View Full Version : Making ugly cars look decent ?
Gojirra99 07-08-04, 09:15 PM These are 2 of the fugliest cars ever produced IMO. They do look better with mods, though still not enough to make me want them. What do you think ?

SupraCoup3 07-08-04, 09:29 PM now go and do something with the Aztec -- I dare you! :D
1SICKLEX 07-08-04, 09:34 PM I will get scolded for this but outside the silly lights and ugly plastic bottom, the Aztek, IMO had potential. That guy proves it, looks very good.
Z4=looks like a folded piece of paper. :thumbdn: :thumbdn:

Ohh that Aztek was so low, I thought it was a vibe... but looking at it again, it is the Aztek... hmmm.
Wow, talk about a drop.
Aztek isn't too bad at all. The Z4 however, i think it's too much. Z4's got some nice characteristics to it, but i've never really liked the back ends on the BMW roadsters. It's too short in the back.
AristoTDOT 07-08-04, 10:56 PM I like the Z4
GS400kid 07-08-04, 11:12 PM 19" BBS LMs yummy:p

lexusondubs 07-08-04, 11:26 PM the aztec is cool very different :)
XeroK00L 07-08-04, 11:44 PM Dunno...a pig is still a pig no matter how many lipsticks you put on it, IMO. The mods still do nothing for me.:confused:
But ya...the BBS LM's themselves have me drooling all over.:p
Davtown 07-08-04, 11:48 PM I remember seeing pics awhile back of an Aztek with a C5R motor transplanted into it :eek2: I'd definitely hit that....
Davtown 07-08-04, 11:50 PM Here are some high-res shots of that Aztek that Mike posted.... that actually is the C5R powered one I was talking about!

lexusondubs 07-09-04, 12:01 AM id pimp it :thumbup:
joshthorsc 07-09-04, 01:17 AM The aztek looks pretty nice, minus the front end and it gots lots of ponies. :thumbup:
pvmike1 07-09-04, 04:44 AM A stock bodied z4 with rims looks decent. I definitely wouldn't put it in the "fugliest car" category...

adidosc 07-09-04, 06:38 AM i'd move that 600hp aztec over to the sleeper category... nobody would guess it had that much power :p
I never thought I say anything positive about an Aztec but that looks pretty sick! Those wheels, fenders, and drop make all the difference. The front styling still needs to go though.
The Z4 is still ugly.
VSsc400 07-09-04, 12:23 PM the aztech looks better than stock
the Z4 stock looks better than that.
engineering on the aztech is amazing.
The Aztec is interesting, I don't like all the lights up front, the exhaust port/s and the flared fender flares. The fender flares look like slap on stuff. The shape, lowering and wheels greatly help the appearance though. 600 hp nice...but in that car. :confused:
Z4:thumbdn: Curved lines and the sharp-straight combinations...ugh:egads:
Xenthar 07-09-04, 08:04 PM the aztec still looks ugly but the z4 looks nice. The only thing i dont like about the z4 is the front because it looks like a shark
that aztec looks pretty tight, but i still wouldnt buy one. the Z4 looks worse than it did stock. It figures that the aztec there was built by Pontiac, because, that took A LOT of work to get that car to look like that. It also looks like it rolling on 21's or 22's.
flipspeed 07-10-04, 04:02 AM since we're on the subject of making "ugly" cars look decent; "ugly" being subjective, the previous subaru impreza with the round headlamps comes to mind. to me, its not really an ugly car but in stock form it doesn't do it for me. but once you slap on a body kit, that thing looks mean. even putting eyebrows transforms the look of the front end. also, the lancer doesn't look good imo yet the evo looks so much nicer that you forget it's a lancer. i don't like how the evo looks without the wing though. a car that i truly think is ugly would be a civic hatchback... all generations. but once you slap on a body kit, it's all good.
