Thats weird, I'm a '79 myself and everyone older than me always refers to my generation as Gen X. I have a brand new $35k truck too, so I guess I'm an exception

Gen Y is 82-92 (the tech generation). These are the people the grew up with the Internet. I was born in 1978 and am definitely a Gen Xer. My new car is in my sig.

By the way...the Scion and Element are fugly. Real Gen Y people might actually think they're cool. Or maybe just some modern hippies or something....not someone who actually has autmotive taste.

Ick, at least Aztek designers know where they can find a job..........

And at least those body cladding makers have found Honda to supplement the loss of Pontiac.......

I'd rather be caught in an Aztek then either of those two things. It's almost funny to see the magazines who bashed Aztek styling try and rationalize why the styling of these two shouldn't be considered too bad

Can I just add that no matter how many more people vote 'Uglier than Aztek, the 100% won't get any higher.

I thought it would be near impossible to dethrone Aztek from the modern day "Ugliest vehicle ever"... but it seems others sure are trying hard... and may have succeeded!

I think us 78-82 people are just stuck in the middle, too young for gen X and too old for gen y

Anyway, the only think i like about the honda is the pillarless doors. One think i found funny, I was reading car & driver's review of the element and they said that honda designed the car for 20-25 yrs males with no jobs. I know some college kids have there parents buy them cars, and it will probably sell, cause it has the nifty H badge on there (like the drones that buy civics and accords without evenlooking at other cars).

I wonder what how the asstek would sell if it had a Honda badge instead of pontiac, i bet you'll see a lot more of them.

Same with Toyotas, they will probably sell just on name alone

Thumbs down

The Honda one looks ****ing horrible and boxy; I'd take a more stylish Pontiac Vibe (or even the blander Matrix) over than if I wanted something with cargo room.

So they can drive it to the unemployment office? I guess that would be like Head & Shoulders creating shampoo for the hairless individual.
