There are current cars that I don't care for but what if a fellow pt'er owns one? I sure would not want to offend anyone.
It's not the people - it's the cars. Hey, if you need a vehicle and something is a good deal, you get it.
It can be CUTE, an ugly car, if it is your own. :)
Well some people take that kind of thing personally so I am not going there, there are a few cars that are not my taste though.

Trust me, If you were going to rag on the Yellow Subarine/Belair station wagon or the Great Pumpkin/Pacer that I rode in/drove I'd be really proud that you happened to notice that I was smart enough to be in a car that was really functional.
CAR, DEATHTRAP AND COFFIN!:)
My car isn't a looker, and Im not afraid to say it! Eventually its gonna be all one color...and have all of its fenders...
Eventually lol ;)
The great thing about it is that it works, and works well too! It just isn't pretty :p
We have always called it the Honda Elephant, but thinks that it looks more hippopotamus-like in reality.Quote:

I'm ALWAYS the wierdo in any vehicle conversation. I obviously have very strange taste in cars. I rarely like the "popular" vehicles, and tend to own or want the "oddballs". At the moment, for example, I own three cars ... all of them are some shade of purple. One is VW Super Beetle and one is New Beetle. I almost bought a Karmann Ghia at a yard sale last weekend, but my DH vetoed that. :mad:
I think Elements are cute ... but I only like the ones where the fenders are the same color as the car, I don't like that gray plastic look. I also think the Scions and Xboxs are so cute.
I really, really want a Mini Cooper S.
As for what I think are ugly ... I have never seen the appeal in the Chevrolet Avalanche or the Cadillac Escalade. And I think Vibes and Aztecs are SO ugly. My friend is in the market for a 70's Buick Rivera Boat Tail. OMG, I am speechless ... those were SO ugly.
Pacers and Gremlins have got to win some prize for ugly cars, and of coure, there is the VW Thing. WHAT was that?? LOL
I love the Smart Cars - they are SOOO cute! And, apparently, quite durable. Heard of one guy who took his from Calgary to Guelph and back, and it ran great! Would love to have a red one and put black spots on it and some antenna! LOL Smart Ladybug!
When I see one coming, I don't know whether to get out of the way or stick out my leg and trip it! :D:p

It's a Smart Car and gets a bazillion miles per gallon.
Miles per hour or miles per gallon? I'd be scared to take that a bazillion miles per hour. lol
