Here's my entry:

Now, I have complete faith that you all will pull something ugly, perhaps even uglier from the annals overpriced, under-developed automotive history, but given the cost on this one, I find it hard to believe there's anything offering more ugly per dollar spent.

Somebody help me out here: on average, how many individual people (or committees) does exterior design have to go through?

Whatever the answer is, the fact remains that this design made it through?

That car is an argument in favor more committees. That certainly should have been stalled on someone's desk a bit longer.

Wait, I think I've discovered the problem (from the article): "Less so, given its voluptuous body, is that the Puma was designed by a plastic surgeon, according to the Los Angeles Times."

Resemblance?

That Puma is a conflict of ideology with its swoopy smooth lines of a go-fast, and then prop it up with mudder tires?

This car isn't super enough for me to consider it a supercar, but it's fugly.

There are a couple of Asian supercars I had in mind, but this is worse. The worst.

I think you win hands down.

In reply to 914Driver:
You sir are very very very wrong.

My nominee, not as ugly as the OP, but seriously ugly all the same. Gumpert Apollo.

Dang I was going to nominate the Gumpert but I would take a Gumpert not that other thing.

Another one. Marussia B2. Ferrari and McLAren make great looking Super cars to back up their F1 cars. Marussia have serious issues.

Lamboghini make some of the most beautiful cars ever. Miura, Countach, Gallardo, Murcielago, Urraco etc etc. But I always hated the Diablo, nothing going for it at all, just bland, derivative and ill proportioned.

I can't agree with on that. It isn't beautiful but I wouldn't say it is ugly and it is a lot better looking in person then in photos.

The Gumpert drives so good. And it's just a little ugly, at worst.

Both these cars would benefit from having a couple of feet taken out between the A pillar and front wheels.

Red Purse 612

McLaren Mercedes SLR

I not so humbly disagree with your disagreement, and in person it's even worse, it looks like a bad kit car.

Yes. OMG the 612 is ugly. Honestly though if someone handed me the keys to any of these cars I would be happy except the one in the OP. I would punch the person who handed me the keys in the face and then make them eat the keys.

Is it wrong to want something so ugly, so badly?
