Am I the only one that thinks 99% of cars today are very ugly?

They are just like all the houses in the new developments, all the same and boring. How did they go from beautiful cars with style and character to the boring plastic square ugly colored cars of today?

Here is a beautiful old car with character and class. Anyone else agree?

    No. Since most of the car makers can't GIVE away new cars these days I'm thinking that about 99% of the populace thinks 99% of all new cars look like bloated jellybeans that you couldn't pick out of a line-up.

    No style anymore....

    I would say it depends on your taste. I love new cars and there are some classic cars that I do admire

    If you look at this Ford Mustang '79:

    and the Ford Mustang '09:

    I would think anybody would pick new over old in this situation. A paint job makes any vehicle look better.

    It's like people. Most are average looking. There are a few beautiful ones. Some are butt ugly. The sharing of body styles across brands and mass production makes for some very un-original looks.

    I like the looks of the 1959 Cadillac. I guess rarity increases beauty.

    I can't believe that you think today's cars like the Pontiac Aztec or Honda Element are ugly?

    Ok, so the pic was of an Oldsmobile but you get the picture.

    99% is an exaggeration, but unfortunately ugly cars is a tendency. But still there are good stuff like Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, Aston Martin, not a lot though
