Honestly, I've been an admirer of many of Ghia's Chrysler showcars since I was a little kid. 

One of this series of Ghia designs was featured in a children's book I vividly remember.

Virgil Exner actually didn't mind that the Karmann Ghia directly copied his  1953 Chrysler D'Elegance | Hemmings

Yes, those are unusual creations.  But to me the front looks like it has a big frown, and the  roof line (at least from this angle) has a VW Karmann-Ghia look (not surprisingly).  Not ugly, but not beautiful either.  Well, that nose just doesn't work for me.
