Nope, I still think the Prius is the ugliest new vehicle available right now. If it wasn't a hybrid it would have been dropped by now.

Nissan wins again!

If this doesn't make you barf a little in your mouth, nothing will:

The Cube is far, far worse than that minivan.

The Cube looks the the end result of some bizarre Photoshop filter. The minivan looks like a whale.

I'm sorry everyone...

This is the ugliest thing to sit on a dealer lot since the Pontiac Aztec.

All the shapes so far on this thread have at least been pretty clean. Thinking some more about it I believe that visual interest should come from the basic structure of an item, not from stuff tacked on afterwards. I'm hardly the first to observe this, but I buy in. The ugliest cars, to me, run afoul of this principal.

Additionally, shapes adopted for practicality reasons get a pass, whereas form over function always ranks lower. The Cube definitely does badly there.

I hate that the cube is not even symetrical. The rear quarters are different on the left and right. Also, the rear door is fugly.

I also dislike the front end of the 07-current CR-V. What's up with the grille?

Current Body Style Mitsubishi Eclipse. Need I say more?
