The Pontiac Aztek was so ugly that every modern crossover seems to be designed to look exactly like it.

Pontiac was always ahead of their time, back then claimed to be ugly. Recent years now we see it as okay looking compared to everything else.

[@terencejay8845]

UK: My 'Uncle' Harold had a Bubblecar, and I was small enough to stand up in it. It was fun. I rented a Gremlin on a USA trip in 1976 (and a Pacer) I thought it looked fine. I'd like an S-cargo to run about in. Plenty of headroom. The Juke sold quite well here and you do see quite a few around.

[@wisefrog33]

List even has Prowler as an ugly car! L list, totally

[@WaydeKillmeyer-bu3lw]

Lists like this, more than almost anything, prove the old adage that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There are at least five cars on this list that I thought were great-looking, mainly because they did NOT try to conform to the standard that everyone expects. I love the Gremlin. I love the Cube. I love the VW Thing. If it weren't a Chrysler product, I would want a PT Cruiser. If I ever find a Suzuki X-90 in decent shape, I'm going to buy it. I currently own a Nissan Juke. I wanted one from the moment I first saw one, and bought a good, used one three years ago. I put about 15,000 miles on it in those three years, and I drove it on the round trip from Pittsburgh to Myrtle Beach twice. It was comfortable, reliable, and FAST. It turns heads everywhere I take it, and in a good way.

[@9y2bgy]

No way. I love the Cube! It's soooo weird that it's come around to being great.

[@ssjichigo666]

honestly the mantis looks like a cool design, reminds me of the stingray design

[@mmcfreds]

The Gremlin is awesome!! We used to soupe them up with small blocks, meaty rear tires, and custom paint jobs.

[@rickyrosay33977]

I also like the gremlin it's the most unique looking muscle car I've ever seen

[@genkigirl4859]

Gremlin X was a contender right out of the box.

[@Reaperguy67]

I agree with you on that , it's like a fridge. Also it was hit with a recall as well. Basically what happened, the plastic part that was glued to the gas padel was coming unstuck from it. Also there was a video where someone showed it getting stuck. That's dangerous.

Haven't spotted an isetta but did spot an zündapp janus a car pretty similiar to the isetta. A car that was pretty bad and had an reason why it was called a "lemon"

[@ChristiesThisnThat]

I drove my 2002 Pontiac Aztek for 17 year and absolutely loved it! Had the tent and camped in it every summer. It was like a Swiss Army Knife on wheels - could carry groceries, could go out on date night, had AC in the back seat for the kids, and enough room in the back to bring home a dryer. I miss it!

[@katashworth41]

The Reliant Robin had 3 wheels so it could be driven on a motorcycle licence.

[@JamesDavy2009]

And it was the only car to get a DNF from The Stig.

[@gsdfan8455]

How can the Gremlin be on this list and not the Pacer?

[@RedCerberus010]

I don't think that Gremlin and Pacer are bad looking. I think they are unique

[@rndmpinkiepie64]

The Prowler is beautiful. Your inclusion of it on this list is wrong

[@PaulADAigle]

After the AMC Gremlin, I was sure to see the AMC Pacer. Its design was very weird, but I loved mine. I was still weird though. Common nicknames: "Bubble on Wheels", "Pregnant Rollerskate", etc.

[@ravenscarlettanis13]

[@californiahiker9616]

I knew somebody in 1950‘s Germany who drove an Isetta in town. The driver was handicapped. This car permitted her to get in and out more easily than a regular car would.

[@catjudo1]

Who "almost universally" considers the Cube the worst car of all time? People who have never heard of Zastava and the Trabant, apparently and have never turned a wrench in their lives. Also, no one has ever seen a Citroen 2CV? I love the weird cars, but in truth they look like tin snails (and look that way so that they can be both inexpensive peoples cars and worked on easily). And the Smart?

[@frankbrodie5168]

I once hit 60mph on a dead straight road in my daughters Smart car taking it to Tesco to refuel it for her. It was singularly the scariest experience I have EVER had driving a vehicle. And I speak as an ex-Post Office lorry driver who one day whilst not paying attention encountered a newly built roundabout that I was not expecting, whilst doing 60mph in my 7.5 ton P.O. lorry. We're talking video game playing levels of expertise to get across that roundabout without hitting anything. Many pants were soiled that day.

[@HBIC-te7me]

The Citroen is called Ente in Germany, which means duck (the animal). I’ve always loved that car!!

[@gemnifan6045]

[@johnjones3813]

Ya, this list is really stupid.

[@dreibel]

my father bought a used BMW Isetta in the mid sixties - he gutted it and used the parts to use as a tractor for around the property. He then planted the body in the back yard so myself and my brothers to pretend to drive it. Ours was the three-wheel version of it. The Reliant Robin was Mr. Bean's nemesis in many of the episodes and later cartoon series. The Gremlin may have been homely, but AMC sold a lot of them - very reliable and handled well. Not like its competition, which exploded (Pinto) or rusted and had warped engine blocks (Vega)

[@genkigirl4859]

And this is why all cars look alike…because people complain when they try to make something like different,so now all our cars look like this shoe 👟

However, I had electronic issues from day one. I really like the Lagonda, but from what I understand, it has more issues than National Geographic.

[@gagebritton8695]

You forgot the Citroën C4 Picasso also I call it the egg mobile.

[@RetroKingOG]

Fun fact probably you guys didn’t even know: Lagonda was intentionally created to be a luxury brand separate from Aston Martin. Like Rolls Royce to BMW or Bentley to VW! Lagonda wasn’t a trim level of Aston it was a whole different brand. But as you can probably see, they attempted to sell that particular lagonda back in the 70s for 190,000$ You can tell they failed miserably And the Aztek was extremely underrated, it wasn’t as bad as everyone raved about! The last years when it was full coloured rather than two tone, actually didn’t look so bad!

[@whaduzitmatr]

rolling a PT Cruiser today, a weird but oddly functional little car

[@pcno2832]

I can see why people didn't take the Prowler or the PT Cruiser seriously, but I don't get why they were so hated. They don't strike me as unusually ill-proportioned and the PT Cruiser was really a Neon with a lot more space. As far as retro-imposter-cars go, the first generation New Beetle was more annoying. There are so many cars, like the Datsun F10, the Delorean, and the Lambroghini Countch that deserve to be on this list more than any of the retro-phonies.

My wife fell in love with the look of the PT Cruiser, so i got her one. Turned out to be a great car. We live on a farm in Saskatchewan so it saw some pretty hard duty- gravel roads, snowdrifts that would rip the bumpers off most newer cars, and extreme cold. It was roomy, great on gas, warm in winter and ice cold in dummer. It stuck to icy roads and it was comfortable on long trips. My wife cried when she had to finally park it after almost 400k on the odometer. I was never much of a Mopar fan, but damn, that thing was tough.

[@visionsofbeyond9095]

Personally, I like a lot of these cars. But as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I've always loved the Plymouth Prowler, definitely one of my favorite car designs of all time. I've also always liked the Gremlin, it has a unique, quirky charm to it. I liked the PT Cruiser's modern throwback look, I think it's a good design. It must have looked good, because where I used to live in Southern California, they were absolutely everywhere. Honestly, some of these cars just make me laugh.
