Bob, I know how much you like Toyota's new front ends, so here you go:
The new Toyota Mirai foolcell vehicle.
I'm sure it will prove to be a timeless design like the old Acuras:

I don't get why Toyota feels the need to make such ugly automobiles. Do they actually think that looks good?

The critical reaction to the Mirai was horrible. I don't think I saw a single review, story, or comment that didn't mention how horrendously ugly it is. But, the Prius is ugly and shoe-like and people buy them by the thousands every year. Never thought I'd say this, but I long for the cars (style at least) from the 80's and early 90's.

Honestly besides the new taco/tundra and the camry. I find all of toyotas latest offerings VERY fugly. Course I also find most of the new stuff period is fugly. Way to much plastic, way to little chrome, trucks are super low to the ground (besides toyota it seems) and things arent built as well as they once were.
Im with Sean on this, I like the look of the 90's and 80's more than what we have now. The bulkyness is what really kills me-damn trucks look like tanks.

I don't think so. I love the styling direction that Kia has gone with the Optima, Nissan's fleet looks great, even the new Accord and to a lesser degree the Civic look amazing. All of the Fords look great now, and I even like the new Mustang. The Chevy sedans are even starting to look nice. Toyota just manages to push out some of the ugliest cars.

^ Perhaps thats just it. I find dodge and toyota to have the fugliest offerings tbh.
