And the award for the ugliest car ever made goes to...
Okay, so I thought about this the other day after seeing 'something'.
What would you consider the ugliest car (or truck) ever made. Does it look like a Dust Buster? Fish bowl? Tennis shoe? Does it have a horse collar on the front or did they forget to put a trunk on the back? Who would buy an angry mole-rat sitting in a canoe?
Thought we could have some fun with this one as long as nobody checks the pictures just before dinner time.

The Ford Edsel. Grill looked like a toilet seat.

Not trying to be a follower or conformist here, but I gotta say Aztek too.

The Pontiac Aztek is pretty awful, but my vote has to go to the Fiat Multipla. It's like the hideous lovechild of a 1990s minivan and a Fiat 500.

I've always theorized that the designers made one of those clay models. Then on the night that the final design was settled on and set to go to the next phase of production, a janitor knocked it off the table and onto the floor, then picked it up and put it back without telling anyone.

Mitsubishi put out some minivans back in the early 90’s that were ugly as all get out.

^^^Yep. Proof that the design team at GM was indeed doing lines of cocaine on their desks when designing this thing. Of course the AMC Gremlin and Pacer give the Aztec a run for its money.

Awe come on, I love that 'Thing'. Road to high school a whole bunch in one just like it. And the bikini top made those rainy Florida days quite entertaining. However, the (working) beer tap hood ornament made it a classic.

The Edsel has stood the test of time in the ugly department.
^ Yeah, things like that and the Reliant Robin aren't going to win any beauty contests. But there's the eye of the beholder and retrospect. The 1958 Chevy was ugly compared to the '55,'56 and 57, but looking back, they're beautiful compared to all the potato on wheels on the road today.
