First of all, the Aztek was a hideous show car. I have no idea who greenlighted the production version - they should be shot. Rarely do production versions look better than the concept. Also - who thought the Pontiac spear logo would make a good rim pattern? And even more amazing is that this car is still for sale, being the but of many jokes. Is it actually selling well? I wish the Aztek would make like the Aztecs and disappear already.
Like the Oldsmobile Bravada, this car suffers from a dual personality. Setting aside it's blatant fugliness, who would look at this car and see an SUV and not a minivan? It's not very hard to see this "SUV's" minivan routes. Like I made reference to with the Bravada, it's like a man that went in for a sex change operation, but still looks very much a man. And can pitch a tent at that.

Ahh GM. I was so impressed when they wooed and brushed the dust off of Lutz. But frankly, I have yet to see anything impressive from him.
I really would rather drive a 25 year old Buick than THIS monstrosity! What in God's Name were the kids smokin' at GM's DesignCenter??? Or did they fish this out of wastebasket drawings peeled from the bottom of the SBARRO Dumpster???
Kudos to YOU, Bean, for NOT leaving out "The Reigning King Of All That Is AutoFugly"!!!
One commentator for a national publication stated that the Aztek looked like it was created by a 7th grade Industrial Arts class using foam core board and plexiglass on a Daewoo chassis, and then tacking on as many camping and stereo accessories as J.C. Whitney's could provide!
I somewhat disagree. The 7th grade Industrial Arts class would come up with SOMETHING WAY COOLER than THAT!!!
