I personally like the 300. Especially after finally driving a 300C over the weekend, its a great looking car inside and out, and drives good as well for a big car.
All the others, I strongly agree with,except the xB and Magnum. Done correctly, those cars are pretty damn nice.
Cars that I would have liked to see on that list are...
Z4
Quest
LaCrosse
that ugly Mitsu truck. Forgot the name, but its ugly as sin
Aveo
Echo
Amanti
Rendevous

It looks like a shrink-wrapped Jeep Grand Cherokee.

I think the new Montero is ugly one where the endeavor is just a bad clone of the jeep.
I disagree with alot of cars on that list.
These are ugly:
AZTEK-yeah, they still make these
AVALANCHE
BUICK LA CROSSE, RAINIER
RIDGELINE-I've seen only 2 since this thing came out.

10. BMW 5 Series
"With the granny glasses headlights and awkward body creases, it looks like a Pontiac on acid."
9. Chrysler 300
"Did Chrysler have the head of a cow in mind when designing this car?
8. Dodge Magnum
"The Welsh Corgi of the car world — wishes to be a big dog, but too short to the ground."
7. Chevy Avalanche
"Adorned with more plastic than Anna Nicole Smith."
6. Subaru Baja
"Looks more at home in Prague.
5. Chrysler PT Cruiser
"So ugly, I get mad just looking at it."
4. Honda Element
"A rollover would improve its looks!"
3. Hummer H2
"The automotive equivalent of Aunt Bertha."
2. Toyota Scion xB
"Its appearance should serve as an innovative but effective first line of defense against car theft" while another wondered if, "the cleaning lady took the plans out of the trash as a joke — and nobody noticed."
1. Pontiac Aztek
"It looks like it went into the crusher before the showroom!"
"It looks the way Montezuma's revenge feels."
"Was Pontiac taken over by a high school shop class?"

I, for one, pretty much agree with the whole list. The 300 is a "polarizer"--people either love the bold styling or hate it, and I hate it. There are no Buicks on the list because Buicks are too bland to be truly hideous. It takes an active failure of the design process, not mere indifference, to produce these ugly beasts. The Ford Five Hundred falls into that category, just like the entire Buick line.
You know what? The one that I don't think deserves to be on the list is the Baja. Every time I see one on the road I think to myself, "Subaru's never gonna sell a lot of those, but the way it's put together, aesthetically speaking, is just right."
The one vehicle I'd add to the list in the Baja's place? The Mercedes G-Class. I can't believe they have the cajones to SELL that despicable box, let alone that people actually pay good money to BUY them.

I think we all can come up with our list of the most ugliest cars, its so subjective. I think the only car on that list that is actually ugly is the Aztek the rest are unique the love or hate type but not ugly.

The Aztek and the Element would appear on everyone's list I think.
