Whoever said the Caterham CT05 is ugly has a serious color taste problem.

I’m not that sure about the design, but the color is just magnificent!

The colour is beautiful, but a front end that looks like gentleman’s sausage is going to look like a gentleman’s sausage no matter what colour it’s in.

there is no hate to be given when its a GT car. Any GT car is cool in my opinion.

The Multipla and Prius aren’t that ugly, tbh. I could be wrong, but I’m noticing a serious bandwagon-mentality. Who doesn’t want to humiliate sports/GT300 cars in a Prius or Multipla?

The prius looks cool (in my opinion) and the multipla looks like it’s photoshoped

I can see our argument for the Prius but not the multipla

Fun fact. “Driftcar” Multipla has “Yokohama Time Attack” sticker all across it’s door. Yeah. Drifting. Sure. Pretty cool idea to take one of the most unaerodynamic cars ever and try to beat the clock with it. Pretty sure it left some local BMW’s with a sour taste in their mouth!
Also, that Prius is anything but ugly. Beautiful machine and amazing engineering that went into it too.

Fiat, is a maybe IMO, but that Prius. I’d drive one!

Hellooo? Have we all forgotten the Mosler Raptor? it was a race car for a short time before being kicked to the curb by regulations, but still counts, right?

I kinda like the Multipla in this case.. it’s very unique and the best looking multipla I’ve ever seen xD but it’s still ugly
