Ugliest Car Ever

Leave it to the Germans to make a car this ridiculously ugly. The die-cast car maker Vitesse, now owned by the Sun Star Group, produced this 1/43 scale Limited Ed. reproduction of the 1960 Messerschmitt KR200:



According to the Microcar Museum:

In 1952, Prof. Willy Messerschmitt needed a project to keep his RSM division busy, and a timely visit by his former employee Fritz Fend with a concept for a tandem two-seat vehicle resulted in a deal being struck. By the summer of 1952 a prototype was ready. Called Fend Kabinenroller FK-150, it included all the elements of the first production Messerschmitts except for the plexi dome made up of several pieces, and the 150cc motor.

The first production models had a lot of flaws, not the least of which being its sheer ugliness. In terms of teenie-weenie cars, the Messerschmitt is no where near as cute as this Limited Ed. 1967 Mini Cooper Silver Bullet:



I don't know if it is the fact that the designer of the Mini and I share the same first name or if it is the cute girl that is pictured with this car or maybe that there were only 500 of the Silver Bullets made, but I want one!

I have spent most of the day today figuring out what RSS is and adding it to my site. Now you too can get daily updates of the stupid crap that I post! Just check the links at the bottom of my sidebar.
