What cars produced have had the ugliest grills?

I enjoy looking at the grills of cars - they usually tell you in an instant what make the car is and one way or another sets it off. What are some of the ugliest grills out there?

For years, the 1958 Edsel was considered the worst and sort of reminded you of -- well, you know... Actually, while the car was the worst flop in Ford Motor Company history, it was way ahead of its time.

My contemporary pick is the Audi grill. Personally, I think it is gross. I guess the car is a winner, but not the grill with me.

No picture...to lazy to look one up BUT, the Lincoln SUV's. They look really hideous for a "luxury" vehicle, IMO

I have to go with the Mazda 3. I remember the first time I saw the new style in Ohio at the car show we went to, when we were walking around looking for HHRs...

How about the upcoming Nissan Juke that should be here by the end of this summer. Too bad they screwed up the front end because the rest of this vehicle is awesome:



Another one I can't stand is the '95 Buick Skylark with it's pointed nose. I also agree that the new Acura Grilles are fugly.
