If I had that kind of money just laying around I'd buy it, but before I drove it I'd take off al the decals and the wing...RMM wing = teh ugly.

*puts flame suit on*

i don't like it. i much rather have a car that can handle a corner than one that can get a fast 1/4mi time. i could find much better use for 100k. just my $.02.

CCX is prabably the ugliest exotic I've ever seen. The roofline is hideous.

i can think of 3 off the top of my head that are worse.

1. jaguar xj220. awsome car, but it's hideous.

2. porsche carrera gt. again, awsome car, but that is one of the worst rooflines i've ever seen. oh, and it's a convertable.

3. bugatti veyron. not the most attractive car.

thesandymancan, you have a warped sensor of style.

Veyron I agree with, XJ220 I would say is an acquired taste (at worst), but Carrera GT... come on man, haha. It's unbelievably great.

I still think some of the oldies are the best looking cars - 1965 Pwntiac GTO, 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500, 1970 Dodge Charger, 1973 Ford Falcon XB GT Coupe, 1974 Jensen Interceptor - those things all look like they'll eat your children if given half the chance....

I can agree with you on the other two but the Carrera GT is a beautiful car. I had one showing off for me the other day (don't know why) and I can assure you, in person the car is gorgeous. It also sounds like no other car I have ever heard, kind of a high pitch whine but still beefy.

However, none of the cars you listed were as ugly as the ccx. Something is really wierd about the windows and roofline on that car, and its only certain angles.

Kai, I can agree with you on some of those.

Yesterday I saw an old Aston Martin that reminded me of a 67 GT500. It was one of the most beautiful vintage cars I had ever seen. I'll try to get a pic of the model.

edit, it was similar if not the same as this vantage v8

Holy mother of god that is gorgeous. That looks like a mid 70's V8 Vantage. The one before the V8 vantage that was used in The Living Daylights...
