You folks have obviously never seen a 1950's Czech-built Tatra!

Ugly, huh? The scary thing is that these pictures don't do the car
justice. I've seen one in person and they are even uglier. Guess we now
know that when the Iron Curtain fell that the Tatra's designers
immigrated to Pontiac, Michigan! :-)
At least the current one looks like it was built in the 1970's:
