Probably just for lack of skills to make something decent in a small package.

Although the european devision of GM does make decent cars (Vauxhall and Opel (same cars diff badge))
They are pretty boring in general but not bad.

good point XD.

And I for one, while not a lover of all Holdens, cannot look past a HSV GTS, they look pretty spectacular. For Vauxhall I'm pretty sure thats the VXR isn't it?

I agree with Weasel on everything except

IMO the new ones look better than the old ones; the new ones aren't great but they're not ugly.

I actually hate the bugatti veyron, its just a hideous shell and wouldnt give one a second glance if some poser went by in it, i could go on lets see, any new ferrari, the new lambo's(anything after the diablo), pretty much any porsche i just seem to hate supercars in general

even if i won the lottery you would not find me in a supercar, closest thing id buy is a VXR8 and that would be my runabout while the mk2 escorts are getting built/repaired/made faster :D

So you're saying that if you had $100000000000000 you wouldn't buy a Veyron, Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche? Instead you'd get an VXR8 and a few Escorts? Would you like me to consult you to a psychiatrist? :lol:

IMO, if I had a even the slightest chance of getting my hands on a Ferrari 430 or a Gallardo, even a Ferrari 360, I would go for it. And yet even if you had the oppurtunity, you wouldn't get one?

WTF

Anyway, back on topic, I reckon the 1 and 5 series BMWs are shockers, as well as the M-B CLC. And the new SL doesn't look nearly as good as the old one!? Why?

Maybe he'll have a race team of escorts... that would be cool having some hardcore performance cars. Probably lap faster than a veryon in race conditions, and they can be enjoyed on the track rather than being afraid of smashing it.

Minis look bad, and it appears that they forced it from a 2 seater to a 4 seater...another thing that bothers me is that it looks like a cube...not a car. :shock:

You should sit inside one, it's roomier than you think.

Although I can't really say that I'm a fan either. I like small cars, but not micro cars with four-wheel drum brakes and one layer of tin between you and passing traffic :lol:

I've sat in one once...the old one from the 80's i think(The one that Mr. Bean drives).It is pretty tightly packed.I would still consider it as a 2 seater better.

The Ssangyong Rodius HAS to be the ugliest car ever made.

Actually...
Google:
:arrow: Lightning GT (It's also fast... does 250km/h... probably more with different gearing and a gearbox as it has 4x 120kw electric motors, and they're more responsive than Combustion engines)
:arrow: Audi R Zero (Futuristic thing... also has 1001 hp or something like that)
:arrow: Tesla Roadster (Electric Lotus pretty much)
are some of my favs...

but there's the
Venturi Fétish
if you're into that sort of thing.

However... if they pull out cars like this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keio_University_Eliica
gives electric cars a bad name.

im saying if i had $100000000000000 id buy a few real cars, im not saying the vayrons a crap car im saying as an engineering feat its impressive but come on a stupid amount of radioators to cool 2 v8s essentially,if you have x amount of millions you could make a lada do 260mph

but if i truly had $100000000000000 id buy about 3 mk2 escort(1 original and 2 animals) a fiesta si like my old one the VX for popping down the shops and probably my coupe with a Z20let fitted........remember real cars are built not bought :D
