worst car you have ever driven.

[E30 Cabrio]

There's a good reason man...

American car companies don't put out anything worth buying, save for maybe a few (very few) select cars that are nice.

Even Corvettes up to the C5's and even some C5's themselves were just junky. Mustangs were garbage too. My mom had a 2001 Mustang and it rattled more than my E36. The Mustangs seemed to have gotten better lately though. Camaros were garbage for a long time too.

I had a C5 (1998 Convertible) and before that, a C4 (1987 Convertible) and I can tell you that the C5 was infinitely superior to the C4 and to most other cars.

I drove my mother-in-law/sister-in-laws RENAULT TWINGO the other day to work-- it is the crappiest car I have ever drove.-- its not run down at all- but it just makes driving absolutely not fun.


I bought a Buick Somerset for my wife as a winterbeater about 10 years ago-- it overheated the nextday-- what a piece of crap.

1987 bright red toyota tercel. 4 gears, tempermental brake, clutch and gas pedal (very mushy or just immovable) phantom handbrake (popped up after braking hard) and the least power in any car I have driven. It had problems coming up a driveway. I'm talking shakes.. Great head unit though :D

1998 dodge neon at driver's ed. Tranny hunted at 60 mph cruise on flat ground, and it seriously rode worse than my e30 on coilovers and poly. I honestly think it I wouldn't have been able to bear it as a daily. Second is probably a Dodge Ram 2500, I think it was a '98. Magnum V8. No power at all, crap interior, and had the worst brakes I've ever seen. It now serves duty as a farm truck.

1994 Dodge Shadow, got four miles, engine came apart.

ford taurus and explorers.

I just rented a malibu over the last week while traveling for work.

think it was a 08 or 09 and a 6 cly

no fucking power, looked retarded and got 19 mpg ...WTF?

This is the car I was going to post...

I had to take my E90 in for some warranty work and had an 08 Chevy Malibu for a rental, what a POS. I'm pretty sure the one I had was a 4-banger , which had absolutely no power. Add to that a shitty transmission that could not decide the right time to shift. What a horrible experience, I could not wait to get rid of it, it made me appreciate my cars so much more!

About the new malibus-I drove an LTZ V6 6-speed auto and was actually fairly pleased with it. There's better out there, but it is a huge leap forward compared to the old one.

lots 195? chevy 1 ton farm truck, LDV van, chevy sprint, the list continues

[James Crivellone]

To name a few

Dodge Caliber
Toyota Camry
Toyota Prius (why do people buy these stupid things?)

[FredK]

Early 90s Jeep Cherokee V6 with a worn-as-hell clutch, blown shocks, and rust all over. The way the car porpoised down the road was enough to give a man motion sickness, and the clutch had a hair trigger engagement point.

[Unearth078]

about the prius, they really are no good to drive, never personally have but out of 2 people who own them i have heard serious issues that seem like they stem from weight distribution. bad in snow and rain as well

Toyota Camry

James, I am hurt... j/k, but...

I have an 01 Camry and I will say that they are fine, reliable, comfortable cars. Good on gas, and with 205mm Mitchlins, has decient grip too. Slow (135hp and 3500lbs), yes, and def not sporty. But I like like mine, its a fine car (for the wife haha).

[parkerbink]

80's Fiat Brava wagon. Looked like this but a wagon.

No power below 20k rpm, had been jacked up on it's torsion bar so veered left on accel & right on decel, had a "feature" where every 40 minutes the ignition wires heated up and ceased to conduct electricity. You had to pull over for 10 minutes or so so it cooled and then the car started.

Got it for free and over paid, gave it away.
