Was looking at this thread and was going to mention the new barina spark, and finally someone mentioned it with a pic aswell. My god this thing is the ugliest car ever made in the modern era, with those massive lights and tiny wheels it looks like an alien praying mantis transformer mobile, it is genuinely ugly!!!

I think both the latest small car offerings from ford and holden/daewoo are as ugly as each other....But that spark is in a league of its own though. Yeah spark, who has some fuel to go with it? that will fix the problem

As for the spark it should be renamed the Holden snot bubble.

I just looked it up to see what Daewoo the Barina Spark is based on... considering I heard very little about it till it arrived. It's a Daewoo Matiz! I thought the original one they sold here was bad enough!

The original:

I see a few of those old school Matizes getting around, they're so small and unsafe I feel like I'm gonna die just looking at one! Still, teenage girls with Holden-loving daddies will be gathering in Holden dealerships to buy them.

The Barina looks hideous, like it's been punched in the face. It's based off the Chevy Beat concept which was used as Skids in Transformers 2.


I suppose it's only a matter of time before some kid does his Spark up like the movie one.

Yeah they do.

Here's another angle.

The Holden grille uglifies it.

Geriatric cars^...




Gothic Benz.. I call it the ghostmobile.



Those hollowed out eyes are plain creepy, remind me of a skull.



Lights up high with nothing below, never looked right to me.



Same theme.. VW many years later.



Wow, just wow...
