Am I losing my sanity? Can the Aztek actually look good?

As some of you may know, I'm almost as big of a Pontiac fanatic as I am a Subaru fanatic. I have also made it clear on several occations that the Aztek is nothing more than a slap in the face to everything with an arrowhead. Now, in what I would assume is a last ditch attempt to generate some excitement with the vehicle, has gone and built one that actually...looks pretty good, and can perform, too.

For a statement like that I think we need to come up to Maine and "rescue" your Subarus. I call dibs on the XT6

That looks interesting... I definitly wouldn't have thought that it was an Aztec... But still my answer is "No"... I don't think that there is enough beer in the world that could make me actually think that that car looks alright...

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

Agreed. It's still a minivan - and a really ugly minivan at that.

If Subaru lovers can claim that the XT is anything but hideous, then why can't Pontiac lovers do the same for the Aztec? Besides it's more useful to begin with.

The version in question here is definetly cool, though I don't see how it could be justified, even just for fun. The Vibe is already a very successful vehicle fulfulling the same role the production version of this craziness would.

Sounds like my kinda place. Besides, the road kill would feed more people (Moose, as opposed to Possum ).
