Yeah, we said it: The Chevy Orlando Concept shown here on the Paris Auto Show floor is the spiritual successor to the Pontiac Aztek . And in this case, we mean that as a complement: The Aztek had a ton of great interior features going for it, and the Chevy Orlando takes that post-minivan people-mover spirit and wraps it in sharp-looking sheet metal. The Orlando seats seven, has five doors and is based...

Oh, the indignity! I’ve taken my share of knocks for driving a Pontiac Aztek, but today is a new low. Readers of the Daily Telegraph have voted the Aztek the ugliest car of all time out of 300 nominees. The kicker? The Aztek was never even sold in Europe. As Edmunds puts it, “Even from [...]

The readers of Britain's Telegraph decided that the Pontiac Aztek was the king of their 100 Ugliest Cars Of All Time list , but James May disagrees. In fact, his pick for the Ugliest Car Ever wasn't even on the list! Meet the 1949 Triumph Mayflower , about which Mr. May states: "Its details are ugly, its overall proportions are ugly, its very concept - as a car to appeal to Americans who believed...

1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10.11.12.13.14.15.16. Pontiac Aztek When voting began, many didn’t know what an Aztek was. As a trickle of votes came in, however, people began searching Google’s image database, eyes boggled, the floodgates opened and the Fiat Multipla’s comfortable lead was pegged back. Proof that Americans do ugly better than anyone else, the Aztek was General Motors’ first mid-size “crossover”...

Say hello to my big friend. Spotted in a parking garage in the Marina (where, hopefully, it stays during daylight hours), it’s the Pontiac Aztek. Introduced for the 2001 model year, the Aztek is often regarded as the World’s Ugliest Car.

Does the Pontiac Aztek drive one to madness, or does madness drive one to a Pontiac Aztek? This is the question one must consider when reading the story of Adrian Cornelius Alexander and Antwan Haynes. The two Tennessee men went on crime spree last week enabled by a Pontiac Aztek and a couple of gorilla masks. After a foiled robbery in a Wal-Mart parking lot, the masked Alexander made another attempt,...

For just $1,651 this site will sell me a kit to convert the doors on my Pontiac Aztek into Lamborghini-style wing doors. Yay or nay? Believe it or not, at least one person has attempted this. Update: This, coincidentally, is the site’s 1,000th post. If I’d noticed the milestone I might have aimed a little higher today.

Filed under: Wagons/Estates , Etc. We've seen some dogface cars around here. As a baseline, most of us consider the stock Pontiac Aztek simply indigestible. With that in mind, when this "customized" Pontiac Aztek showed up on eBay last year, a few of us fell over the porcelain fighting to hold down lunch. Just as our stomachs have finally settled, we came across several pictures of a limousine in...

The Pontiac Aztek is possibly the most laughable production car of our time, a corpulent-looking body contour, awful trim and an awkward rear-end. Hell, even Time Magazine named it one of the 50 Worst Cars Ever Made saying, “This car could not have been more instantly hated if it had a Swastika on its forehead.” The Aztek ’s laugh-out-loud design and poor sales led to its demise in 2005, after only...

That Ron Paul bumper sticker looked so good on my Pontiac Aztek. Now I have two things to be embarrassed about when I drive. Between Paul's 1996 responses, his current non-response, his likely dishonesty on CNN, and his continued close association with the rumored author of the newsletters, I’m through hoping for a sufficient apology.
