Can anyone beat this for ugliness? There are a few elements that actually work, but overall it looks like the semi-retarded cousin to the GLK that dropped out of high school to focus on his career DJ'ing junior proms and bagging groceries down at the Piggly Wiggly, all the while practicing posing sulkily in slightly out of date rapper drag.




More pics of this one:

And the exposed glass edge at the top of the windscreen reminds me of, hmmm, a guillotine? I am also thinking the A-pillars are no longer much structural in the event of a crash.

Shoot it and put it out of its misery:



And obviously targeted at the 18 - 24 year old that has a spare $80k burning a hole in his or her pocket.

Looks too JC Whitney-ish.

At least RENNtech was trying to make this one functional as a rally car and did some actual engineering on the mechanicals, but I can't say I like the looks, nor can I get over the rear wing:

This is nowhere near as ugly as some of the others, but they were tryin':

Here is the concept sketch for the first pic above, and I kinda like it. It just did NOT translate well from sketch to production.

I saw that last night! (The article, not the car.)

If 8 cylinders is good, 12 has to be better!

Besides, I've always had a soft spot for V-12s, ever since my old Jaguar days!

Hell, I barely have 100 miles on my new GLK and I'm already lusting for an upgrade!
