Is it just me or is the Nisson Cube really the ugliest car on the road?

LOVED the gremlin!!!

Ya the box cars are all ugly as sin. But I dislike the trucks that will never see firt even more! Why buy a pos blazer than put 5K worth of rims and tires on it!?! That's a fishin truck! what are you thinking kid!
 
Sharon Citroen's are cool what about the Renault Dauphine? I think the little things like the Cube, Soul, and Scion are pretty neat (if you live in the city) but then again I drive a 70 VW Beetle
 
It's funny, but I think context is everything. Put it in Japan, and the Cube is cute. Put it on an American freeway, though, and it just looks... stupid. Out of place. And, of course, ugly.
 
I guy I know had a white one. He painted two black thick stripes on the roof, and had a bumper sticker that said "You Have Just Been Pasted By A Toaster!" But to each their own. I've seen a lot uglier, at least to my eye.
 
That's not bad.

I had a old red caprice classic with the paint cancer, dented fenders 2 white doors and 1 green.

That was ugly. But ran great with a rebuilt 283.
 
Cube

Sorry Guys, I love my cube. I spend time in Oregon, Arizona and Calif. Lots of driving on the freeways, 34,000 miles in 2 years. 33 miles per gal and two tickets so far, 80 plus mph Love my cube, You should see how I carry my lathe.
 
I used to have not to long ago a 2007 f-150 and a really nice jeep Wrangler. Then everything went to (%## and I now drive a 2001 f-150 with 140,000 and my little Suzuki swift with 250,000. So I guess I would drive anything and would LOVe to drive the cube.:biggrin:
 
They remind me of coffins ... especially when I see one of them on the freeway next to an 18 wheeler knowing that all the truck has to do is change lanes and it is all over. :eek:

When everyone drives smaller vehicles, then and only then will I consider owning one. I just like the idea of being at least as big as most others out there so I stand some chance in survival
 
Sharon,

Here's the Citroen I drove in high school... Mehari - a huge 2 cylinder engine... great on the beach, though!
 
Yep - that's ugly.

Sad part is, it is intentionally ugly. At least the design of the Aztek was an experiment that failed.

The Cube? U.O.P. (Ugly On Purpose)

I think the cube is ugly but it looks better and sure safer than a smart car! I pass those in my semi and they darn near blow off the road like a dead leaf.

I drive a Smarty and who says I would be driving slow enough for you to pass me in the first place? :biggrin:

I had a Dodge van that blew around the road a lot more than my little car.

As for ugly. I think the Dodge Caliber is pretty bad.

Each to their own.
Happy motoring.
Pete
 
I had a 1961 Renault Dauphine after high school. Loved it! town and country horn and 40+ mpg. But, my 1968 SAAB 3 cyl, 4 speed on the column was one of the best cars ever built. Only 7 moving parts in the engine. 1 qt outboard oil to 8 gal of gas. Had a lever to put it in free wheel so you would coast letting off the gas. Stable in a cross wind, etc. EPA stopped production because of emissions.
 
The Cube is definitely ugly, but I think the Nissan Juke is worse... WTH????

My first car was a 1957 BMW Isetta like this one only light blue. It had a 300cc single cylinder motor cycle engine. It had 4 wheels, although it doesn't look like it in the picture. I bought it for $40 and sold it for $90. Some of them are selling for $30,000+ today.

I owned a Yugo and it was the most fun little car I ever had. Great mileage and quick as a sport car. I heard they were going to make a 4 door and call it a wego
 
This was my first one...A Nash Metropolitan, except it was yellow and white.
