We found that Autoblog readers have a passionate disdain for what we declared the "Ugliest. Mustang. Ever." Some of our favorite comments:
"God kills a kitten every time somebody ruins a perfectly fine automobile like this."
"Nah, this is a prop for Michael Bay's new movie... "Transformers: Beast Machines". Just like the cartoon, the Autobots transform into animals. If you squint you can see that the hood scoops form the rear cheeks of the baboon 'bot, Assimus Prime."
"Looks like that pony's got rabies."
A member of Mustangforums.com even issued this Mustang a rice citation.
Well things just keep getting better (or worse, depending on how you look at it). We found out that you can actually buy your own version of this monstrosity. That means that it wasn't built as some sort of sick joke, as some had hoped. The brochure we picked up at the booth says that they will be available for purchase after SEMA. Rich Evans Designs in Huntington Beach, CA will make them to order. For more info go to www.richevansdesigns.com. Hit the jump to view video of the vehicle in all its glory.

I think the only reason I would call that number is to yell at them for even THINKING about doing this to another car, let alone selling them.
Good lord. That thing didn't get hit by the ugly stick... it IS the ugly stick.

i dunno i kinda like it, the hood has to go though
JP @ Nov 1st 2007 2:26PM
The worst part is the chrome grill inserts, It reminds me a trend back in high school where kids would mask off perfect circles in the middle of each color on their taillights and then paint the rest of the lens the closest color Krylon made to their body color.
The hood scoops and body kit are bad too, don't get me wrong.

I feel for them. I really do.

Oh god, it's back
I've seen prettier things coiled around the toilet bowl.
AZ @ Nov 1st 2007 2:35PM
Could this be a marketing plot to get people's attention on their wacky chrome rims? I'd like to think so.
Jerk Face @ Nov 1st 2007 2:36PM
Ugh. Look at the splitter on the front of this turd! Is that a Batarang?
Drew Phillips @ Nov 1st 2007 2:46PM
I think we broke their web site.
AutoXN @ Nov 1st 2007 2:46PM
I've seen worse..... oh wait..... no I haven't. I can't believe this company thinks they will be taken seriously by creating a monstrosity.
Dr. K @ Nov 1st 2007 2:55PM
If you've ever seen the show 'Chop, Cut, Rebuild' you've seen Rich Evans at work. An 'acquired taste' to say the least. I guarantee you'll see this rig in either a Batman/Spiderman/Mad Max-type movie or a futuristic rap video somewhere down the road (picture Kanye West driving...) Proves again, there is no such thing as bad publicity!
NY Diablo @ Nov 1st 2007 3:00PM
that let that into SEMA ?

So help me God, should I see this abomination on the road, I'm going to toss a molotov cocktail on it.
