Suzuki Aerio
 
I just saw my first one today. I had to look a long time, cause I couldn't believe how ugly it looks. Am I the only one? Help.

i test drove an aerio a few months back, and was VERY unimpressed. i did scare the poor sales kid i had tagging along with me though. he kept going on and on about the ABS, so i said 'mind if i try them out'? so from about 50mph, i put it to the floor. i guess he wasn't expecting to stop as fast as we did because his head almost hit the windshield even with the seatbelt on. after that, he said it was a good idea if we went back to the store :D

You were very impressed compared to what? Were you impressed with the ABS, or the car in general. I find it hard to believe that car would make me impressed, maybe I should take it for a spin...hmm...but then people might see me....:eek:

Isn't the Aerio a squashed version of a Minivan? Hey thers no 3rd set in the back.:D

I'm trying to find something on that car that I like.. even the door handles and mirrors are nasty.. umm from a distance the antenna looks cute.. who knows from close up tho..

I have never seen a car as ugly as the Aerio hatch! Those wheels look puny compared to the profile of the car. I just wanna :barf: looking at it. I hope I never see one on the road, might have a siezure or something.

thank you.

there's nothing sport or compact about that car. it's heavy and soft in the power and handling dept. granted, that's coming from someone driving a car that's almost unstreetable because of all the mods, but it know what i like. that isn't it.

the car itself looks too tall, same reason i didntget the Matrix, looks like a minivan from teh side

Funky Buddha October-8th-2002 05:19 PM

Ya those things are pretty ugly. Wheels look too small for the size of the car. It's like a dwarfed minivan. It should've never made the production line. Whoever engineered that should've been executed at the factory parking lot.

ZZOOOMM October-8th-2002 05:26 PM

Looks like a guppie. Someone asked me if my car was a Areo tring to get a rise out of me!!! Jackass

Toru October-8th-2002 05:31 PM

To top off the Aerio bashing...

They produce it in this pale banana yellow color that just does NOT look good on a car...

I would classify it right up there with the lime green Neons of the 90s (ewwww! Remeber those?).

Oh yeah, one more thing. What is up with those TV commercials? "It's True" that they are pretty stupid.

I always think those areolas look like a stretch civic SiR, which in my opinion is one of the ugliest vehicles in the world.
