No, please don't tell us.
Also, where does A5 Golf and Jetta go on the list? I would put this Golf way higher than the Jetta which looks like a dam Toyota.

Older Scirocco 13. A1 Golf and Rabbit and GTI 14. Passat 15. Vanagon and Polo (tie) 16. Newest Bus 17. Lupo Worst (from ulgliest to less ugly but all are still ugly): 1. Fox 2. Thing 3. Squareback 4.

if you have ever owned a Corrado.. it has to be higher than 4th
timeless lines... i still excited when i see a picture, or one in person owning a Corrado is to appreciate VW form my 2 cents canadian cheers Mike "Tom Levigne" > wrote in message nk.net... > Oh I forgot any Karman Ghia which of course goes in worst list - probably > about 3rd or 4th to be exact (slightly uglier than old beetle). > > > "Tom Levigne" > wrote in message > ink.net... >> Best: >> >> 1.

I don't think anyone is ever going to agree on this list... personally I
think the original Scirocco is possibly the best looking VW ever... one of Giugiaro's better designs, not too extreme but tight and classy at the same time. Personally I think the KG is 2nd and Corrado maybe 3rd... the form has promise but a lot of its lines are ripped off from the old Studebaker Avanti and honestly IMHO Loewy did it better. Those are probably the only three VWs that I truly DROOL over although I do have a soft spot for Mk2 Sciroccos having driven one for years. I miss that car sometimes... I really don't get the evolution of the Golf/Jetta platform. I dunno whether I like A1s or A2s better, it depends on the day, but each iteration following has been less appealing to me than the one before (OK, I like the A4 just because it had the ultra-badass 1.8T in it, but other than that I can leave 'em all, A5 included. The 1.8T really belongs in a Mk1 Scirocco anyway <G>) nate michael wrote: > if you have ever owned a Corrado.. it has to be higher than 4th > > timeless lines... > > i still excited when i see a picture, or one in person > > owning a Corrado is to appreciate VW form > > my 2 cents canadian > > cheers > > Mike > > > "Tom Levigne" > wrote in message > nk.net... > >>Oh I forgot any Karman Ghia which of course goes in worst list - probably >>about 3rd or 4th to be exact (slightly uglier than old beetle). >> >> >>"Tom Levigne" > wrote in message hlink.net... >> >>>Best: >>> >>>1.

I hope I didn't annoy too many people. But it was a thing of beauty.

About the Audi's - I agree, they are the best looking sedans on the road
right now (A6 gets my top marks). "Mike Smith" > wrote in message ... > Rob Guenther wrote: > >> I think the Phaeton is their best looking car... has so much presence... > > *Too* much presence.

That's why this one is in the best looking group.
