It turns out that everyone from Lincoln to Dodge has shipped an ugly car or two in their time

You came shouting back in your hundreds, nominating everything from Pontiac to Plymouth as being responsible for some of the ugliest American cars of all time.

Here, we've rounded up some of the top offenders for your enjoyment. So flick through the following slides to gawk at 15 of the ugliest American cars of all time. Did we miss any? Let us know in the comments below.

Lincoln MKT

Face like a paper shredder and bland EggsUV body. The worst of the worst in design language.

"Face like a paper shredder" is my new favorite insult.

Buick Skylark

92-95 Buick Skylark. How the front of that thing passed safety standards, I'll never know.

What started as such a sleek American cruiser ended in this pointy-faced monstrosity.

Plymouth Valiant

I'll nominate the first-gen Valiant.

There's a lot going on here. If it was toned down a dash, it might have looked much better.

Dodge Lancer

Dodge Lancers, 61/62. Neat but so hodge podgy and awkward.

If you think the sedan is "hodge podgy and awkward," just wait 'till you see the station wagon.

Chrysler PT Cruiser

How come nobody suggested the PT Cruiser yet?

Because nobody was as brave as you.

Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD

The current Chevy Super Duty better be on that list.

Technically it's called the 2500HD, but its still here on the list!

CitiCar

The CitiCar electric car from the late 70's.

Yeesh. And 5 mph bumpers on this '76 model...it's 'good' being protected.

Not only a deathtrap, but one so ugly when the first responders come to extract your crushed body from the tin can, they'll probably have trouble stopping laughing.

The CitiCar was built in Florida, just so you know.

Tesla Cybertruck

No. 1 draft pick: The Cybertruck!

They have technically made a couple of these in America, so it counts.

Tesla Model 3

No need to wait for the cYBeRtrUCk. Tesla already makes the ugliest American car โ€“ the Model 3.

If I'm honest, I'd say the Model 3 is the least offensive Tesla. Surely the crown for ugliest Tesla of the moment goes to the Model Y?

AMC Matador

1974-78 AMC Matador coupe. A car that was conceived to improve its aerodynamics for the sake of NASCAR. Then, to make the car racier, they add... opera windows.

The rear end looks like a retro spaceship design, which I like. But the front looks like a shocked tree frog, which I don't.

Mercury Comet

Late 50s/early 60s Mercury Comet...I could never get past this rear end looking like a cartoon alien.

The Comet's design was so bland that for its first few years on sale, Mercury didn't even put its name on the car.

Dodge Durango

I like the oval Taurus. At least they tried to make it interesting.

I'm going with the 2nd generation Dodge Durango. Big dumb underbite front end, tacky round-in-rectangle tail lights, looks like it's holding in a fart from any angle. They tried to class it up with the Chrysler Aspen but that was only a slight improvement.

The first Durango was an inoffensive family hauler. The second generation was what happened when the body panels started melting.

Edsel Pacer

Surprised it hasn't been suggested yet but the first-gen Edsel was...... not good.

Launched in 1958, the Edel Pacer shared its underpinnings with the much prettier Ford Fairlane.

Pontiac Aztek

The Pontiac Aztek ๐Ÿ˜‚ all years, every color, nothing could help that car besides maybe the popularity of Breaking Bad.

The answer you all came here for. Are you happy now?

Suggested by: Dustin Wolf (Facebook)

Pontiac Trans Sport

Pontiac made something uglier than the Aztek.

The Pontiac Trans Sport looked like the case your grandmother's vibrator came in.

Uglier than an Aztek? That means we must have a winner, I guess.
