It doesn't have to be a real production car, it can also be a concept.
For me, it has to be the 1997 Dodge Copperhead. This ugly chungus just speaks to me and I don't know why. It is hideous, Pontiac Aztek levels of ugly, but I kinda wish Dodge actually sold it. It wasn't going to be gutless, sharing much with the Viper, but it also wasn't going to have the same price of the Viper (Viper at the time was ~$75k, this baby would have been ~$30k). For the price, a little ugly isn't that big of a deal for a similar powertrain. Surely a facelift kit could help it out some.
Just thought a discussion like this could be fun. What cars are the same for you?
never bought one but I always liked the Plymouth pt cruiser's look.
also Chevy HHR got a lot of hate but I thought it was neato.
Edit.. well I meant the SSR from Chevy, but misremembered as the pt cruiser wannabe HHR, my bad
I was tempted to get an HHR back in the day, but they didn't offer manual transmission.
Ended up getting a similarly divisive Subaru Baja.
For a while (and still now tbh) I wanted the SS model of the HHR. Thought it would be cool to do it black on black and call it the hearse.
I didn't know the pt cruiser was a question that needed an answer... Chevy did their .. ohh
HHR.
damn my initial comment I was thinking SSR and cross wired with they wayyy less good HHR. my bad I hadn't thought of any of these in like 15-20 yrs.
Everyone just got whiplash from your change in style from the 2 different vehicles. Was a fun ride you took us on with. Are you even allowed to say that abbreviation of HHR though, by your peer group?
