket!!!

 

Those Japanese cars make Chinese cars look like Bentleys!!

I wouldn't get in one even if I was a crash test dummy....

 

They're not Singapore cars, they're Japanese cars.

 

My mistake, but I bet they are made in China though.

 

I was thinking more like Admiral Ackbar.

 

Or a Storm Trooper's hot rod. (The white car)

 

The va-gina Roadster XL300

Whats with the ugly fender expensions they added on that Jauar? lol, I think thier designer needs to find some originality...

 

Nice attempt!! NOT!!

 

Just came back from the Singapore Motorshow. Saw their fugly cars up close and personal (puke). They're not bringing in the Lotus Replica (which is the only nice car they have).

But even the cars they have are *hopelessly* underpowered for the looks and yet overpriced. The weird Admiral Ackbar "sportscar" has a 3+ liter N/A V6 engine putting out a measly 230 hp. Since the body is a "composite" of metal and fiberglass (the salesman didn't divulge proportions - the thing could be 99% steel and 1% fiber for all I know), it's probably as heavy as a whale. Which is why they haven't gotten even "estimated" 0 to 60 times as a selling point.

To top it all off, there's the price : S$350,000 (which comes to USD$225,000). A quarter of a million US dollars !!! And Singapore taxes by engine capacity as well, which means the buyer would get hit by the hopelessly inefficient engine which requires more than 3000 cc to put out 230 hp.

Singapore car prices are grossly overinflated compared to most of the rest of the world (because of extra taxes, etc), but to put things in perspective, a brand new BMW M3 with the SMG here would cost around S$330,000. I know which one I'd rather take.

For a weird sounding unknown Japanese brand, Mitsuoka sure are rather optimistic about their pricing points. When I asked one of their sales staff about this, he had the nerve to say that they were selling the styling, not the performance. Oh, the humanity!!
