Now, now finn: like an ugly baby you grow to love 'em. Azteks are probably the most bang for the buck in an AWD vehicle. They ARE weird, though:)

I thought having Walter own one in Breaking Bad was inspired. Every decision the man ever makes is a wrong one.
 
I liked the looks of the II but, it was a real downer after the 1st gen. Seems like Ford was trying to pull another T'bird migration (no pun intended) and really blew it big time.
 
The new Gen I Prius, and that little tiny Honda hybrid with the fender skirts, are finalists for the ugly prize, IMHO... And my '83 Seville.

I have always said that if General Motors and Citroen built a car jointly, you'd get a Pontiac Aztek. It looks like such a car designed by committee. Add to that the redoubtably ugly Nissan Puke, the Toyota Prius, every SUV crossover with the curved back side and rear windows you can't see out of. The Infiniti FX 30 was better looking than the Nissan Murano or it's baby brother the Rogue. The only good looking Nissan SUV was either the earlier Pathfinder or the first XTerra.

Oh good, GM can poison-pill Citroen like they did SAAB.
There go the quirky car manufacturers!

Quirky? You mean legendary? Aside from being one of the greatest rally teams in all of history...

...Citroen also invented hydroneumatic self-leveling suspension, debuted front wheel drive in a mass produced vehicle, and was first to implement swiveling headlights.
 
But the tires on that car can't even reach the ground!

BTW, speaking of Rally I'm the chief of stage commanders at Rally New York - we just had an awesome event 10 days ago. All tarmac stages running through the community of Rock Hill NY.

That reminds me - I forgot to add "survived the Great Depression" to the list of Citroen's accomplishments.
And survived WWII.
They hid designs from the Germans to implement after the war.

I had a buddy with a DS21 when in high school - definitely a cool car.
 
Front wheel drive - was produced in 1938 in an Auburn production car - so not the first.

Uhh, no...Auburns were conventional RWD. You're thinking of the CORD, which WAS FWD-Their 1st one was in 1929, the L-29. Citroen came out w/the "Traction Avant", in 1934, & it ran til 1955, when the "Goddess" DS-19- came out. Citroen came out w/the 2CV, their Spartan economy car, in 1948, it ran til almost the 21st century. It had 2 cylinders, the 1st ones had a whopping 9HP, the latter ones had 29 (!), but they also got incredible mileage.
