As the writer is only about 2/3 right,  I'm afraid we'll have to add Damian to the 50 stupidest writers list

well I could agree with some, but I found some on the list that I personally liked and would not mind having one, I guess beauty is in the eyes of the beholder just have no idea how they come up with that list, maybe a drunken office party each person got to name what they thought was the ugliest car and in order not to offend anyone everybodies idea was used

This writer does not have a clue as to what is ugly. He is right on some but how does bad fuel economy make a car ugly.

The Hummer in the picture isn't even a H2. It's a H3 which I don't like but I like
the H2. And where's that ugly Smart Car? Put it there and take out the ElCamino.

Ya, I'd love to see the writer walk up to every NBA star and tell him his Escalade is ugly, the guy is probably 5'2".

Before even lopoking at the list, if the Pontiac Aztec is not near the top (or bottom, depending on which direction is ugliest) then I am going to count it all as bogus.

And the 49 Stude is GORGEOUS Carl! Throw in a 427 and drivetrain to match and away we go, no need to replace the top even!

OK not even worth looking at that list - crummy format does not allow easy looking, Aztec not spotted, and the El Camiino is on his list!!!

However I did spot one truly ugly car I haven't seen yet (and hope not to):

Don't know what it is and don't care ...

The good old K car was a great idea but to me it's right up near the top of the list when it comes to UGLY.

I have a steak in my colon that is older than the writer (Damian Joseph)biggrin
He has only graduated from journalism school in 2007. He doesn't even write for Business Week anymore, and doesn't even regularly write about cars.
