About a year ago, I saw a PINTO in a grocery store parking lot in NH.

We could not believe that there was one of those things still running.

Or that someone would want o even own one.

Had a neighbor with a Gremlin back when, and later on another had an Aztek.

The rumor:
Aztek had two design teams, one for the front, one for the back.
Neither spoke to the other.
And nobody was actually designing an SUV, they were designing a compact sedan.
So, they inflated the proportions.
The result was a vehicle that had tiny wheels holding up what resembled a rolling fart.

AMC Gremlin.

What were they thinking?! Naming a car the “Gremlin” is like naming it the “Malfunction” or “Fail”.

I’m learning those lists are pretty useless and subjective. The pinto was not an ugly car and still isn’t. The Pacer was seen as downright futuristic, and was only held back by not getting the rotary engine.

The matador, yeah. :)

I owned a purple AMC Gremlin. It was a good little car. I liked it.

I’m not hating on the Tatra or the Astin Martin... Without the enlongated rear window, the Pinto looks like just about any other ‘70’s economy car.

But the S-Cargo? Really? It drives like a cooked snail?

They think a Pinto is uglier than a Citroen?

Weird.

I will jst assume the AMC Gremlin is there, and yes, I HATED IT.

I wanted a 1967 Mustang and saved up $2000 to get one. My father made me buy a lightly used Gremlin. I was teased mercilessly. A year later my my sister totalled her VW and I sold the despised Gremlin to her for what I paid a year earlier and bought a 1968 Ford Mustang GT/CS. That was hot rodded out with radical cam and double pumper Holley.

I loved that car. 40 years later, it is still my favorite car Iever owned.

I made the mistake of checking them out. All has-beens, of no interest anymore. Why not name CURRENT uglies? Like the front end of most Lexuses? Uglier than homemade soap!
