Beaker cars

So I was talking to a guy regarding 73 and newer dodge darts and dart sports, and he was passionately expressing his opinion as to how ugly they are.

This is not the first time I have heard this.

Why do people act like these cars have leprosy or something??

I like them and I would think that if they are so despicable then no one would have bought them new but yet it seems they were pretty hot sellers in the 70 and 80s, so what am I missing here?

I don't mind them. I do prefer the same year Duster styling but the Dart is not ugly. I have owned several:
