wondering how this post went uncommented upon
Thank you, Mazda, for not even bothering to market that car in America.
Although, my favorite car I've ever had was a 323 Wagon that looked something like this:

...except it wasn't beat all to hell, had alloy wheels and a sunroof.

lol tinypic has a nasty habit of purging images and then reassigning the old names to newly uploaded images.

BMW 600
This is what a Bimmer looked like in 1959:

Not sure which is worse: how hideous it looked, or the contortions necessary just to get in the thing:

1976 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. Lest anyone miss it otherwise, let's use a second paint color to further accentuate the misshapen lump on the fenders

Apparently any BMW 'X' model is a fugly bulbous SUV wannabe. All SUVs are gross but these really offend me.

Any hatchbacks with SUV pretensions are gross, actually, from Nissan to Porsche

WTH is it about those Nissan mini-SUVs that causes them to be owned by the most lazy wankers imaginable? A couple of weeks ago I was walking past the corner shop when one pulled up outside, and a fairly young guy got out and went into the shop. I kept walking down the road, and a couple of minutes later I was passing the office of a small ad exec/marketing, when this same Nissan came up and parked in one of the spaces out front. Same guy gets out, and for a second he looked at me before scurrying sheepishly inside. I didn't say anything, but I suppose I did have a look on my face that said "WTF? why didn't you just walk?"

I internally (and externally to my gf) refer to hatchback-turned-SUV drivers collectively as "Muranos". Especially when they zoom by on the right when traffic is backed up and then wedge their way back in.

they're annoying. that over-stuffed thing. subconsciously they make me think of bloated consumer culture or something radical like that. like a car that ate too much on thanksgiving.

is there anything from the 80's that everyone thought was hideous and now people think its kinda funky/cool? and will this ever happen to anything from the 90's? cuz obviously there are 70's and 60's things like that. belated AMC love and all that.

i love it when the driver's face mimics the expression his or her car is making though. which is usually the case with angry headlight cars.

what's with stage platform grills, is that a wind tunnel thing too i wonder? all new cars look like flash websites basically.

its not just windtunnels its the technology to easily make car bodies into any old shape that has really just given designers way too many option
