GTEASER Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Haha. Yep the Yugo. In my senior year high school yearbook the predictions said I was slated for infamy as the car designer that turned Yugo around and made them direct competetors with Lamborghini. Never happened.

Brett Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 the side profile of the new tc is just terrible. it looks good from the front and rear, but that's it. it's the roof. Buick Rendezvous is quite awful as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hearse with side pipes and it looks like it has stretched tires too. At least he don't hold back on his design efforts. And isn't that the point behind show cars - go wild?

ehsnils Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 i don't get how the unimog is in a ugly list. its a beauty in function. Of course it's a functional vehicle, but it's still ugly.

05GT Guru Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 That Acura is fugly. The tundras are not ugly IMO and should not be on this list. Now the infiniti fx SUVs I agree with as they look like big shoes. And they sound like a high strung sporty car in what is supposed to be a refined SUV.

mbshop Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 you expect a ferrari ? its functionally great lookin. function and form can actually be very appealing. Of course it's a functional vehicle, but it's still ugly. Some vehicles could really have benefited from a good designer to take the step from functional but ugly to awesome.

Stang70Fastback Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Quite frankly, I always liked the look of that Sequoia. It was big and burly looking, which matched its physical dimensions. It wasn't trying to look sleek and sporty. It just looks very unassuming and truthful, but in a good way. Same with the Tundra. Kind of the opposite of the current Chevys and Fords, which are trying WAY too hard to be tough-looking and end up overly boxy - almost like caricatures.

twisty Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 i always thought the tundras looked out of proportion. like the windows were too small for the rest of the truck. and the wheel wells were the wrong shape or size. kind of like the downs kid of the class, lumpy shoulders and small eyes that were too close together.

It was way ahead of its time, and the boxy design was common in the 80's. And with a 7.2 liter V12 from the Countach it wasn't under-motorized either.

I completely agree with this abotu the tundras. They do not look proportionate. The bottom the truck is big and bubbly and the top looks like it has been chopped which makes the windows look smaller. I still wouldn't call them ugly. They look ok for what they need to do... be a truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
