The two Azteks (one grey, one burgandy) that were at the Pontiac dealership in Burlington, NC this past summer are STILL there :D

Yes, ugly is right. And Tim Horton's is giving away 20 of the bastards in their roll up the rim contest. If I won one, I'd have to sell that ugly thing.

I heard that Tim Horton's didn't even pay for the Azteks. Pontiac gave it to them for the contest because they want to increase its exposure to people (i.e. free advertising) and they want to make it seem like its a prized possession (no pun intended;)).

I see you're only in it for the higher re-sale value ;) :Q :D :D :D :D

Saw them at the 2001 Auto Show...had to be taken home on a stretcher :Q :( ;)

sadly, most chicks i talk to like that hideous piece of machinery. :( chicks have no taste in vehicles! :)

Exactly!

Pontiac's not all bad though...my family has a 2000 Montana (with upgraded engine... 3.8L, 200HP) and it has been fine...no problems. Then again, not much choice since it's a company car and we got it for free :D

Ugly is the least of its problems. Have you ever been inside it. My nissan altima has more room and features than that POS.

The scary thing is that they actually put it in front of focus groups to decide on the best looking concept. I'd hate to see the designs they turned down.:Q

I'd also hate to be one of the people subjected to such torture.:Q:Q

Kinda reminded me of the episode where homer simpson designed a car and ruined his brother.

The only difference is the car homer desinged actually had some thought put into it ;)

A friend of mine works at a Pontiac dealership. Not too long after the Aztec was released, the owner held an emergency meeting. The owner stated that if he heard one more employee joke about how ugly the Aztec is, that person would be fired immediately.

LOL.
