Citroen has always made some of the ugliest and still do. Two of their 2011 models and two from the sixties

Wow! That blue Citroen in post #30 is now #2 with a bullet in my bottom 10...yuck...made in France...right? Aztec holds on, barely. Sure a lot to choose from. Gave birth to the phrase: "what were they thinking?"

Add another vote for the Aztec.
I rented a Fiat 500 in Austin to work the ProAm at San Antonio earlier this year. I was a little surprised by its performance - had no trouble getting up to speed on the highway ramps. ...but driving a car that small makes pickup trucks look like semi's when you're close to them, and the trucks don't give you any respect. I'd actually like to have that blue Citroen. It's so homely that it's cool. And, those cars had hydraulic systems on their suspensions about 40 years before the lowrider owners thought of adding them to their cars. |

The new Camaro is pretty ugly when compared to the Mustang and Challenger.
What happened to "Body by Fisher"? |

Matador station wagons have a soft spot in my heart, took my drivers test in a 1978 version, and yes I had to parallel park that baby! Did lots of things in that wagon
![]() The Pacer and Pacer wagon are very ugly to me, but the ones I hate are the Prius and the owners they have nearly taken me out twice on the motorcycle!!!! P eople R iding I n U gly S h*t Rick |

At least some on the ugly list did have redeeming features:
Citreon DS-19:Air suspension made it possible to drive the car on three tires in case of a flat in a bad spot. Bugatti Veyron:That's why it's so fast. Geo Metro:Went on three road trips with Billy Nees.His Geo got 50+ mpg.And it wasn't all that cramped inside. Matador S/W:I flat towed my 1973 gremlin for 4-5 years with one.Never had a problem.

I'm glad that this thread brought a smile to some of you. I look at the old Chrysler and Dodge of the 60's as works in progress and they all look good once converted to a race car status, try to convert a square box into a race car and you still have a square box. A couple of years ago I bought an Aspen Station wagon with a slant six for my son to go to University(great for carrying all his gears but all his friends love it for it's bus like utility), I installed a catalytic converter and gear swap and was told that it past the emission with a better result than most Honda or Nissan four cylinders. Want to save the planet, recycle an old car. From Pinto to Cadillac they look great as a race cars. CR
