| Gimme a break... Enzo is ugly? Well, (imo) it's not as great-looking as the F-50 was, however, it's a master-piece & carry a unique profile look!  Considering now-a-days automotive journalism, imo, some people should just quit automotive industry & stick to the monthly newspaper columns!

| This was such an unprofessional survey! Just reading the comment quite obviously shows they don't have a wide knowledge of cars.. This is just stupid! "tiny cabin makes the wheels look gigantic, and the exaggerated front and rear bumpers seem pointless and tacky" If they knew the IQ they'd know that it was designed for maximum cabin room, the wheels were all placed as far possible to each corner so the cabin is not disturbed by the wheels leaving more room. As for the BMW the E65 was awful full stop. As for the E66 show in their pictures, that was quite a handsome car which was not ugly at all.
