I thought I'd bring this thread back into the light because I'm pretty sure I've found the most ugliest car in the history of mankind...



The 1957 Aurora.

You could say the same for some of the old Fords and Chryslers.

Is that a Ford? I thought I was looking at a Hyundai.. One of the ugliest cars to grace Korea, second to Ssangyong.

- Nissan Cube, there are loads of them being driven round here, dunno why?
- Toyota Rukus (Scion xB)
- Toyota Prius
- HSV Maloo (E1, E2 and E3)
- VY Commodores (the entire range, funny cause it's been years since I've seen a VY Clubby on the road)
- AU Falcon Series 1 front grill, yes, it was the grill only that was ugly

Ugh, the Nissan Cube - 'nuff said.

And the 57 Aurora.... looks like the front bumper is a bench so everyone has a place to sit and have lunch at the park. The tail lights remind me of a blind goldfish. Dunno why but it does, maybe I've seen a blind goldfish before.

I've seen a few BMW X1s on the road lately. ****** they look crappy. Some people will by anything just for a brand name.

Thankfully we didn't get this monstrocity here:
Subaru Impreza Casa Blanca



And how about a tuned Statesman sold in Germany - the Bitter Vero

In regard to those awful looking Subaru Impreza Casa Blanca's. I'm glad they kept those horrible looking things in Japan. I had to have a second look as when I first saw the photo, I thought it was another new model from the Japanese ugly car company Mitsuoka.
