What is the ugliest passenger car ever?

[Inno]

There are a LOT of ugly cars. One that I don't think has been mentioned yet is the Plymouth Valiant.........this particular one is a 1962. It's not sure if it should be sleek or boxy, large or small........it's definitely a confused look! I think many Dodge and Chrysler cars from the 60s through the late 70s were pretty homely.
I'm sure I'll think of a few more.

I've always thought the El Camino (in it's various forms) was among the ugliest cars I've ever seen.

How about this.

Looks like a jacked up Chevette.

I figured a Mopar guy might be giving me heck for my posting an old Valiant.

Well I definitely have to say that the first generation Aztec was butt ugly and the gremlin was Rosemary's baby but the great injustice which was the 74 to 78 mustang ii was truely an ugly deformation of an American muscle car icon.

Don't forget Ford Pinto, Mavrick,Fairmont, Dodge Omni, Chrysler K models.

I agree...I've always like the looks of the Plymouth Valiant (my uncle had one)...and the El Camino for that matter.

The El Camino is one I like the looks of. The Ford Ranchero is kinda ugly in comparison.

This has got to be one of the ugliest, considered a classic by some, but a deckchair on wheels is what i woukd call it.

The AMC Matador ranks high on my list if for no other reason that it looked like a show car from 15-20 years earlier.

The 2CV is a classic.

If you're going after the Citroen, you should first look at the Iso Isetta and see if it doesn't curdle your blood:

Yea we used to call them "bubble cars", i actually think they are better looking than the 2cv.
It's not a citroen thing my favorite car of all time was the citroen DS

AMC Pacer

That AMC Pacer also gets my vote. I always thought it looked like a pregnant guppy.

here's another look at the MATADOR.A matador, lit. killer, (from late Latin "matare," to subdue or kill) is considered to be both an artist and an athlete, possessing great agility, grace, and coordination. yeah right

I try not to confuse cars that were ugly in their time with a car that didn't age well.

The mid to late -70's were not a good time for cars. But confusing bad engineering with styling that reflected the '70s culture is a mistake.

I don't think the Mustang 2 was particularly ugly. It was a travesty as a car though. Personally, I think it looked better than the 78 model that replaced it. BTW, I owned Capris and Rabbits in this period.

In the '60s, we thought that everything from the late '50s with all the chrome and big fins was the ugliest stuff around, but now it is nostalgic and cute.

A 78 Mustang was a Mustang II. 79 was the New Mustang .
The reason I know is my Brother has a 1978 King Cobra II.

This car isn't that bad,,, Is it??

I'd like to second the nomination of the Yugo, because I just watched Nick And Norah's Infinite Playlist last night...
