ithink the wors cars are:

10. honda civic- justuglylittle bugs.
9. mustangs- i just have agrudge, but i like svt and boss models
8. contour- as big a flop as new coke was for coca-cola
7. chevy cobalt-nothing more thana newer cavalier, only gayer.
6. anything by honda other than accords and s2000s
5. ford tempo- worse than my grandma's big ass.
4. jay leno's tank car- tanks more than leno's corny ass jokes(no pun intended)
3. opel speedster- makes a lotus elise look fast.
2. opel in general- they all suck poison out of men's asses
1. worst car of all=(drum roll) ford nucleon- if you don't know what it is, go to en.wikipedia.org and look it up and tell me that it isn't as ugly as HELL!!.

Volkswagen, and of course Audi.

You know it's crap when the engine locks up before 100k miles. We have a Jetta VR6 in our parking lot right now with a locked up engine.

So I go to this get-together at a friends house, not remembering it's a few days before Halloween. I see a bunch of dirty looking strangers. Then I see a guy that was clearly wearing a Halloween costume and I make the connection, and say "Oh yeah, Halloween... y'all goin' as a group of bums?". Turns out they weren't wearing costumes.

Re: the worst cars around

A car ran off a nuclear reactor? I am sure it would get great mileage, but I wouldn't want to be within a thousand miles if it crashed.

That is possibly the worst idea ever from a safety standpoint.

Re: the worst cars around

That's why they had a HUGE crumple zone in front of the reactor

Did anyone else notice where the front wheels were on that thing? Makes the front hangover on a VW/Toyota microbus seem tiny! The lead encasing the reactor must have been a counterweight?

LOL, no, but they intended it to. It was the nuclear age. A nuclear reactor is larger than that car, by a fair margin.

Anyhow, this thread is quite subjective. I know people that have VWs that have far more than 100,000 on the clock with no issues. However, I did have an AMC Wagoneer with a Chevy 2.8L V6 in it. That thing has to be one of the worst engines EVER. Original made it to about 100,000 before spinning a bearing and after a full rebuild it made to about 83,000 before it threw another. Not to mention that it was the most gutless vehicle I've ever driven.

However, I do know that this engine really is garbage since it's been on many worst engine lists of all time.

Also, if you're going to say something is crap, at least give a reason why.

Re: the worst cars around

1. Any and every form of smart. You might as well buy a Prius. It has better mileage and you and your passenger won't be servings of human spaghetti after an accident. Plus, they're down right slow and ugly.
2. Scion xB - Why in the world!? Doesn't this thing look like a toaster?
3. Honda Element - Another toaster.
4. Nissan 350Z - The ultimate ricemobile for the rich man; can't stand up to the Amercian muscle nor the German sleepers
5. Hummer H2 - Just tooooo big! A complete danger to other drivers.
6. Dodge Intrepid - Piece of crap.
7. All Lexuses, Infinitis and Acuras - Nice way of tricking people into buying more expensive Toyotas, Nissans and Hondas. Plus, they have stupidest names. Quit naming your with random letters and numbers!
8. Dodge Magnum - What is this thing?
9. Toyota Tundra - A very pedestrain-looking pick-up, simply one of Toyota's means of attraction the "stupid, gas-guzzler loving" American public. We're not fooled.
10. Honda Civic -The utlimate ricemobile for the poor man. The most hated.
