And the ugliest car for sale is...

Well earned victory in my book

The designers should all get a swift kick to their behinds for this one

Will agree with the #1 selection! That 5 series Gran Turismo is just ugly...

Vervain · 10-19-2013, 07:25 AM

I agree with some of them but the 5 GT is quite attractive in its LCI guise (personal opinion). The Mini Paceman is not bad too.

The 4 runner looks like a pit bull.

CJ421 · 10-19-2013, 10:37 AM

Great list.

Totally agree about the Infiniti QX80 ...those things should be put out of their misery. DISGUSTING!!!

The Nissan Versa too ...any car that's sold with sub 200mm wide tires in this day and age is a lost cause. 4 speed auto, 109 hp 1.6L engine - WTF?

ddk632 · 10-19-2013, 10:48 AM

I actually quite like the 4Runner

Had a '94 as my first car though.

turbolag · 10-19-2013, 11:33 AM

I think the 4runner looks neat...it's aggressive and unique. Not for everybody, though, but it's certainly unique without looking like a pile of shit.

Soorena · 10-19-2013, 11:50 AM

The 4Runner looks good actually.

Absolutely not. Toyota's design team is way out to lunch. Hideous.

Same goes for the 5 GT. Disgusting

Kwando · 10-20-2013, 04:14 PM

The 500L looks like a Mini Countryman with down syndrome.

Mr Tonka · 10-20-2013, 04:54 PM

the 4runner reminds me of the semi truck that Richard Hammond "decorated" on an episode of Top Gear.

NemesisX · 10-20-2013, 05:10 PM

Hmm, I'm a little surprised with the 5 series GT selection.

10 through 4 don't necessarily look "ugly" to me. They're just bland more than anything.

IIRC the new generation Lexuses (Lexi?) are being designed by a former Audi designer, which surprised me because Audi makes some very elegant cars (particularly the A5/S5) but the latest '14 IS is pretty polarizing and anything but conservative/elegant.

Templar · 10-20-2013, 05:34 PM

Kind of shocked the Nissan Juke or the Scion xB didn't make the but. Or the Kia Soul. Ugly ass cars...

NemesisX · 10-20-2013, 05:42 PM

^ I used to hate the look of the soul, but oddly enough it started to grow on me as time went by.

Also go ahead and add the Nissan Cube to the list as well. I know the Pontiac Aztek isn't made anymore but that car was so hideous that it possibly deserves recognition on a list for 2013+ cars

The soul, cube, whatever simply look dull. They're not really ugly as much as uninspiring.

bbbbmw · 10-21-2013, 12:03 AM

Went to a car show last weekend, and saw the Fiat 500L. It's second-generation Hideous:

Here's the first generation:

Can't wait to see someone resurrect the Aztec about 50 years from now...

KingOfJericho · 10-21-2013, 07:32 AM

The 4Runner went from being one of the best looking SUVs around for close to two decades to this mess - and I find the pictured version to be the least offensive of the bunch. It's just not attractive and I think their sales figures would show that. I have no facts to back that up but I rarely see the new models.

Billup · 10-21-2013, 08:55 AM

Legacy seems more bland to me, than ugly. 4Runner doesn't seem that ugly, either.

QX80 headlights make it look depressed.

Templar · 10-21-2013, 09:23 AM

Of all the boxes on wheels (Scion xB, Kia Soul, Aztek, Nissan Cube, etc.), the Soul is probably the best looking. I prefer my vehicles to have SOME sort of aerodynamics though.
