worst car you have ever driven.

[JasonC]

Hey any of you ever driven a Ford Farimont? Now there is a great example of American automotive engineering at it's finest. :)

My grandparents had one when i was alittle kid. All i remember that it was UPS brown.

80's-90's chevy blazer. i pulled one to mount tires the other day and it felt like it was going to tip over all by itself.

Must of been the 95+ model. The older ones seem to drive better then the newer ones. But the older one will drive you nuts with the squeaky back window.

Fbody, Could play football on the dashboard. I felt so white trash in the clumsy put together plastic interior.

About any buick, esp the mid 90's 4 door ones that was a bit smaller, they shared the same platform as lots of the olds.

Sunfire's cavaliers.... Cobolts... mostly buicks and olds.

[Hick]

lol at all the sunfire/cavalier, had to add to this now

Borrowed my grandmothers 1998 Cavalier, worst car ever! But it was faster than some fags automatic 2nd gen RX7 that tried to race me in it way back in HS. Not only was i faster off the line, but i beat him on some twisty bits after.

The close second was my other grandparents 1988 Lincoln Towncar. OMG that thing was a blast! front sway bar link broke, so i cut them out. Oh the lean

Biggest suprise, I got a 1984 Peugeot turbo diesel STI to save on $5.50 a gallon diesel just over a year ago, figured it would be a pos, but it turned out to be quite fun.

Worst, carbureated vehicles late 70s and early 80s, unless they are perfectly maintained!

This is actually a tough one for me because I have have had wheel time on many and varied pieces of shit.

The first one that came to mind was the '58 BMW Isetta, for some reason I can't recall I thought it would be the "fucking cats meow" to drive to work in an Isetta. Though one of the coolest looking machines ever, it was one sorry piece of shit (I have to admit that this idiocy has taken me more than once. I've put together two more since then and pretty much the same result, a toy better left to the history books than on the road.

Next one that strikes me at the moment was a '79 530i (e14) that fucker couldn't make it out of the driveway without cracking a head (thermal reactors, what idiot asshole came up with that?)

But I do belive the tops in fucked up machines has to be International Harvester Travel-all, basically a Suburban built for "Jedidiah the farmer" they should have come with bailing wire and duct tape in the factory tool kit, even the gas tank fell out of this one.

1996 Ford Probe 4cyl or 1994 Dodge Stealth 6 cyl FWD. The Probe was just ridiculously slow and numb, the Stealth was ridiculously heavy and numb...and slow.

96 dodge ram 2500 diesel. motor good everything around it complete shit.
90 plymouth spirit (sisters first car). 4 banger auto end of story.
94 ford thunderchicken (grandmas car). 40k miles and the thing was falling apart. direct from the factory the door panels didn't match and you could see how thin the paint was.
Multitude of GM work vans for previous employers. just to give an idea the most he spent on buying one was $1200. LOl

i had to ride in a coworkers saturn aura again last night for an hour... It made me physically ill. Something about them makes me want to vomit and i think its the terrible seating position

Triumph Stag.

I maintain to this day, that the Pontiac Grand Am has the record for the biggest total sales: piece of shit ratio ever. There are so many of these turds on the road. When I leased a new Jetta in 2001, the sticker was about $22k. I think at the time a similarly optioned Grand Am was about $25k. Say what you want about Jetta build quality; I never had a single problem in 45k miles. Every Grand Am that came through our stereo shop was a piece; vintage having no effect. I can forgive a 350k Justy for being a deathtrap, but not a 35k Pontiac.

didn't that car win 'North American Car of the Year' in '07 or '08?

[BeirBrennerE30]

didn't that car win 'North American Car of the Year' in '07 or '08?

no idea...and it definitly wouldnt have been if I had a vote. This is twice now that car has made me sick. Same model, 2 different cars. Not like ewww I dont like this car sick, more like if I dont get out of here in 5 minutes on am going to throw up all over the inside of it sick. I dont know why. Then I get back in my car and I was fine 10 minutes later...

I can. I love the money that was made of their head gaskets. And cracking manifolds.

Anything built by Hyundai.

veto that. I get a rental car for trips about once a week, and request a brand new Hyundai Sonata V6 everytime. They are really quick and very fun to drift around corners. Try driving an Impala or Malibu (when sonatas aren't available), then drive a sonata. The difference is mind boggling.

Today, I officially drove the worst car ever. '08 E350 12-passenger van

steering = numb
handling = deadly
interior = rattle trap
performance = lepracy
overall=

Honestly, I've never driven a worse vehicle. This thing was an abomination. It weaved more than Betsey Ross. It bobbed and weaved more than Larry Fitzgerald. I hate, hate hate, this fucking van. It makes the steering in a Lincoln Towncar feel like Formula 1. The ride bounces like a hooker on a coke dealers cock, and the interior noise rivals that of a 747 on takeoff. You could feel every bump you hit vibrating it's way through the frame of the car, shaking the whole chassis around. Sitting in the front was ok, but the back was unbelievable. Each little dimple and pebble on the road was magnified in to a boulder by the stiff suspension and loose-as-a-hooker chassis. No wonder they're going out of business.....
