Pretty much any new Acura is awful. It's like the designers got wasted and designed their cars in the image of half transformed autobots. Not surprising, most Hondas are pretty ugly, too... The Accord is bad, as well.

Yuck.
Pretty much every new car is ugly today, with these few exceptions:

- Full-size pickup trucks & vans (they have to retain a certain look in order to be as functional as their intended purchasing clientele expects)
- Throwback muscle cars (Dodge Challenger, Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro)

The ugliest of the ugly new cars, in my opinion:

1. Nissan Juke
2. Smart car (all models)
3. Toyota Prius
4. Acura ZDX
5. Fiat 500

This is a matter of opinion. I personally think the throwback cars are ugly and I generally hate them. If I wanted a car that looks like a 68 camaro, I would buy a 68 camaro. I have a buddy that had one up until a few years ago. That is just my opinion though.

I never said the new "throwback" muscle cars look anywhere near as good as the old ones. I just said they're not ugly. I would take an old one over the new version, any day of the week.

Only for investmewnt reasons. I owned many old musclecars. My '06 Mustang GT is a better car than any of them, as fast, handles better, rides better WHILE handling better, has as much tunability, and has better build quaility, reliability, will go many more miles without a rebuild, gets as good or better fuel mileage, stops better, is safer, and looks as good as the 1970 Mustang Fastbacks (including BOSS 302) I owned. And the new Mustangs are even better.

Simply put, the new ones are better at all aspects of being cars, and pretty much at all aspects of being MUSLCE cars, than the old ones were. The only advantage old ones have is in investment potential.

And this comes from someone who LIKES old cars, has owned many over the last 30 years, and has restored and modified many classic musclecars for street and race use. The new ones are just better. And I think the new ones look as good.
