Though I never owned one myself I remember seeing the 1970 Ford Pinto everywhere. There are and was some really ugly cars out there!

I don't think the ford pinto is ugly, the DeLorean DMC-12 was in back to the future, they're whining about the Volkswagen beetle, because obviously they don't know what a beatle looks like, Cadillac Escalade really?? Ferrari Enzo ?! wow I can't even look rest of this list, thanks for posting but I think whoever compiled this is just looking for attention and is dillusional.

there are some butt-ugly cars out there - lol
a couple i did not see in the list
but, a VW bug (pre-70's) was never meant to be attractive, except to the pocket-book
i have owned a few and, as long as i can get into first gear without the gearshift jamming my leg into the steering wheel,
they are fun to drive - great little desert stompers - good on gas - easy to work on

as for cadiliacs, i have had a few of those also - lol
the older ones had 500 cu in engines in them - what a rocket sled
i was always a little surprised to see so much mass accelerate so rapidly
you could watch the speedometer go to the right and see the gas guage go to the left - lol
you could also run over that dead cow in the middle of the road and not notice the bump
i have had newer ones, as well - smaller cars with smaller (cheapo) engines
thing about caddys is - when they break, they are junk - it isn't worth the cost to have them repaired
i think gm intended them as a place to try out new fancy stuff and gadgets

here we go - lol
this is a great vehicle - so long as the front end stays on the ground
caddy 500 engine - notice the size of the gas tank - and the lack of space to help your neighbours move

Delusional? Well I don't know about that. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I checked out all 50 and them is some ugly rides !! :bg

I guess its a subjective expereience, I had a wade through the list and only found a couple that I did not like, the worst was the AU Lightburn Zeta, a truly ugly horrible little car. The new VW only faired a bit better.
