It doesn't have to be a real production car, it can also be a concept.

For me, it has to be the 1997 Dodge Copperhead. This ugly chungus just speaks to me and I don't know why. It is hideous, Pontiac Aztek levels of ugly, but I kinda wish Dodge actually sold it. It wasn't going to be gutless, sharing much with the Viper, but it also wasn't going to have the same price of the Viper (Viper at the time was ~$75k, this baby would have been ~$30k). For the price, a little ugly isn't that big of a deal for a similar powertrain. Surely a facelift kit could help it out some.

Just thought a discussion like this could be fun. What cars are the same for you?

I see a sidewinder in the background too. That was always my favorite of their concepts in that era.

I think the Lamborghini LM002 might be the bad looking darling of my childhood.

Or the Bizzarini BZ-2001 concept. I had a poster on my wall.

See, I think that the Sidewinder genuinely looked good, for the time. Make it a bit more square and the front end could easily fit into modern designs aesthetics.

The LM-002 has always been my favorite offroad truck. It was designed as a military vehicle, and I feel it looks better in a camo livery than painted for the road. I feel the same about H1 Hummers too.

That Bizzarini is something nasty though. Probably one of their uglier designs, but I think the Bizzarrini Kjara takes the cake for ugliest in their catalog:
