It is indeed hideous, especially from the rear IMAO. Lexus has finally hatched their own Cimarron.

I am glad to see though, it does have a HUD ( http://www.autoblog.com/photos/first.../2016963/full/ ). It's goofy and looks clunky... but I'm glad to see it b/c it will put more pressure on GM to keep putting out vehicles with the HUD.

Ford's working on a HUD too, apparently...

In today's super paranoid, blame-somebody-else society, I can't see how that got out of the lab like that. There must be something else to it.

As to its ugliness, well, it just seems like the typical Toyota blandness, with an extra helping of what Toyota thinks comprises visual excitement. I wouldn't call it attractive, but I don't think it deserves to be called the ugliest car of 2010 either. And as has been well documented, people will buy Toyotas in spite of what they look like, so it likely won't make much of a difference.

 

Can you find something uglier?

 

i agree... i was beginning to wonder if the link was wrong or something... I dont really see "ugly" in that car. It more just seems kinda bland. I honestly have no idea how it could get so much hate and people that seem to think its the ugliest thing ever created. The prius is way uglier imo...

 

Is that a hybrid Lexus Corolla?

 

Yea the Cimarran was what I thought of first and then though how ruthless the media would be on Caddy if they had brought out something like this. Somehow Lexus will be praised for it and won't suffer any brand watering.

'Yota isn't known for their style so while this car looks like a toaster I don't think they have the ability to do much better.

 

Looks like the Fusion





Except the Fusion looks better

 

It looks like a suppository. It's probably just as fun too.

 

I'm gonna go out on a limb here as the only dissenter so far.

I like it, but I seriously doubt I would buy one. On my list of potential car purchases, It's at about #52.

I think it is built with one purpose in mind; luxury hybrid. It's for the Prius drivers out there who want a more luxurious and refined vehicle, simple as that.

But it does look like Toyota took a Prius and put Lexus cladding on it.

 

I want to see the 51 before it.

 

1. 2010 Mustang Shelby GT 500 (sorry Camaro, )
2. 2010 Camaro 2SS RS IOM/black stripes
3. Used Corvette Z06
4. 2010 Mustang GT Premium
5. 2009 Challenger SRT-8

Well there's the first five.

 

Personally? I don't think its terrible...at all, actually. Without a doubt the Fusion hybrid is more attractive, but I can't say I'd prefer a Prius to it.

With that said, I'd never even remotely consider buying one. People who drive cars like that mean there's more gas available for WOT power shifts for people like me
