This is definitely one of the worst of all time, but I think I saw someone say that they kinda liked it on here.
The Juke, meh, I'd drive one. I like that it is different looking.

Don't forget the ever fun Ls6 in an Aztek option that was thrown around recently
I think you could make the aurgument that there are cars that left completly stock would be universally hated by the typical GRM person.
Once you start modifying all you are really buying is a shape and as most of our members have proven not even a layout/engine family/or anything. We treat cars like legos so we love pretty much everything.
Small junky cars are cheap to buy and can be made fast with lots of mods.
Midsize cars are great space and super cheap to maintain because the normal people buy them up in droves because Magazines (not this one) tell them too. Most of them can provide wonderful upgrade parts to our modified cars
Large cars and luxury cars we love because of depriciation and ability to have nice things for our efforts. We like to tow with them and use them for their super duper technology donor motors.
"Sports cars" are all awesome even the bad ones because.. Well sports car
Trucks we love because who doesn't love towing, hauling, and burnouts.. don't forget the burnouts.
Vans are the bomb. We sleep in those, tow with them, haul our parts and families around and love all of them.
SUV's are great because they are like 5 door hatchbacks that can tow stuff around and get all muddy and save our "sports cars" from the winter.
SUV's are probably the only stretch as some of us just don't get what they are for. Oh and that nissan abomination is just bad but who doesn't look at it and go.. How sweet would that be droped like 10" with boost and A6's?
For any car you can name there's always at least one person who liked it. I've never heard of an auto manufacturer introducing a new model and then selling zero units.

The Volt is pretty close, though.

...but the Juke R is like a GRM wetdream, isn't it???
I'd absolutely own one if I were wealthy. 
BTW--what did that car model chick do wrong to have to stand next to a Tempo on Pep Boyz chrome wheels???

To my eye they have *no* redeeming features at all. ...so the last time I made that comment, there were a bunch of pundits who chimed in with stuff like "but wait, a 5-speed V6 AWD Tempo would make a wicked rallycross rat!" Of *course*.
I think i may have been responsible for that...

smart car, Mitubishi i-MIEV, AMC/Renault Alliance, and Dodge Caliber all come to mind...
In reply to Javelin:
I am almost sure I've heard the Smart car and Caliber defended here. I certainly can't defend them, but someone did.

lots of love for smart cars here, and all Jim had to do was paint it a silly color.

Flunk out of cosmetology school. Eh, a job's a job, right?

I've counted about ten existing around town, different colors and all. Only one looks beat up, the rest seem to be in good shape and run fine. Spooky.
In reply to DoctorBlade:
Thats because you really have to like a Aztek to keep one.

If I had to buy a small SUV and it wasn't going to be a Wrangler, it would be that one because convertible.

I would totally rock a smart car or an AMC Alliance.

I'm guessing the people that have one, keep them. Because there's no way in hell anyone's going to buy the damn things from them.
Nobody goes out shopping FOR an Aztec.
It's like used Tauruses. Nobody goes out LOOKING for one. They just... sortof happen.

Oh god, here I go defending a stupid car. But, I would buy a Taurus if I found one for $700 and I needed a car. But I wouldn't go out searching specifically for one. I guess I am basically restating what you were.

Scroll on down to the classifieds, and WTB. If you dare.

There's also a Tempo/Topaz forum as well. That place makes my head hurt.
I'm not entirely sure i call these people humans.

Just because they sell doesn't mean people LIKE them.

Didn't GRM auto-x one of these??

But they are they PERFECT highway cruiser. Good MPG (like, close to 30 at 65mph), ridiculously comfy, and all of the best features. Plus, lots of room for 16/17 year olds to... um... do stuff in
