Ugly, ugly, ugly ...

Bob; that is a very good question.

 

It does nothing for me. I also dislike the Chrysler 300 and the really low Dodge wagon that has small windows.....can't recall the model. I DO like the re-birth of the Challenger, much better than the styling of the Mustang re-do.

 

It looks imposing, muscular. It scars you looking at it in your rear view mirror. Great for those who needs a ego fix.

 

Big giant grilles are very popular with knuckle-draggers and the egotistical who are trying to show they are big men. Look at the trend with grille size/prominence since the early 90's.

at firts i liked the front look.... looking big and tuff ( i like big nosed cars like this )

buth then i got a look at the side view.... UGLY indeed

 

Ew.

That's all I have to say.

 

I'm with you FWD. Personally I think the front is ok looking, but those bulged out side fenders are nasty.

 

I think the enormous "mouth" is an appropriate image ... after all, they are gobbling up the taxpayers money fast and furious ... and asking for more.

 

Raise the hood a little bit more, lower the roof slightly, then add this grille cover:



Perfect fit.

 

I don't care for it, but I won't call it ugly.
I prefer the Mustang over the Challenger, but I grew up with a red '69 convertible, so I have a soft spot. In terms of performance, the Mustang is the leader of the new pony cars.

{If you looks at the fronts of many "muscle cars" these days, they actually look mean with headlights that look like they are squinting eyes.}

Designers use the term aggressive.
The furrowed brow/ hoodline and extending front bumper on the Mustang and 80's BMWs can be of use on the track. It's called a splitter and provides downforce to help the front wheels stick.

 

the responses tell more about the responder than they do about the car

there's a lot of insecurity here guys

cars are taster's choice, i may like or dislike the esthetics, i may overlook the esthetics if i'm in love with the vehicles utility and function

i don't judge others, or try guess the size and shape of their genitalia, by the car they drive

wow

 

Pot meet Kettle........

I sold performance parts for a living and raced cars/trucks for just as long and I'm a firm believer that stereotypes exist for a reason.

 

uh huh ... so now you're telling me that i like the taste of chicken, menthol cigarettes, and purple juice for a reason ... ?

 

If grape drank or red flavor kool-aid is your thing then go for it.

 

right on :thumb:

 

I'm not as bad as I let on. I just think I'm funny.

 

Thanks for posting those pictures guys, I just ate.
Clean-up on aisle 5!
