Not sure about you US folks, but up here, to option out a Yaris to a Juke level, you're within a thousand spitting distance.

And Toyota is not particularly generous with Manufacturer's rebates lately (which is peculiar, because they still have boat-loads of Yarii sitting in port.)

the Japanese xB aka bB has neon blue rings around the speakers that light up and dim out. I thought that cool, not really distracting to me.

The crazy thing about the HHR is that GM hired the guy who designed Chrysler's PT Cruiser to design the HHR in a lame attempt to basically copy a piece of that success - 5 years too late. Pathetic.

I had an ugly 1987 Toyo pickup once. I remember the day my 5-year-old son pulled off a huge piece of fender from the truck bed and I said, "Put that back!". It was pretty ugly. Of course that was back when the beds rotted out of every single one of those trucks made.

^ There's that Azzzzzzzztek again. #1 ugliest car in the world. That's the one you could camp in, haul plywood in, and stuff like that, right?

I think the Aztek deserves a pile of shit on top and probably will look better, still a shame that Pontiac left because the last cars they made weren't that bad...

No car will ever be as ugly as the Aztek. It's simply not possible for any company to put something that ugly into production. As bad as it was, I think it's a mistake that won't be repeated (to the same degree). I honestly don't think any car even comes remotely close.

Aztek is the most hideous vehicle that was EVER created. Sad thing is I see quite a few
of them around Detroit because everyone here is so brainwashed to "Buy American".

I guess when your closeminded and the pickins are slim, you don't have much choice of what to choose from :D

Sorry, the Azztek is worse! The two separate top and bottom halves are not pretty but not vomit inducing. No matter how you look at an Azztek, it's full of day old second hand prostitute eaten dirty diarrhea vomit. There one modded Azztek on the interwebs that looks ok, but that's one example of all Azzteks ever made.

I saw a commercial for the Nissan Joke...er Juke last night. Appalling. And I saw something at the bottom that said $28,000?

^ Yeah. That was a type before.....:/...... I guess I saw $23,000, not $28,000. Still too much. Sorry, but I wouldn't wish a Nissan on my worst enemy (personal preference)....wait a minute...yes I would. One Bad Nissan Experience = I Hate Nissans.
