Car bashing thread.

This is a thread to bash/talk about cars you just don't like, or cars that you don't understand why anyone buys, or why they are sucessful.

Please, no extremely harsh bashing. Lets be mature.

Do not bash anyone's car from this site.

Do not post a picture of anyone's car from this site.

If you post a picture of the particular car, please post a picture of it stock.

These are the cars that make me wonder:

Bentley Arnage/Azure/Brooklands
I think its really ugly, and don't understand why anyone would spend $267,000 on any. On the other hand, the Continental and Flying Spur are

2010 BMW Z4
Possibly the ugliest shape ever put into the automotive industry. I'll spend my $52,475 elsewhere.

Maybach 57/57S & 62/62S
Looks worse than the S-Class and way more expensive. I'll take a S65 AMG.

Rolls-Royce Ghost & Phantom
Again, really ugly in my eyes. Basically, you are paying for bragging rights. I'd rather spend it on a Porsche 911, and still have a really fat bank account.

Scion xB & xD
Countless dealer installed options can't hide an ugly face.

Cadillac Escalade
Cost too much, uses too much, gives too little. Not the best looker, and there are WAY better options out there. Just don't get why people still think Escalades are cool?

Discuss and add your own cars...

All of mine were cars that I think are ugly and/or cost too much. Two things that really bother me when considering one...

I always wonder about Smart. Its completely useless and way too expensive for what it is IMO and there are better options out there and they are fairly priced.

^ good one. They aren't the ugliest on the road, but agree on the useless. They are really pricey for what they are. For such a small car, and such a small engine, I expected better mileage.

I'd rather buy a used Prius, which is still ugly. Which is another discussion in itself. Why can't they make an AFFORDABLE, sexy hybrid.

I'd rather have Yaris or Fit or Accent hatchback or focus or cobalt over Smart POS.

Pontiac Aztek (excellent choice for a free car no one would take)

Large SUV's (why is it only white women are the ones using them as minivans?)

Chrysler Sebring / Dodge Avenger (why sell the exact same piece of shit, with a different name?)

Most Chrysler products that use the same interiors (too many have huge expanses of plastic)

The Dodge Challenger (only because it is too heavy, and the steering wheel is right out of their cheap, other cars)

Subaru WRX STi - I love the car, but the interior, on a $35K car, should not look like the $18K rental car with a 1.5L engine. I'm sorry, it just does not work for me.

Some people find it sexy, I find it ugly as sin.




Sorry, have I gone too far?

I'm gonna go ahead and nip this in the bud now. I know the OP posted asking others not to bash member cars, etc... however, the bottom line is that this thread isn't really going to serve any productive purpose to the forum... and people will eventually be offended by others posting about certain cars whether they're being serious or trying to be funny, then the mods will be getting PMs and reported posts.

So, before all of that happens... we'll just end it now.
