Won't argue about any, as much is personal taste.
The BMW Series 7 doesn't look bad to me, nor the new VW Bug.
I'm amused every time I see an Aztek, and almost laugh, so I don't
see them as "ugly." More like funny.
The one that I commonly see that just plain strikes me as ugly enough
to almost change my mood downward is the Element.
Never looked into the features - maybe they have some redeeming
qualities.
But I'd no more criticize a man's car than I would his wife.
Not to his face, anyway.
I've driven some pretty ugly rust buckets. But my wives have been
pretty.

It's all a matter of taste.. I actually think some of those cars look
pretty good (Ferrari Enzo, Toyota van, Subaru Baja, Toyota Prius, VW New
Beetle, DeLorean). The Volvo 240, and BMW 7 Series don't look too bad
either - I don't think those are ugly at all; there are certainly some
on that list that are a lot uglier. I don't think the Chrysler PT
Cruiser is too bad looking either, at least from the front.

I'm surprised to find some of those cars on that list, honestly.

It would have been simpler to just post 50 pictures of any Toyota?

A lady friend and I rented a Fiat Multipla in Oslo airport once, because it
was
all they had. It performed fine but was so ugly we wanted to park it and
back
away from it.

Nah, bland maybe but not coyote ugly like an Aztek.

Interesting. Takes too long for me to watch each pic load when I click
on it and that's the only way I can tell which car is what. What is
everyone's opinion of the ugliest car-- maybe in the last 30 or so
years? Personally, I can't think offhand of anything uglier than the
humpbacked Sevilles of the early 80's, and those funny looking Malibus
and their sister cars that were also of similar humpback style-- late
70's? The 73 LeMans also is in the running. Other's opinions??

There is no question that the ugliest in past fifty years was the 1953
Plymouth.. More importantly which where the best looking?

My vote goes to the 1941 Lincoln Continental, prior to WWII and the 1953
Studebaker after the war. The '57 Chevy HT is still very popular at car
shows, but IMO the '56 HT had much better lines overall, nearly as gaudy.
