I'd say ugliest of all time went to another car that was featured on Breaking Bad: the PT Cruiser, appropriately used as a car gift that causes insult rather than happiness.

Though I'd bet the actual backstory to WW's Aztek is Pontiac paid them a bunch of money to use it in the hopes that it would boost sales if the show became popular.

    My PWT aunt's favorite car was the pt cruiser. She was over the moon when she got one.

    She get it real cheap used? They had a decent reputation because the new ones were mostly owned by old boomers that didn't push them very hard, so they were reliable (relative to the rest of the used car market), though that didn't help the way they looked or performed.

    The PT Cruiser is okay, but the Prowler was better.
