option00002 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Yes, the X-90 is yet another heinous toilet brought to us by the man-goblin Suzuki engineers who should stick to their bikes and ATV's. I am glad y'all appreciated the emoticon page. Now if only we could convice the admins. to redo them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nc211 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Anything from Pontiac in general typically makes me think "good lord, were they drunk when they designed that thing?" Although, that new MB S class doesn't appeal to me at all. Looks like a sloth with shoulder pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smooth1 Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 Talking about the MB S class, the new BMW 3 series and the Z. I'm sorry, but the previous generation 3 series is way nicer looking than the new ones!!!!! I wouldn't say they are fugly, but,,,,,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
option00002 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 The S class does not bother me, but the R class is another story... In regard to the 'Bangle' motivated BMW line let me just say not all BMW fans (mind you no one gives a flying f*** about our traditionalist group) approve of the latest from the make: UpcomingSUV and GrossHartage6er Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the X-90 is one of those cars that I think the engineers found all these left over parts in the warehouse and decided what the heck, even if they only sell a few of em, atleast the warehouse will look cleaner.

smooth1 Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Also, when I first saw the Nissan Murano, I thought Hmmmm, maybe. But as time has gone by, and I keep seeing them, and I have seen them from every angle now, I have come to the conclusion that No, it's ugly.

Rya Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Also, when I first saw the Nissan Murano My in-laws have a new Murano & it's growing on me. The grill is kinda funny, but the rest of the vehicle is nice. The interior is classy, the push button start & the whole doors-unlock-when-you-get-close-thing is cool. It does sort of get wider as you look from the front to the back (standing in front). Like it has hips - not a good thing for a girl on a diet.

RX in NC Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Step up from the Murano to the Infiniti FX45 (same platform, far better engine and drivetrain) and you have what is probably the best combo package of small SUV and sports car out there today. Some would say no, that would be the Porsche Cayenne, but in the long run I believe that the Cayenne will prove to be far too expensive in the cost-of-ownership category and possibly a big loser in the maintain-resale-value category as well.... I took my wife out to test-drive an FX last year. She recognized (but certainly doesn't need) the performance but she finds the exterior appearance far too radical for her tastes. So I'm stuck with maintaining another mediocre RX. But I do acknowledge that her RX330 is a better vehicle that her albatross RX300 was. Glad to be rid of that pig for sure....

The Cayenne was my first choice when I decided I needed a new vehicle, my hubby just rolled his eyes at me. The FX is way too agressive for me. It looks like it's been deflated.

FYI, I used to sell Nissan's and used to think that the FX and Murano were on the same frame, but according to Nissan, the Murano, Altima, and Maxima are on similar frames. The FX frame is based on the Skyline, 350Z, G35. Which kinda makes sense, the Murano is FWD with CVT tranny, the FX is RWD with a 5-spd auto., and mufflers even sound like the 350Z and G35. When the Murano first came out lots of people were put off by the looks. They said it looked to round and bulbous, but the ones that did like it, said it reminded them of the RX. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smooth1 Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 The eclipse just looks stupid. I don't know, the Murano and the FX looks to much like a fat stationwagon with a Hyundai Tiberon body kit and tires that are too big. I think the Mazda CX-7 kinda falls in that catagory also, but it looks more "Aerodynamic." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flop170 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 alright smooth1 requested the addition of the ford tempo to the fugliest list! haha..... it's horrible.... it had rubber hubcaps...lol.... rubber!!! lol.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smooth1 Posted August 26, 2007 Author Share Posted August 26, 2007 Maybe we should work on assembling the top ten ugly list. I nominate the 2007 Subaru Tribeca: This thing is even worse up close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cory Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 oo, what about the Ford Taurus? Not only was it ugly, it had the worst performance of any car I've ever driven (including old caravans). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
