The CEO who thought that that the Pontiac Aztec would sell should be fired.

He should be put in an insane asylum as well.

My 1997 Hyundai Elantra station wagon would carry a 4X8 sheet of plywood.

It cost about $13,000, and could carry 5 adults with all their luggage, plus it had a rooftop capacity of about 200 pounds provided you had the optional rail system.

This model was highly desired for use by sales reps who worked in downtown locations. Hyundai says "it's coming back next year".

The Pontiac Aztec outfitted similarly (and obviously a bigger vehicle) was priced at about $27,000.

For a long while these were the only two passenger type vehicles that could successfully carry a sheet of plywood and still leave room for a driver and passenger. I don't think GM is going to bring this one back.

LOL. A definite contender for "ugliest car, ever."
