What are you talking about, the Aztec doesn't get much sales!!! First of all it's not as ugly as you guys are making it to be, you must get some false sense of security clownin on a car that isn't an import compact car. Those cars get a lot of sales, i should know i work at a Pontiac dealership in detail. If your gonna rag on a car, talk about that ugly ass Suzuki Aerio.

How about the new Honda Element. I dont see that thing going to far. If it was made by pontiac and I had the choice between it and the Aztek. I would have to go with the Aztek. Since it is made by Honda I would choose the element if I had to make a choice. Man it is ugly.

I dont understand how you people can say that this car or that car wont go very far. If they Aztek is such an ugly car, and doesnt sell very well, why is it still in production? It's been in production for four years. You'd think that if a car was doing that badly, they would pull the plug. I work at the same Pontiac dealership as Z28Josh, and Must agree that these cars are not at all bad. They have decent engines, decent pricing, and if maintained, can last for quite a while. The only reason I think people are saying it's ugly is because it's not what they consider to be "cool" looking.

Here is an article I found on forbes.com Out of 17.4 million vehicles sold in 2000 only 11,201 were azteks. Gm thought they would sell 70,000 a year.

I know the statistics are kinda old but it is all I could find.

I definatly think that the ugliest piece of shit is the crx. The 1990's mustangs were pretty rank too. Worse looking supercar>> the ENZO

Yep, the Enzo only has two good angles: The engine bay and the driver's seat. Honestly, I don't see how Ferrari could've signed off on such a convoluted, unbalanced, inelegant, and downright WEIRD looking car.

Shades of the Mythos concept from the early 90's.

I would have to disagree. I think the Ferrari Enzo is bad as hell. How could you think any ferrari is ugly. The name just signifies that it is a bad automobile. Granted I like the lines of the Marenello a little better, but the Enzo is still very nice.

How can I think any Ferrari is ugly? Simple.

1975 Ferrari Dino 308GT/4. The butt-ugly stumpy wedge designed by Bertone. The ONLY Ferrari designed by Bertone.

And I'm diehard Tifosi.

Sorry, but even the Cavaillano Rampante doesn't guarantee a pretty car each and every time.

The Enzo just doesn't have the elegant form of a true Ferrari. The lines don't flow and the nose is far too long for such a short wheelbase and short tail. It's just a styling mess. I mean, honestly, it's something I would've expected from Zonda or Alfa Romeo. Not Pininfarina.

The fact that you could say how could you think any ferrari is ugly, proves that they could make any piece of crap with the ferrari nametag and you would probably still like it.

Ferrari is a better company than that! I do not believe they would make a piece of crap. Now I agree that back in the 80's they built some cars that were not to the highest standards, but that is just not the case anymore. That my friend is why we cannot afford them.

I rest my case. There are indeed ugly Ferraris.
