Not even the three-pointed star could save that Merc from becoming a rolling blob of ugly. Another car whose appearance I dislike, the Porsche Cayenne. It looks like it wants to become both a sports car and an SUV, yet fails at both.: I still have no idea why this thing is so popular. It saddens me that the Jeep Commander, the last good-looking boxy SUV, is going out of production in 2009.

Hummer H2, Ford Mustang, and the Porche all make my stomach turn.

This one should get an honorable mention for its name alone: BTW, about the "Dodge Super 8 Hemi" posted at the beginning of this thread, is it just me or did that concept later evolve into the new Charger? Thankfully, the Charger looks 100 times better.

100 times better, but still really, really ugly imo.

The little 5 hatchback was adorable (Dude! That's my car!) and the 5 Turbo and Rally were real pocket rockets. But the LeCar...no wonder America hates France so much. Even if the French sank the Rainbow Warrior, but I digress. Anyway, Brabus is known for tuning all kinds of Mercs into monsters...and they've even done a Maybach sedan. But if THIS is their "Ultimate" vehicle...then we're all doomed. D: Ugliest line of cars can be summed up in two words: Chris Bangle. I can imagine how thankful Carl must feel for not ending up with those severely emo designs.

I don't actually hate the Bangle Beamers, but I much prefer their older designs with the exception of the new 6-series. I love that car.
Still, there's no denying that he took BMW's most recognizable trait, the grille, and turned it into a carbon copy of Pontiac's.(not that it matters here in Bahrain, where Pontiacs are rebadged as Chevys) Not to mention all the random curves and bulges which even the aforementioned 6-series suffers from.
To quote a sig I saw on another site: "Chris Bangle, world's best Mercedes salesman."

On second thought...after spending a while time looking at them, I'm starting to like most of the Bangle Beamers, even more than the old designs. Yeah, they could still do without some of the excessive bulges and creases, but overall, I think they're a good amount more exciting than the old Bimmers. Anyways, before drifting off-topic, I bring to you teh ugliness Infiniti FX:

Totally have to agree with the Cayenne Fact.. that car is an "illness" specially in germany, it's the most stolen car there and now that the facelift one is out, you see more new Cayennes than Golf driving around, fact is that it is really hard to "crawl" inside that car and that the price is more than what it's really worth... (the worst brakes in a local test for SUVs...) This one should get an honorable mention for its name alone: BTW, about the "Dodge Super 8 Hemi" posted at the beginning of this thread, is it just me or did that concept later evolve into the new Charger? Thankfully, the Charger looks 100 times better. Harhar, oh my, Seriously I HAVE that car! to be exact, a Renault GranTourismo Luxus 5-Door edition imported from Spain build in 1983... my BABY!

citroen C1 and Peugeot 107. which is unfortunate as I like Citroen and some Pegeots are okay too... but look... the Aygo is a cool looking car. the other 2... okay, same uunderneath I suspect but... the Pug especially... has a big Cherrie Blair-type mouth. it's not pretty, not cute, just ugly. The Citroen, ok, the mouth isnt AS overly huge (they lso both look like they have braces with that bumper), but the c3 pluriel-alike shape doesnt work on something so small. If they'd used more C4-ish lines, maybe it'd be ok, but... it isnt. which is a pity cause their sister-car, the aygo is a cool looking little thing. Not as good as the VW Fx at football though aparently

Dude that minivan is weird! I think it's cool with how smooth it looks, and the fact the doors dont have handles, and the windoes are cool, but other that that it just looks odd..

I've seen this car on the road a few times, but it wasn't until I saw it a magazine a few hours ago that I finally found out its name. I present to you, the Supremo of Ugliness, the Ssangyong Actyon: The first time I saw the front of this thing, I seriously thought that it had just been involved in a crash. And the rear doesn't look much better:

On the Actyon...you should see the front side of the Morgan Aero 8. It's like they molded that thing around a telephone pole.

What was somebody thinking?! Or better yet, what the heck were they smoking?! Looks like that car went to Luigi's Tire Shop and had gotten a bad deal.
