Obviously, beauty as well as ugliness for that matter, are in the eyes of the beholder. Get yourself into this line-up, it's worth it within reason. It features my ugliest car I have ever seen (remember the Stavic !), but also they are having a lash at the C-Class. I disagree with them regarding the rear view which isn't too bad. The front okay as well, but but get a load of the sideview - I reckon the front suspension has collapsed. A bit like a 6.9 when down on its haunches. Regards Styria

Indeed Styria, beauty is an individual thing but proportion is not:

http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/emat6680fa06/hobgood/kate_files/golden ratio/gr arch.html
However, a list from an anonymous writer on an msn site is no arbiter of good taste, correct proportion or sensibility.
It makes for a giggle but that's about as much enthusiasm as I can muster for yet another list ....
There is no doubt the Stavic got it wrong but I find the lines of the Panamera are resolved to immense satisfaction.
Regards,
Brian

Hum,

I think some (so called) motoring journalists have nothing better to do, or maybe things are quiet on the news front. :eek:

They sure are some 'ugly ducklings', to be see in the choice of 50 cars.

Front grille design of the new Jeep in my opinion an eye sore!
:eek:

Chrysler PT Cruiser what were GM thinking there?

Family Friend had a PT Cruiser it was a maroon colour did not have the car for long.

I don't think it really matters in the common sense context of debate. The guy is no more wrong, nor more right, than what I or anyone else would submit in his place. Certainly, there is plenty of scope for agreement or otherwise, with his opinions. Just side tracking a bit - the website you have referred are probably just a bit above my level of intelligence and comprehension - however, I wonder what form Da Vinci would have come up with had he been tasked with the design of any of those cars. Regards Styria
