    Really? It would be interesting to find the owner of the car and their reaction to being on an ugly car site.

    It was pictured and described here years ago, when the wood was relatively new and unweathered. I seem to remember that is was a low budget DIY collision repair job.

    It works, and it looks better than before the repair. I see no point in trying to shame it.

    Definitely needs this bumper sticker: To err is human, to ARR is pirate.

    I say it's so ugly it's beautiful again.

    Well somethings are created with the intention of being 'creative" over aesthetic beauty.

    And we don't really know the back-story.

    I'm kind of assuming maybe this was a beat up or wrecked Prius...and instead of investing into getting it to look like a "regular" Prius...the owner decided to simply make it a unique, novelty vehicle.

    I think I have to applaud that...not criticize.

    Plenty of "Regular" looking Prius in the world....there's only ONE of that ilk.
