    My add would also be the new Porsche Panamera. I just don't get it.

    Any Bangle designd BMW would also make my list.

    Oh, and the Cadillac Escalade . . . and I own one!

    Totally ugly IMHO

    - Porsche Boxter
    - BMW 1 series (the brand new one)
    - Audi A1 (also way too expensive for what it is)
    - Mini Countryman
    - Toyota Prius (new and old)
    - Lamborghini Gallardo
    - Honda Civic (the new version, not the Type-R)

    Most likely a few more will be added, but this is it for now :)

    Actually, one might argue that aerodynamics were the end of pretty Ferrari and Lamborghini cars. The 308 and the Uracco, and the Boxer and the Periscopio Countach are the last of elegance in supercars. I guess the ground effects spoiled it for us (no pun intended) ; )

    fair to say John, i too dislike the slab side, skirted with edges protruding type of styling....give me a lusso, a miura, an e-type, even a 240Z over any modern design :)

    Another vote for the Nissan Juke here.

    Actually, those lights on top of the hood are the side/running lights and indicators. What you are calling the "world's largest fog lights" are actually the headlights and the real fog lights are the smaller ones below those.

    This car particularly irritates me because, no matter how dark it is outside, the owners and drivers of them absolutely insist on never turning on the headlights - as it just looks weirdly surprised with them on. Instead, they just drive around in the pitch black with just their wasp-eye sidelight things on.

    People who won't turn their headlights on when it's dark really irritate me. :eek:

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Mondial is not the best looking Ferrari ever - but how can you name it in the "ugliest of ugly cars" thread?
    Every Ferrari is a real joy for my eyes in all that grey and faceless traffic.

    No way. I loved my H2. The first realy drivable Tonka Truck. Damn I miss her. Still love to admire them. That thing was just awesome.

    Haha! I wish... :p

    In all seriousness I like every Ferrari by default, perhaps too much. The Mondials design doesn't provoke the usual fcar emotions for me, maybe I haven't spent enough time around one.

    Honda Civic?? Maybe the car sold in Australia is different from the one sold in the U.S. (often done by Honda).

    Anyway, while my EX coupe may not be a ravishing beauty, I think it looks better than the previous model, and certainly better than such atrocities as the Nissan Juke, the Izusu VehiCross, the Datsun F10 and the Pontiac Aztek.
