i'm sorry, but my least favorite car in the whole entire world is without a shadow of doubt: Chevrolet Cavalier. Or maybe it's the Pontiac Sunfire. Well, whichever one it is, I hate them both with the white-hot passion of a thousand 4EAT's. I know nothing about their drivetrains, I know nothing about their history, all I know is that they are most certianly the ugliest two cars I have ever seen, and I hope to god that someone quickly passes a law prohibiting the aftermarket "tuning" of such cars.

Welcome to Pittsburgh Medical Center, Adam. Dr. Green1995SVX will be performing your groin surgery this morning. Any questions before he gets started?

Heh, I also thought about doing that with my 91 topaz when i had it. heh

Looks like someone already beat you to it a couple weeks after I got my SVX I was driving in downtown Puyallup and saw an 89 tempo with a wing. I was laughing for the next 2 or three minutes. lol

Sunfire's are hurting in the looks dept., but my wife's previous '92 Cavalier was virtually trouble-free, except for the occaisional ABS sensor, which cost about $40 to replace. the Cavalier is no supermodel, but its far from the ugliest car ever. Mike, go easy on him......

At one point I was thinking of a triple exhaust for the Justy.

For the size of the exhaust needed I could probably make one out of McDonald's straws

Because if you don't think that the Pontiac Aztec is the worst looking car ever built you've not seen one!!!

Edit:.......now is it a car or an suv? ..... I don't care. It's just plain ugly. The way those big clunky shoes look on womens feet ugly.

My favorite was still the "Blown" Pacer seen on the streets of Stowe Vermont while some of us were there during the VT 2000 Fall Foliage Tour.

My previous take was this: The marketing team busts into the design area and says, "guys, we gotta have that Aztek design and we've got to have it NOW!" "But it's not finished," the design leader says. He continues, "We've still got to sand these hideous angles off the model, and streamline it before it's ready." "We don't have time," says the marketing person, "Give us what you've got, and leave it up to us to sell the brass on the idea." THAT'S the only way I can see for the Aztek to have ever made it to market.

This is my 86 Cavalier Z Hathback with my svx. It is completely stock, fully restored, and not that bad looking in a rugged sort of way.

There are some good looking newer cavs. Give me a sec go dig up a pic of 2.

That NEW cavalier has to be the most hideous one yet. good GOD... .. the contorted melted face, and hte GIGANTIC chevy symbol in the back. BLECH.

I think the newer ones look alright (95-99ish), but I just despise their performance.

that's kinda what i thought happened to the C5 Corvette - they seemed to quit working on the design when they got to the rear end.
