I really don't mind the Subaru Forester (the GT version anyway)... guess it's because I'm into SUV's a lot?

Default Not a pretty sight . . .

Body kits and torched springs sorta limit the off-road capabilities of the Forester.

Fall of '01, I was in a coffee shop off the Interstate in central Colorado when three new Aztecs drove in (possibly a meet?) and circled the building looking for a parking space. About 75 people in the shop noticed the trio drive around the building, stopped their conversations . . . and giggled. Now that's ugly, when a crowd of people actually swivel their heads to follow your ride - and laugh! Yeah, my vote's for the Aztec. Maybe with a body kit . . . ?

I've seen one parked and I went to check it out. The frotn is the best looking out of any BMW, but the bakc is just hideous. There's so much more to see when its actually parked instead of when its driving on the highway.

OK, so cars are made to be enjoyed/analyzed when they're parked? That's very strange thinking.

0l33l is not saying that cars were made to be analyzed when they are parked BUT we are talking about a cars looks in this thread, are we not?

Read the title I bet the car drives well, but it still looks ugly from the back. Me and my friends agree on that

What are YOU talking about? I WAS talking about how the car LOOKS...in motion, which is its natural element!

A car is parked for most of its life, so its natural element is being parked. I'm surprised you didn't know that

I'm surprised you would post that. Actually, no, I'm not. Do you have a file of ridiculous ideas you choose statements from to put in your posts? So you're telling me cars are designed to be parked, since "its natural element is being parked"???

If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it matter? If a 6 is parked in a garage at night and no one sees it, is it still ugly?

Again,

Personally I hate the Aztek and the Armada/QX56 more than anything. Runners-up, I'm gonna have to say value cars like Kias, Hyundais (not the new Tiburon though), etc. I hate how the Bangled Bimmers look, but they are NOT the worst looking cars...just bad looking.
