10 Most Repugnant Automotive Monstrosities of the Decade

From Brian Sy, Featured Contributor
Posted on August 22, 2008

This compilation might seem a little premature, considering the decade isn't even over until the passing of 2009 (or 2010, if you wanna get technical). But really, just about every car of the millennium's early years has already been shown to the public, and quite frankly, there are enough eyesores to fill a Top 40.

Still, reaching true visual repugnance is an achievement deserving of recognition. So after months of objective scientific analysis, we believe we've identified the ten late-model cars most deserving of a live burial.

From oldest to youngest, they are:

2000 Toyota Echo

2000 Chevrolet Impala

2001 Pontiac Aztek

2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser

2002 Chevrolet Avalanche

2004 Kia Amanti

2003 Porsche Cayenne

2005 Toyota Avalon

2006 Honda Ridgeline

2007 Jeep Compass

Honda Ridgeline huh? It got truck of the year that year, hmm. No Saturns made the list? They're supposed to be ugly I thought.
