As technology advances, many car companies try to put out futuristic looking cars to attract tech lovers and young consumers. Sometimes along the way, car designers make a few mistakes and instead of a car being funky and fresh, they wind up with a product that a lot of consumers may consider a road eyesore.
The Honda Element was introduced for the year 2003 and was one of the first boxy looking cars in a long time. This vehicle caught the eye of many drivers. Lots of teens and college students quickly nicknamed this car the lunchbox and the toaster. Although the car has been featured in many video games, sales showed that the car was not a big seller and Honda decided to stop making them in 2010.
The Pontiac Aztek was first sold in 2001. The origional model had a very pointy front and bright colored paint on the top and a gray coating on the bottom. The public and the media did not take to well to this car and many immediately started mocking the design. In 2007, Time magazine called the vehicle one of the worst cars of all time. Although the company tried to revamp the car a few times, it was an epic fail. The car stopped being produced in 2005.
The Mazda 3 used to be an affordable, stylish and appealing car. In 2010 however, the company decided to redesign the car to feature a large smile like grill in the front. The odd looking front turned off many consumers. Rumor has it that Mazda will be coming up with a replacemet design for future models.
