man the wrx isnt ugly....neither is the enzo

[Jesda]

The Enzo is what happens when a woman takes steroids and spends way too much time at the gym. Its overdone and lacks grace.

[base9se]

I agree that the BMW M coupe belongs in that category. Dunno 'bout the WRX though.

the wrx is fine. These stupid ricers need to go to hell. Enzo's face isn't as good looking as the other models.

"How to get free sex from strangers"........ LMFAO yah lets do that chick from the grocery store in the bathroom. She has crabs whomp whomp

I was just talking with somone last night about the Z3 M Coupe, how can anyone call this ugly??

[MinisterofDOOM]

I love the M coupe. It's one of the best looking small sports cars ever made. And the Morgan Aero 8 is gorgeous. The new mustang is also a great looking car. Too bad its only pulling a painfully DISGUSTING 300 hp out of a freaking 4.6 liter SOHC--NOT pushrod--V8!!!! And that's the high end GT!!! Even Nissan's VH45 makes more power than that...something ain't right there.

The Cayenne and WRX...yes, those are ugly...the Cayenne needs to die.

[HashiriyaS14]

I think that both the WRX and the Evo are great looking cars. These people likely wouldn't like the R34 either.

I have no idea how they can include the Aero 8 in there, I mean, huh???

M coupes rule.

Most definitely. It's the most "brutish" Ferrari design i've ever seen. What made them think stealing the lines off the F1 car would look good?

I definitely dislike the M coupe, i like it's versatility, but it's just too weird looking with that big ol' bubble for a back-end. It's very reminiscent of the body shape of hatchbacks like the Honda Civic. Should've been more wedge-shaped like the 240 fastback version.

How the hell can the complain about the STI? Or the 04 Impreza's for that matter? It's definitely a major improvement to the bug-eye Imprezas of 02-03. It's obivious Subaru got the feedback about them or else they wouldn't have changed the style so quickly.

[Jesda]

The Morgan looks like a cross-eyed child that should be transported on a short bus.

The S-class coupe isnt ugly, just intensely dull.

And the M coupe starts looking good out of that batch of dim designs.

The Subaru's credit, quirky WRX was never intended to look like a typical sports car. They went for the rally car theme, though it doesnt always express itself elegantly on the street -- perhaps it isnt supposed to.

Of course it wasn't. It's a rally car. The Sti and the WRX are just production models for the public. There is no 'sports car' made by Subaru in the traditional sense of the word.

The Ezo is what happens when top engineers spned millions of dollars and thousands of man hours in the wind tunnel and at a CAD terminal. Function is not always pretty.

Why is the SLR not on that list? That this is uckin fugly.

It might look better covered in mud.

[s13sr20chris]

ok, enzo needs off the list. style no, but ugly HECK NO! new listmercedes benz slr(thanks for the idea rico)porsche cayannenissan wingroad(jdm dont go far in my book)new lotus elise(the old euro version was hot!!!, but the new one is ugly)ferrari 575M(the hood scoop kills me)porsche 356cant think of any more right now...

[jEzTeR]

LOL

I never liked the Enzo much....but I think it's the price that makes me sick more than its looks.

[BoostFab]

i think the article is stupid...i can agree with the mustang, but the m roadster doesn't belong in the list.

[VashFC]

I'm a huge fan of things that are function over form. I love little ugly 5hit boxes that are fast and handle great. All these cars here are nice really.... even the Cayenne as most people disgree with me. It's ugly, yeah, but it's so well engineered. I dunno... I guess I have ****ed up priorities.

[Jesda]

I took a Cayenne S for a spin (kid I know bought one, damn rich kids). Quick, awesome brakes, handles okay for its massive weight, but I preferred my old Q for overall execution.

The interior had some striking flaws too, such as early wear on the leather (the seat slides and rubs against the map pocket) and plastics that didnt properly snap in place.

Not only is it an eyesore, it dragged Porsche's high overall quality ratings into the crapper.

btw, the stunning Mustang was not part of the article, it was just on the cover of that issue.

i never thought the enzo looked good untill i saw the top gear episode where they drove one, and it was beautiful there, i just think the photos dont do the car justice.

[Chingon]

only good thing an m coupe is good for, is to donate it's engine to a gull wing mercedez to finish the Pan-am race...

Of course it wasn't. It's a rally car. The Sti and the WRX are just production models for the public. There is no 'sports car' made by Subaru in the traditional sense of the word.

I think the WRX/STI are pretty homely, and I'm a fan of both the cars themselves and rallying too.

They look like econo-boxes with huge hood scoops and wings...which, as far as the appearance goes, they mostly are. IMO, as far as WRC cars go, the Subie is far behind the the Citroen Xsara and the Peugeot 306. Hell, even the Skoda Fabia looks better.

Luckily, looks don't win a rally.

So, yeah, I can't argue with the "ugly but oh so irresitable" tag on the Sti.

[MinisterofDOOM]

Anybody seen pics of the new Mercedes A class. Now THAT'S ugly!!







YECH!!!!!!

[HashiriyaS14]

Shoulda seen the OLD Mercedes A-Class, even uglier. Things are everywhere in Europe.

[MinisterofDOOM]

Have you seen the little cartoon making fun of the old A class in Road & Track? It's got training wheels on the back...wierd.

[Jesda]

Of the bazillion 4-door hatcheroos tooling around Europe and Asia, the A-class is the best looking -- but that isn't saying much.

[StrangeLove]

the new mustang is so ****ty, lacks any sort of performance, looks incredibly cheap, and its UGLY

[prigo]

The STI looks fine, its a step above the bug-eyed GDB's.

The Mustang looks cool, I like it a lot.

I agree, the Enzo is somewhat asslike, but for the performance you get, looks don't matter.
