Which "marmite" styled cars do you love/hate?
Discussion
I agree with the current Beetle. I used to hate them but somehow the penny dropped one day and I suddenly 'got' them.
They do a sort of retro 70s themed one which sounds rotten but looks quite good.
I used to kid myself that my old Vel Satis was so stylish only true car design connoisseurs could see it

HATE
I honestly really hate these things, I don't know why. I just think they are so damn ugly but everyone will buy one "Cos BMW m8". When they first came out everyone seemed to be of the same opinion, now I get flamed for calling out that gopping face and saggy side lines.

LIKE
It's a 2 door Coupe people carrier. It's so hilarious that it's brilliant. I don't really like the french, but Renault were on fire around this time for releasing stuff that every other manufacture would have as a concept only.
I also really liked the proportions of my MK1 Octavia. Everyone calls it ugly, especially as I had it in Yellow, but I simply loved it.

I seem to like marmite cars, have just purchased an SRT-6. The Crossfire styling seems to produce very different opinions.
The pictures also shows how cars can change from their prototype, and considering it was Chrysler's replacement for the Prowler it is very different.

I just love the individuality of these.
Unfortunately for me, the prices seem to have rocketed recently
