I may be the only one on this...but the Nissan GT-R!

I think it is ugly at best, but the pros are that it is a GT-R. We all know the numbers and we all love the performance, but I would switch for R34 ANYDAY!

I love what it is about so much though, that I had my name on the list to get one...pre-mark up days.

You're not alone.

The first time I saw it at the L.A. Auto Show, I decided I didn't like it.

However, you can't deny that the car is a beast.

mitsu lancer evo and subie wrx sti. both aren't exactly the best looking cars in the world, but i love the aggressive styling.

i think the GTR is not so ugly though, but that's just me.

I second the Lexus SC its quite an odd looking duck but the interior in that thing is drop dead gorgeous.

But that's the thing: function and form. The car's purpose is to be environmentally friendly. 85% recycleable and organic materials. Heck, even the seat cushions are made from seeds. The car could me more gas-efficient (yes, people still cry that the car "only gets 35mpg"...), but it does a pretty good job for what it is.

I've seen 2 in my neighborhood and I've been pleasantly surprised...looks pretty neat to me for a full hybrid....cooler than say a blah Camry Hybrid....looks better than an ES350 as well IMO.
