Whatever happened to "beautiful" Italian car desig

[Pepe]

While being over in Germany we drove by several dealerships , among others this FIAT dealership when we saw this ugly looking piece of crap............I remember the days when Italian Car design was a cut above..........oh and by the way.........FIAT owns Ferrari :wink:

Glad you are back....The front (up to the end of the front door) does not look that bad, but then they went off the deep end. Christ thats ugly. What in the hell were they thinking?

:shock:

Jim,
glad to be back !!!

The picture really doesn't do its "ugliness" justice - the windows were so unproportional and as you mentioned the "rear" was just horrible.............there was another car that caught our eyes in DISBELIEVE.........I think it was a Renault but we didn't manage to snap a picture...........it made THIS 'feller' look like a Prowler !

The one to the left of the van(?) looks just as bad. If possible lay some nice pics on us.

Fiat has made some horribly ugly cars....

the Lada is a russian Fiat...

not to mention the french made Poozhow... its so ugly I can't even try to spell it..

Ah yes, the infamous Peugeot. They had an oil suspension I believe, that along with being so damn ugly killed them in the states. I really don't know if they are even produced anymore.

i has a 66 Peugeot.. it had a 4 speed on the tree... and a broken frame... it drove like an inch worm and was slime green with red vinyl seats....
it was the worse deal i ever got , and it was given to me..free !

just like rolling vomit... :vomit:

They had a model called the CV or something like that with slab sides. That was absolutely awful.
