that is terrible.
i believe everyone has the right to do what ever they like to their own car, but seriously, there should be a law against that.

ahh burn it, grab the mortein, do something, that image is seared into my retina.

That car has reached a new record for ugliness. I wouldnt normally take it too seriously, but it actually seems like this guy has wasted a lot of money doing it.. oh god why.

What about the people who design or make the bodykits in the first place. What are they thinking?

Bugger.... Now that's UGLY :

The worst part is the owner probably thinks they own such a cool and 'rare' vehicle.

People who commit these types of crimes should be locked up in a FSM Niki, and marked 'never to be released'.

I didn't think it could ever be possible to make a Taurus even more ugly than when it was made, but OMG yep, apparently you can.

Would usually be worth a solid 20 bucks, but seeing it's one-of-a-kind, I think we can throw in an extra 70 cents.

The next time you see these pics will be from Outbackjack and his "FORD mules in the Alice" thread.

That would have to be the best disguise for a car seen yet!

I think he's achieved his goal for all the comments he's had here.

is there really a competition for the world's ugliest car coming up? Or is it for the world's biggest waste of time?
