    I'm a wagon girl so personally I'm not a big fan of any of the sedans but love my VB sedan more for sentimental reasons then looks though. As for the ugliest for me I'd say the new sportswagons. I look at the rear of them and to me they are squished and out of proportion. I have seen ONE that I feel in love with but that was it.

    And the other is kind of weird & I can't explain it I cannot stand VL's and yet I'd kill to own a Walkinshaw go figure.

    Definitely the VN in any form. Atrocious inside and out. Closely followed by stock VR Executives...just incoherent design IMO. Also I was a big fan of the VT when it came out but it hasn't aged well at all.

    Most of the early commodores, then the VP, VN and stock VR/VS's look pretty ugly too

    I just passed a car that I had completely forgotten about and it's a good candidate for the ugliest "Commodore"..

    Any Lexcen.

    Anything older than a vt should only be used as a pub car ( you can not polish a turd to look like a diamond )

    Ummmmm.........what?

    As Pauline Hanson once said,

    "Please explain."

    Your point is sort of difficult to understand.

    None of them... to the diehard commodore lover its a bit like asking a mother who is the ugliest child in her family
    On the other hand who could go past the au falcon for being the ugliest australian made car of all time and has the sales figures to back it up. ford taurus couldnt look worse either.
    The bloke in the next post below this one = mr anal......lucky I can spell (or the computer can) or hed be on to that.

    The Taurus was imported, not made here. Some Commodores are less attractive than others because the passing of time dates certain design features and the squared off rear wheel arch is probably the most obvious example. They were different and distinctive in 1988 but look odd and unattractive today. Even "diehard" Commodore fans acknowledge that their designs were not all perfect and it's fair to say that there are plenty of diehards here, yet the VN and VP seem to be generally the two models most disliked.

    It would be boring if everyone liked the same thing.

    My vote goes to the VN and VP. SS and HSV models look alright, but unfortunately there's just not enough of them around. I cannot stand base model VNs and VPs stock, or modified.
