I don't love it, but not sure how it ranks as one of the ugliest cars. Image

Because it's hideous? Haha

I love boxy shaped cars (and the wedge design of the era), but this thing was hideous even for the time.

And I thought the inside was bad, the exterior is worse lol

Inside is phantastic, exterior ruins it

Zoom in behind the wheel, on the top row is SLOW FAST HORN. It just seems so tacky to have to find that button every time you wanna honk at some jackass.
