2002 Kia KCV-II
Before the arrival of Peter Schreyer, Kia was rather lost in the world of styling. This is made crystal clear by the KCV-II. The most disturbing part of this car is by far the brushed metal band that looks almost like a retainer trying to rein in the grille on the pickup/hatchback/SUV hybrid. We’re sure that whenever Schreyder wants to get a raise, all he needs to do is flash this picture for it to be done.

2004 Volkswagen Concept T
In the 2004 Detroit auto show, VW sprang the Concept T car. It definitely surprised and frightened the audience there. It takes a special kind of skill to take a light-hearted idea like the Meyers Manx dune buggy and transform it into something as off-putting as this. With a bizarre front and rear fender treatment, a shell that seems to be lifted from the pedestrian Passat, and the terribly thick quarters, this car is not one that should be produced.
