Audi R"Ain't"

Going to tackle a couple here. Above is a poor yet hideous rendition of the R8 in TT form. Below is a just plain sad attempt to replicate the look on a Mitsubishi Eclipse.

Attack of the Clones: RUF Stormster

The bloated widebody kit on the Cayenne, plus it's maniacally grinning grille, small 911 headlights and green paint reminds me horned "pacman" frog in defense mode. I'm not sure "angry frog" was the look they were going for.

The ZR1 Engine Window

This isn't to say that the ZR1 is ugly. I don't think it is... I little overwrought maybe, but not ugly. But I don't like the lame engine window. I could kind understand it if you could actually see the engine. But I window so you can look at a lame-ass engine cover? Boooo.

Toyota Origin

Again, other hideous JDM Toyota. Don't mean for this to be "rag on Toyota" day, but I'm on a roll and can't stop. Not unlike late model Toyotas. Oh snap!

The Toyota Origin was a special edition model, based off the Toyota Progrès, and meant to recall the Toyopet Crown. An inhouse Japanese neoclassic!

Verossa? More like Grossa...

Just another hideous JDM Toyota, this time with angry fish motif not unlike Mitsuoka.

If there's a WiLL, stay away...

I'm going to cover a couple cars in this post... Toyota sold three cars under the WiLL nameplate in Japan. These cars were seemingly designed to see just how fugly a car could be ans still have the public want to buy it, not unlike the Scion brand in North America. I'm going to cover two of the three, as the third I don't find all that fugly.



First up is the Toyota WiLL Vi, based on the Yaris - but with a bizarro symmetrical but asymmetrical body and ribbed body panels inspired by two of the world's fugliest cars - the Ford Anglia and the Citreon Ami.


The second is the Toyota WiLL Cypha, which is also based on the Yaris but with a circles and angles them.

Not what I would call Progrès

Apparently in Japan, they prefer to make about 15 version of the same basic car. Honda and Toyota especially seem to do this, or at least did in the 90's. Some of these cars are quite fugly, as if they ran out of ways to rehash the same basic car.

The car you see here is the Toyota Progrès, which debuted before the Toyota Altezza / Lexus IS, darling of the ricer set and the origins of many hideous aftermarket taillights. Those taillights, it seems, were inspired by the headlights on the Progrès' gaudy mug.

The Jaguar XJ's weird D-pillar

I've been a fan of the Jaguar XJ since it's inception (well - except for a brief time in the late 80's, but who wants to remember anything from the 80's anyway). But that weird-ass D-pillar on the new one completely destroyed my feelings for the new one. It just looks stupid. Maybe if the whole roof were black, but as it is now it looks like a manufacturing error. And those Lancia Thesis taillights are that great either. It's a shame - the XF turned out so well.

Merconda Town Car

It actually looks kind of convincing at first, until you see the Honda Accord headlights. Also note the Beemer rear end on the Lincoln in the background.

Ferrapri

A good sign that a car is not a real Ferrari is if it uses taillights from a Mercury Capri.

Knut Rider

This poor Mustang appears to be the ill-conceived bastard child of a late-gen Fox and 1970 era Mustangs, with a smidge of the current, pre-facelift model thrown in perhaps. Also - I don't believe it has headlights. But who needs those, right?

Jaguar V-Type

I'm not sure yet whether V-Type standards for Volkswagen or Vagina. I hope someone rammed it with that cart.

Van Butch(ered)

Ever wonder what would happen is a Ford Taurus and a F100 panel van mated?

978.5 Chevy (that's half of 1957 - get it?!?)

This car might have actually looked kinda cool if it didn't:

A.) Look like a clown car.

B.) Have a body that consists solely of bondo, rust and electrical tape.

fully molded custom wide body modified to the max!

I love ebay. Every once and a while you'll come across a gem like this, and you always wonder "who in God's name think this looks nice", and then you read the ad. I've included snippets below. A couple area of note are the the awesome new rear window, overspray of the "custom blue primer" on the taillights and whatever is seen behind the rear bumper (it's not a muffler - it doesn't have one), and the louvered gauge cluster.
