I drive a Chevy StepVan, so I guess I'm no authority on "style"....anyway.
I always thought that the Datsun F10 was horrid. We had one as an ice racer and I recall that we cheered when one of the guys rolled it.
The old Toyota Corona (the one that looked like an electric shaver in the front) was no beauty either. Wish I could have found a front-end shot of it.

You beat me to it. I thought it was cute in some way also.
I must have a warped sense of cars because I don't find half of what is said here as ugly. Not all as pretty as others, but ugly is a really strong word.

Aeronca, like this one?....
Ouch, Steve! My eyes!
And I had forgotten that the Ami 6 had that funny slanted rear glass like the old English Fords (and American Mercurys). Dreadful!
Still, (and this is just my opinion) I'll take a small "ugly" car anyday in preference to the various "road-beasts" that are used as passenger vehicles on many American highways.

So will I.
Also - think about it - would road rage be such an issue if we had nothing but cars that looked like this and had names like "Ami".

I couldn't agree more. Wise comments there John. There would certainly be no road rage........we'd all be too busy laughing!

By far, the 1957 Mercury needs to be on the list.

I had a '57 Mercury. It was ugly indeed. Thats why I bought it, a black and whith 4 door that looked like Broderick Crawford should be at the wheel.
I can't tell one year Fiesta from another, although I thought they were sold in the US in '78, '79, and '80. I always thought that they were cuter than a Rabbit though. They were also the hot car in SCCA Showroom Stock Sedan racing for a time which gives them considerable style points in my book.
