I was born in 1976 so pretty much everything was crap with a few exceptions.

One obvious exception is the 1976 Lamborghini Countach LP400 "Periscopica"

The choices from 1981 are near limitless, but I'll give the ugly tree prize to the bustleback Seville. Even as a little kid I thought these were so ugly, that they made me angry to see. My best friend's grandfather had one for a while, and I was happy when he wrecked it, because that meant I didn't have to see it again.

No argument here on that front. Hence Capri and Torino. The Torino on top is what ours will look like after paint, the Capri on the bottom is the old mans actual JPS.
