Daewoo.

Still never forget how bland those cars looked in the 90s.

The Chevy Spark is uglycute, and a Daewoo in origin. So they tried to gloss up their design game… but made frog cars.

Look up Daewoo Racer. It was a hard sell in my country at a time when Japanese sedans dominated.

And that is a licensed version of the Opel Kadett E, after it was no longer produced in Germany.

The hatchback version of this was sold in Germany with a little facelift, basically all corners were a bit more rounded, but you could still recognize a somewhat familiar shape.

This is now way off thread, but all the proportions look wrong on that car.

Here's a very boxy car where the lines flow together and it aged well (1988):

Oh man, I remember seeing how Bentleys were much nicer than Daewoos too. Has anyone else noticed that?
