    0:50 - You missed the mark with the Panda. Yes, it might not be that nice from an "American legend" point of view, but it was conceived ground up rationally and 4.5 million units sold confirm that it was not that ugly and that people loved it (and many of them regret they don't build it like that anymore).
    2:36 - That's not a Brooks Stevens' Studebaker SS: it's an original 1936/39 SS Jaguar 100, the first one to bear the Jaguar brand name.
    5:07 - I agree with you even though I'm Italian: the Mondial was and is an ugly car.
    10.07 - The car you show at this point is not the large model you think, it is the "Giulietta" instead, ancestor of the same segment as the Milano (in Europe, model "75"), same wheelbase but a whopping eight inches shorter than the Milano.
    May I suggest you to focus on American cars, where you show greater expertise?

    To be fair, the Fiat Panda is the only car in this video, which was a very cheap, reliable car, without any frills on prupose. In this video there is a car radio perfectly fitted into the front, mostly it was just placed into the open ledge. Together with the Seat Marbella it was perfect for students, social services ( like food delivery for old people ) etc.
    Like Romanian Dacia did during mid 00 years, when they launched the Dacia Logan into the Western European market at an extremly low price, looking ugly, spartanic equipped, while the CEO of this Romanian sister of Renault said, that "cheap" is no reason for uglyness and the styling of them changed... but also prices raised from € 6.500 to 11.300 €.

      The LSC was essentially on the same unibody framework, but got the same H.O. engine as the mustang. Except 84, 85 which were turbocharged like turbocoupes before they were.
      Also the LSC had a beefier/bigger rear axle, shaft splines, control arms, & calipers, & eventually all around disc brakes long before even the Mustang.
      And with any of the available Mustang or 5.0L engine upgrades you could build a serious street machine.
      I know I did, my brother did. He even converted his to 5 speed which now is TKO 5 speed to handle the 650HP .

    Again, totally disagree that the ''84 Lincoln Mark VII was ugly. That was one of my favorite cars ever designed, styling-wise. I mean how could you possibly consider that car ugly? It may have been mechanically a disaster like most American cars of that era, but the Mark VII was a beautiful work of art!

    0:24 The '80 Seville wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but I wouldn't call it ugly. It was also much more roomy and comfortable than the original 76-79 car, though you would want an '80 or '81 with one of the 6.0 L engines. The V-4-6-8 is no problem if you disable the cylinder deactivation, and some say it even runs fine if you disable the rough 6-cylinder mode and let it switch between 4 and 8 cylinders.
    1:46 The Citation was not exactly a work of art, but I wouldn't call it ugly. Most of the problems were fixed by the '81 model year and the car was surprisingly comfortable and versatile.
    So, what was really ugly? The '78-'79 slope-back Buick Century and Olds Cutlass "fake hatchbacks". They look as if somebody made a diagonal cut through a station wagon with a sawzall.

    1:30 FIAT "amazingly" kept the Panda in production for 23 years because it was one of the best cars it (and every car brand) ever produced in the specific segment the Panda served! FIAT cars may always be mocked by the ignorants, but if there's something that FIAT was really good at was producing cheap and well functioning utility cars. Toyota took years to hurt FIAT in the utility segments in Italy!
    The Panda was my first car. I drive a Porsche Carrera now. I would still buy the same FIAT Panda for my kids if it was available today (adding only airbags to it)!
