Which Make and Model of Automobile was THE WORST EVER?

[Journeyman]

I know when I was a kid, there were some real

lemons, the ones that come to mind.....

The VEGA

The Pinto

The Pacer (remember the commercial, the guy eating the real long sandwich in the back seat?)

The Chevette

If anyone ever had one of these 4 cars I hope you have regained your "cool"

Egad......

Skoda

1996 Dodge Stratus ES from North America

The worst automobile ever created!

Gremlin

During my sr year in college I bought a two-toned brown/beige used Chevette ! HAHA

Those were the days...

The Corvette didn't sell much at all and they were about to scrap the car until they put in a V8 and then they couldn't produce them fast enough.

Duster?

The Yugo
aaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[LogansRun]

From one of the higher end producers....

The aesthetically displeasing Porsche 914. A rare mistake.

the Grotesque Gremlin.
the Putrid Pacer.
the Fricking Fuego.

I think these fit the bill.

The YUGO
can you say "flush my cash down the toilet"

Ford Edsel was a real loser.

The Yugo was probably the worst piece of shit assembled and called a car.

Can you imagine going to the car dealer and buying a brand new Chevette?

Are you riding home giddy with New Car Heebie Jeebies

Do you get out of your Jeep AMC Pacer and take a look back and say damn that is one helluva ride

Its not like these brand new pieces of crap went right to used car lots like new movies go to Blockbuster

The Ford Edsel was a car that very EXPENSIVE to produce for Ford because of all the new Space Age Features they designed just for the Edsel like the Carousal speedometer and other dashboard features.

The problem was the car had all these expensive and advanced features...and the car looked like SH*T ! It was awkward looking...so no one bought it.

Ford lost allot of money on the Edsel...and the whole project was a failure.

But it was a fantastic car and still is today with features not every seen since.


------------------------------------

the 2 WORST CARS are probably the Volkswagen THING or the Yugo..the Yugo may win the prize as it was found out to be made with USED and faulty parts.

Yugo..Yugo..Yugo-slovia

The 914 was not a bad car though ... in fact it could arguably be considered the forerunner of a long tradition of German cars that shared a common platform and have consistently been popular and in most cases hihg-rated:

Gen 1: Volkswagen Scirrocco/Porsche 924/Audi _____ (forget what it was called)

Gen2: Volkswagen Corrado/Porsche 944

Gen3: Porsche 968 (which I personally love and used to own)

A lot of people panned the Ferrari Dino too, but without it there never would have been the twenty-five year and counting tradition of the 300 series, which has almost always been an outstanding entry-level exotic (early 80's notwithstanding, but that was a terrible era for performance cars across the board.)
