Wow.....! From best looking to ugly? Not fair!

It's a joke:2:
There were maybe 2 to 3 definates but the and the MO was not one of them.
I would hate to see what their top 10 Best looking cars were? Maybe the Citroen from the 70's??

Wow - I don't think I'd put any of those cars in the top 10.

YEah to be honest, there aren't that many cars I would consider "ugly."

Strange looking cars might be the smart car, or the Lincoln MKX, but thats all I can think of off the top of my head. The "retro" dash of modern Lincolns are also pretty ugly with those square guages. I don't care much for the upcoming Pontiac G8 "sport truck" either - its the El Camino all over again and I always thought that was a hideous vehicle.

At the risk of angering some of the insecure 2009 owners, I would have to agree with their assessment of the front-end. But then again, I was never thrilled with the front-end on the earlier MOs.

It has always been my opinion that Nissan did a 9/10ths job on the exterior of the first-gen MO. Moving from it's sensuous rear-end forward, everything flowed smoothly and gracefully until you reached the front grille and you just had to stand there scratching your head wondering what the hell the designers were thinking. :confused: Apparently they are still missing the mark.

Oddly enough... I found that it was the rear end of the 09 redesign that I really didn't like. The front end isn't great, but it's not that bad. I like it better than the 1st-gen. But the backside and the flat fender flares really turned me off.

the only one on the list I really think is ugly is the Jeep Compass. My god, how I hate that thing. It looks like the result of a drunken encounter between a Dodge Neon and 1st-gen Jeep Liberty.

Thats a joke the 09 murano is not ugly but it does not look as good as the 1g Muranos for sure i love the way the 1g Murano looks. The Acura TL is also a not bad looking car no clue why its on that list. Also the Murano has second least votes as out of thoes 10 as the ugliest

When it comes to cars, the old saying holds true... beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just ask anyone who bought a faux wood-sided Chrysler K-car station wagon in the 80s. :2:

As Joe said

but tastes change...

then there are the classics....

the new Murano is not one of them...

the old one was....


anyway, the list is simply stupid. The author was under pressure to create something and he did....pity it is so stupid.....

I like the older style, hence, purchasing one for my fiancee and myself. I don't care for the re-design too much, but it's growing on me and I would definitely buy another one. My neighbor just bought an 09 SL Black. Looks good!

IMHO, getting rid of the god-awgul grill and the other exterior, tacky chrome would do wonders to improving the looks of this car.
