    I take pride in liking/owing controversial cars:

    Fiero
    Triumph TR7
    VX
    Ford Flex (wife's car)

    If someone doesn't hate it, it is BORING!

    Axiom is a pretty obscure choice. It really wasn't all that outlandish... Why would this "author" select TWO Issuzu's? I suppose he was being somewhat different, by not picking an AMC Pacer, another perennial on such list.

    Possibly. Keep in mind that the VX concept premiered at the Tokyo Auto Show in 1993 and the RAV4 wasn't for sale in Europe and Japan until 1994 and the US in 1996. You could argue that for the RAV4 to be for sale in 1994 they must have already been working on it before they saw the VX concept in 1993. But the first generation RAV4 was based on the Corolla so that had to speed development you would think. What is definitely possible is that the cladding was added to the RAV4 at the last second in response to the VX concept and to give it more more of an offroad appearance.

    Bottom line is it may not be as clear as you might think based solely on the US production start dates.

    Its hard to find cars ugly to me, I see them ether boring , or very unique . Like paintings in an art exhibit. Some you just glance at it and keep walking, others you just have to stop and really take a long look.

    Is it weird to look at that list and think "I would drive that"? Except that horrid Pontiac van. I would love a Marlin (not because of the screen name), I think it is awesome! My parents had an aztec, very cool car. Had the tailgate with built in seats, rear facing speakers, rear radio control, center console was an ice chest, tent and airbed built into the back. Very comfortable car.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    I'm reminded of dialogue in a scene from the movie "Drive" with Ryan Gosling when his mechanic boss had prepared a getaway car for him......"And there it is, dropped in 300 horses, chevy Impala, most popular car in L.A.....NO ONE will be looking at you!"

    (Just FYI, the same guy who oversaw the design of the VX for Isuzu did the Juke.)

    Always remember, when the Porsche Speedster came out in the fifties they called it a "bath tub". Now you can't buy one for less than a hundred grand.
