Ssangyong Actyon

It may seem like I hate Ssangyong, since I rip apart all of their offerings. But it's just because they're so damn ugly, and when they aren't ugly something is seriously odd about them. The new Actyon is one of these. Overall, the car isn't that bad looking. But it has this weird hump in the hood that reminds me of a Bootlenose Dolphin.
The rear again isn't bad, but it seems like the greenhouse protrudes too far, almost as if it sticks out further than the rear bumper.


And lastly I include the concept car which inspired the production version, which for some reason does without all the things that make the production car fugly. Yet to make up for that, they go back in time to the early 80's to kidnap some poor girl from her senior prom to model for the car.

Looks like these were built from Daewoo "LeMans" and cast-off Chrysler PT Schmoozer parts. You're right, she IS from the 80s! At least she looks better than the vehicles! Gotta have SOMETHING to look at that won't give ya VERTIGO!!!
