Stupidest Looking Car Ever?


<<  1    2  >>

Topic started on 9-5-2007 @ 06:39 PM by GradyPhilpott


This is a Suzuki something or other--X-90 or something like that.

I've never driven one, so maybe the joke is on me, but for my money this has to be one of the stupidest looking cars ever built.

What's your take on this subject?

Oh, yeah, that's pretty stupid looking all right. What's the point anyway? Two passengers and a couple of grocery bags maybe?

Yeah, that one does look fun, but it is highly modified.

The stock version leaves me cold.

Is the guy in the back PUSHING? Or just arranging luggage? LOL

On the original car posted.
Someone actually went to a dealership, and said "I want THAT one".

I did a little research on stupid looking cars and this one came up.

According to the article, this one is actually scheduled for production.

This one certainly deserves an honorable mention:

There's an insurance ad on tv for vintage and classic cars here in australia thats quite well known that features the Goggomobile.

I'm sorry, but I don't think anything can beat the AMC Matador for ugliness, although some of the hybrids and a couple of SUVs are pretty ghastly.

Pic o' the Matador

Edit ~ Is that Suzuki a 4-wheel drive thing?

It's been a long time since I've seen a Matador and the fact is that American Motors was the worst car manufacturer in the history of automotives, well, except for Yugo, maybe, but that picture looks pretty good.

In retrospect, it looks quite exotic to me.

The answer is yes and here's a not too surprising little tidbit of information.

In 2004 BBC's Top Gear magazine awarded the car [Suzuki X-90] the status of the worst car of all time.

The Matador!
Thats so funny. THats the First car I started Googling, when I saw Grady's thread. I was interrupted, so I didn't make a post..But I sure DO agree!

DO you remember the commercials?

"What is it?"
It's...a Matador (stupid!)

It really looked like the Chimera, of Automobiles.

Just a matter of personal opinion, but I think that the Scion Xb is one of the most rediculous automobiles ever created.

It looks like a square with wheels going down the road.

What are the genius' at Scion going to think of next? An equlateral triangle car?

Thats my guess.

On another note, not that I am hating on environmentally sound cars, but the Honda Insight is just digusting looking. Maybe if they took as much time in the design of the car as they did on making it so eco-friendly, I would buy one.

Not gonna happen anytime soon, cause its still UGLY!

I always thought the PT Cruiser was pretty dumb looking, but I think the car in the picture even has it beat!!

These things, I HATE these things, who wants to drive around in a box? Man every time I see one of these things on the road I just want to pull it over and laugh at the driver for an hour.

Yeah what, those are pretty odd looking...and boxy.


All these new cars that run on different kinds of fuel and stuff, why can't they look like regular cars?



Why do they have to have so many curves and different shapes?

I had a friend that said she wanted one of those Gangster cars. I asked her what the heck she was talking about. She replied, "The PT Cruiser"

Pretty funny when heard that.


I think my van is the stupidest looking vehichle, because I've lived in it for the last 10 years and I tired of seeing it.

Actually, any three wheel cars expecially the ones that have the two wheels in front.
