Welcome to the World's Ugliest Cars section of my webpage. Detroit has decided to switch gears from attractive designing to creating automotive eyesores in the past few years and the cars found on this page in my opinion, and that several of several others, rate as some of the world's ugliest. Below each car you will find the make and model of the car as well as the reason for making the list, if the pictures don't explain themsleves. Enjoy yourselves and try not to get a headache from these ghastly velocipeds.

1997 Plymouth Prowler

Built as a concept car for the 1994 Detroit Auto Show, the Prowler was originally never meant for production yet somehow managed to make its way from the drawing boards to the showrooms. Production of the vehicle stopped in 1999 due to poor sales, and they say miracles never happen. Yet through some unknown reasoning the Prowler was brought back in 2003 with little or no changes to the already ugly body. I dislike this car one, because it is overpriced, with MSRP set at $37,500 and two, it resembles a door stopper on wheels, and these are the qualifications that make it at the top of my list.

I don't know what the hell GM was thinking when they approved the design of this eyesore on wheels. The Aztek is one of, if not the ugliest cars I have ever seen in my life. I think the engineers who thought this one up watched way too many science fiction movies as children as this car resebles a moon mobile from a B horror flick. Boxy and under proportioned with tiny wheels hauling a massive body. The Aztek looks like an SUV body slop shoed to fit onto an Grand Am chassis. Besides the apparent ugliness factor of 11 on a scale of 1 - 10, the car has a tent that folds out of the trunk - a sure fire sign the car will fail, but Detroit wants you to be comfortable while you are stranded in the middle of nowhere waiting for help - how considerate, maybe next they will design cars that won't induce vomitting.

This one just adds insult to injury, I must say. As if the thought of Cadillac building an SUV that was bigger and more uglier that it possibly ever needed to be didn't make you throw up, the fact that they built an SUV / Pick up truck combonation surely will. Explain to me the purpose of a $65,000 pick up truck, I hardly think Joe the Handyman will haul lumber or gravel in this baby, let alone go off roading like they show in the commercials - that would cause a fortune in body and undercarriage damage and probably void the warranty as well. Once again Detroit caters to the yuppies and the soccer moms building another Supersized Useless Vehicle.

Skewing away from thier beautiful Interpid and Concorde designs of the past, Chrysler and Plymouth both produced the "mini hearse" as I call it, the PT Cruiser. Designed as a retro rebuild of the old 1937 panel delivery trucks, these cars are just plain ugly, especially those painted Inca Gold and with the faux wood trim to make them look like the old wood paneled station wagons of the 60's. I'm sorry folks, I expect a better product for the $25 - 30,000 they want for these crap wagons.

Once again the foreigners never let us down, producing the eyesore vehicle designs we have all come to know and hate. The Vehicross captures the portrait of ugliness, from the front this car resembles some sort of pissed off winged insect, yet from the side it almost resembles a Jeep Liberty Sport in size and profile, imagine that, the Japanese copying US designs. On a ugly scale of 1 - 10, wihtout a doubt this car rates a 10.

Buick decided to venture away from building land yachts for the elderly and moved into the SUV market. The vehicle they built ranks as one of America's ugliest vehicles yet. The Rendezvous is not only an eyesore, but an exceptional one at that. The oversized gap-tooth grille, a Buick trademark, looks like the air intake of an aiplane turbine engine, the offset headlights look out of place and the boxy rear end resebles the Pontiac Aztek. The interior is typicl Buick with useless amenities aplenty, offering four cigatreet lighters when one is more than enough. Buick has really outdone themselves to keep up with the ugly car business, and thier Rendezvous is now basking in the limelight on this page.

Even being a GM product I respected Cadillac as a manufactuerer of fine cars, that is until they unveiled the CTS in 2002. With the release of that monstrosity I lost all respect for Cadillac whatsoever. There is not pleasant angle on this car, as any way you look at it its ugly as sin. However the rear is more pleasing to look at than the pointed front that resembles a snow plow, thus I have nicknamed the CTS "Plow Front". The CTS was one of the first in the now trend setting series of Detroit ugliness, and whatever GM does the rest follow, so we may consider the Cadillac CTS to blame for launching this new wave of ugly engineering Detroit is cranking out.

This car has me speechless, and not in the wow that's beautiful way either. As you may or may not know, Cadillac has decided to bring back a modernized version of its V-16 engine first introduced in 1931 and last used in the late 1940's. Of course not just any Cadillac car can have such a phenomenal engine, so naturally a concept car was built. The concept, which you see above, is not only unproportinate, its downright ugly. The reasons I deem this car an eyesore are as that the Sixteen concept car carries with it the plow front design of the 2002 CTS, coupled with awful oversized chrome rims and a horrible profile. We should consider it a blessing that only one of every 20 concept cars every make it to production and we can hope that the Cadillac Sixteen remains on the stillborn list.

The next wave of oversized ugly vehicles will be spearheded by the new Chevrolet Equinox. While its pleasing qualities of sleek lines and smooth curves are abundunt, the fact that design was poorly thought out and an ugly SUV was the result makes it a candidate for this list. The front end resembles that of a Ford Explorer as does the body, not a sign that GM ran out of ideas now is it? However way you want to look it, the Equinox has earned its place in the ugly car limelight.

Dodge really did it this time. After building a line of hideously ugly cars in the past they really take the cake with this retro 'woodie' concept. I don't really have much to say about this car other that it is awful, but then again the design speaks for itself.

This design is for yet another wave for crappy Ford SUV's. This one looks like a Focus on steroids, I guess the engineering department ran out of original ideas, and since the compitition is building eyesores they had nothing to copy, so one guy said "Hey, lets make the Focus bigger and uglier and call it an SUV!" and this must have been approved because a concept ar has been built. Hopefully this car never sees production, but if it should the rating on my chart will move it up a few spaces thats for sure.

Ok folks, I think this car and this car alone stresses the reason I created this page. I mean really, look at this thing - would you want to be seen driving this? I figured out the formula for this design and it goes something like this: 2 parts Toyota Matrix 2 parts Pontiac Vibe and 6 parts UGLY = Kia Slice. So far I have to say this car is the ugliest on this page so far, I'm sure you will all agree.

I have to say this design makes Lincoln look desperate for designs. Not that thier cars were anything before, but this one... it just leaves me speechless. It looks like a moon mobile with a harmonica for a grill, it sits up too high, the tires are too big and the body is too small - did one of the engineers let thier 5 year old design this car? I've come to expect better fare from a company that sells $40,000 luxury cars.

Not wanting to be outdone by fellow marquee Lincoln, Mercury decided to design a car based on the Navicross, only in Coupe form, and thus the Messenger was born. It looks as if the rear end was borrowed from a Corvette Stingray of the 60's and the front end is a jumble of Dodge, Kia and Ford based designs. Add it all up and what to you get an EYESORE, and that is exactly what this car is.

The Mini Cooper made it to my page because of personal reasons and not so much for aesthetics. I greatly dislike the Mini for several reasons, the main reason being is that its British and we all know that British engineering is about as useless as tits on a bull, look at Jaguar for example, beautiful cars - mechanical nightmares. This applies to the Mini as well. The second reason I dislike the Mini is that it is both ugly and pointless, if I wanted to see a car with 10" tires that only sits 46" high I'd go the circus! And in my opinion that is where these cars belong. I am also horrified to learn that BMW manufactures these crap wagons. It's a shame to look and see what the automotive indusrty is coming to.

This car is on my list for the reason that one it is an SUV, and I hate them, and two it is ugly. Look at it, there is nothing visually pleasing about this vehicle whatsoever. I find its design to be boxy and crude, the pointed nose on the front end, what was the design team thinking? Because of these reasons the Outlander earns its home among the ugly.

This car is only a concept vehicle and I hope to God it stays that way. Look at it, its a combonation of all the compact cars built thus far combined into one super ugly excuse for a car. Mitsubishi must have decided to try and copy the Audi TT because most of this car resembles Audi design from the short and low front end to the rivetted gas cap and steering wheel. All in all UGLY is the first and only word that comes to my mind when dealing with this car.

This automotive nightmare somehow managed to make it into production no one really knows how or why, though I'd love to know. To me there is nothing pretty about this car, although I see it was inspired by Cadillac to add a "plow front" pointed nose. Everything from this car's appearance to its color offends me greatly and thus I have added it to my list of uglyiest cars.

Pontiac, like all the other Detroit models has decided to produce the most ugly and awful cars man has yet to see. They definately succeeded with the 2003 Sunfire. The original Sunfire design was nothing to jump up and down about, but this new 2003 model has upped the ugly factor about 15 points. Everything from the wrap around headlights to the pointed back end is just awful on this car, and it has made its prominent mark on my list.

Saturn has really stooped to a new low with this design. I'm not saying that Saturns were attractive in the past, but I must say the older cars certainly look a hell of a lot better than this one. I had the oppertunity to see several up close and personal and I find everything about the car to be junk. The gaps between the body panels ranges from half and inch to snug and tight, and at no point are they consistent, revealing the garbage engineering that went into thier design. The dash cluster being mounted in the center of the dash offends me as I don't think it belongs there and certainly doesn't improve the visibility any like Saturn claims, the tiny steering wheel and awful interiors are no selling point either. Most of all I dislike the body, square and boxy fitted with awful looking rims to boot. I'm sorry Saturn but I would not spend $21,000 (starting price, base model ION) on this car and I'm sure a lot of other smart consumers won't either.

I laugh everytime I see one these on the road, I really do. How could you not, I mean look at them - they remind me of clown cars, big boxy ugly body with teeny tiny little wheels. This car made the list because its just ugly. The reasons its ugly are apparent, but I will explain them for the sake of argument. The body is huge and disproportionate with the rest of the car, the tires and rims are undersized and just comical to look at, and the designing is just awful as well. This is a wagon pictured here, the sedans don't look quite so bad but are still worthy of my list, only because I did'nt want two of the same car on the list did I not picture the sedan with the wagon.
