I really like the design of the Element. It might be different, but it has style.

On the other hand there are some ugly cars outthere. Here are some from the last few years. What do you think wins the UGLY Award?

I hate the xB. I thought it was ugly from the get-go. It's just a square cardboard thing on 3 inch wheels..LMAO. I think it's stupid. The Element is at least rugged and not made cheapily. :rolleyes:

I would have said Aztek two years ago... but my Ex wife has one.. and I do have to say it was very roomy and comfortable as hell to ride in and nice to drive. *shrug* I think there are lots of cars uglier than that. Malibu Maxx, Hyundai Sante Fe, Ford Taurus.... gawd... so many.... LOL

OMG, the AMC Pacer! No wonder, it was a giant bubble on wheels. :lol: However for the record, I vote for the Aztek as the most butt-ugliest vehicle in the new millenium. Sort of cross between an SUV in front and a combat Humvee on the butt end. :lol:

I voted for the ASS-TEC too...but it is actually a cross between a Chevrolet Lumina APV (the van thing) and a VW THING.

The Aztec, hands down!
It looks like while they were in the clay stage somebody went at the back with a hatchet by accident and they LIKED it! Or perhaps that they got to a point and just ran out of money to FINISH it so they just put a piece of glass across the back and said "that's it". MY opinion is that the Aztec was obviously designed by a group who couldn't agree on ANYTHING so they each did THEIR section the style they preferred and then somebody Photoshopped it all together.
Which kinda reminds me of the old C&W song about the guy who built the Cadillac by bringing home all the parts in his lunchbox every week over like 25 years. No two parts of it went together or were even from the same YEAR.
I know some people find the E ugly and "funny" looking but the E design was obviously well thought out even if not the "look" people have gotten accustomed to.

LMAO!! :lol: Tango's right too. Does look like somebody did a hatchet job and covered the hole with a big sheet of glass! Everytime I see one on the road, I have to chuckle to myself and I pity the poor soul behind the wheel.

The E may be a box, but it's an elegant box as opposed to the xB, which looks like a mini'ed armored car. Our E's have curves!:grin:

Hey, like I said before... the Azteks are nothing to look at really... but they are comfy as hell to ride in and spacious.

It is ugly and the blind spots are a B****, but hey... I personally think there are uglier cars on the road.

I'd rather be seen in an Aztek than any Hyundai, xB, or any HHR... but I guess we all have our opinions. If we didn't, life would be very boring. :-D

I like the coupe too. Still not sure about the sedan or the new guage cluster in either one. But I needed a 10th and it being new came to mind.

Aztek was pretty fugly, and I never understood why people thought the xB was so cool either. Isn't the Scion line based on the Echo?

Could always take the Civic out a slide in the Toyota Yaris.....

The first time a Honda Dealer showed me an Element and suggested that I might be interested in it, my response was that it was ugly and I wouldn't consider it. After I researched the vehicle, I realized that its beauty was in it's function ability, and I came to think of the Element as a great looking vehicle. I ended up purchasing a 2006 RAV4 and like it a lot, but when I look at every Element I see I wonder "what if?”

ThE Aztec is definatly not what I would buy, but some models are actually pretty cool looking, I think it is a certain trim level. But all it ever did for me was get me to say... "well, that's not that bad."

Also I was pretty disappionted to see the Hummer was not on your list, cause that car is hideous.

If I had to pick from the list I would pick the Xb solely because of the front bumper. But I kinda like the Scion (aside from it's infunctionality) & bumper. And it only has 5.1" ground clearence

Man, one of my neighbors has the Aztek. Lemme tell ya, it's just as ugly in real life as it is in pictures!

Yeah, definitely have to take the civic out and I would put the Nissan Quest mini van in place of it. That is one ugly mini van for sure! It's probably second to the Aztec in ugliness department.

Glass houses guys, glass houses.

Element owners calling the Aztek ugly is just like Shelly Duvall calling Phillis Diller ugly.

I’m disturbed at your choice of analogy and even more disturbed that you took the time to find the photos. Or did they come from your personal collection? :razz:

nice first post.

You're on to me. I've had a crush on Shelly Duvall since 'Brewster McCloud'.

Yes, I'm a sick puppy..:twisted:

A lot of people I know asked me why I would buy "such an ugly car"... which is why my license plate (and my name here) is Uglykar! Personally, I like the look of the Element; very unique!

I think the ugliest car on the road is the PT Cruiser. Hate it!
