Mad Max Called, He Wants His Mustang Back!

Voted Worlds Ugliest Mustang, 2008 on Autoblog.
http://www.autoblog.com/2008/11/05/s...urns-for-anot/

We called it the Ugliest. Mustang. Ever. Our readers called it a pony with rabies, a monstrosity and an abomination. Many of you didn't even believe the car was real. For some reason the guys over at Rich Evans Designs were willing to once again face public humiliation and brought out what they call the "Hardcore Knight" Mustang to SEMA once again. We thought we noticed some differences, and looking back at the photos from last year, we can see they added a few extra spikes (for good measure) to the roof line and the mirrors. Everything else remains relatively the same, including the belief that they can actually sell versions of the car to the public. Rich Evan's web site claims that they will be producing 100 limited edition cars and up to 1000 of the 19-piece component kits to make your own. We wish him the best of luck.

The funniest part is the guy standing there on the phone with a cardboard cut out of himself wearing the same shirt standing there with him...

Wow that is one weird looking Mustang. Will we ever see one on the street ? Probably not. I cannot imagine anyone buying or modding to make it that hideous. YUCK!

I can't believe that car showed up again at SEMA. I guess it had to retain it's title as ugliest Mustang. Although attach mode KITT would run a close second place.

Wow, fugly just doesn't begin to describe this piece of !!!

So you also mean to tell me the for $9,996.90 I too can up my Mustang? Wouldn't it be cheaper to just buy a sledgehammer and have at it, you're gonna get the same effect!

but you also know some civic owner is calling to see if the kit is available for his car yet!

When I walked by this car at SEMA I could do nothing but shake my head and fight off the irresistable urge to deficate on the hood in the only attempt I could think of that might make this car somehow look better.

It looks like the damien child of Knight Rider meets Fast & Furious. Just not good. And to top it off, people spend money doing this.

I kind of like it, but then again I remember stitting in line (at the drive-in) to see the new Mad Max movie when it came out. Then again two years later at the same place.
