Yep, Ugly. Even a Alfa 75 is better locking
Each to their own I suppose. I must admit, the A-pillar isn't quite how I remember it from the Matchbox model I used to play with as a kid (obviously not very accurate!), but I think it has a certain 'chunky' 80's appeal, at least to my eyes.
 
I love this horrendous looking abomination. Hard to explain why I like it so much...maybe it's that Extreme 80s styling, or its V6 motor.

There was one of these beaut's for sale on AutoTrader last time I looked. It was going for about £50k if I recall correctly.
 
Oh yes! Oh yes! Oh yes! I've always wanted this car in the GT games since GT2. I had a Matchbox toy of this car when I was young!
