    That was a brutal front end. I drove a sedan version in HS for 1 year.

    Why is this considered such a supremely ugly car design ? I can think of far worse.

    Welllllllllll......Although if I could find a nice one today sure I'd drive it and put up with the ridicule.....BUT they have grown on me......


    ...............It's Fugly on the front end period, were Fugly when I saw them on the lots brand new. IMO, I don't think his would not be in the top 2 if it came to a poll of Fugly if this front end style was included, if someone wanted to start one:whistle:


    I'd still drive it........even though the pale blue makes it look even worse:p but I would take care of the Fugly Duckling(y)


    And you ask the question posting a pic of a "nice" example.....:naughty:.....of Fu.........:rofl2:

    We built the headlamps and front park & turn for that, what a nightmare.
