Ten worst cars of the millenium! HaHa

"The bus had no heat, blew over in the wind and used the driver's legs as its first line of defense in an accident."

and

"This car topped out at 45 mph. Since the minimum speed on the Florida Turnpike is 40, patrol cars would follow me, waiting for me to hit a hill so they could ticket me."

I love the quotes.

6th place: Renault LeCar
"Like any French restaurant in America, it was overpriced, noisy, moody, and would put you in mortal danger if you had an accident with anything larger than a croissant."
"I left it unlocked overnight, and it was finally stolen. The insurance check paid for a textbook."

3rd place: Ford Pinto
"I took this car to a high-crime shopping mall and left it unlocked with the keys in the ignition. I came back several days later and, much to my disgust, it was still there."
"The car would do 75 mph in 2nd gear, shaking apart and sounding like a bat out of hell. In fourth gear, the top speed was 70 mph. What's wrong with this picture? You do the math."

2nd place: Chevy Vega
"When the rear end went on my Vega, the Chevy dealer accused me of racing it. Racing who? My grandfather in his wheelchair?"
"As near as I could tell, the car was built from compressed rust."
"My Chevy Vega actually broke in half going over railroad tracks. The whole rear end came around slightly to the front, sort of like a dog wagging its tail."

ROFL! Such memories...

I remember those Dodge Aspens and how they rotted out prematurely.

"Burned so much oil, it was single handedly responsible for the formation of OPEC."

The Cartalk Guys are a riot to listen to. Go through the rest of the site and you'll get a real laugh. The "Dodge Dart" review is a must read.

Hey, the Zephyr isn't on the list...

My buddy had a Zephyr and he never went anywhere without at least 2 cases of oil in his trunk, because that was about how much oil it burned in a week.

That is the truth.

Hey, did AMC ever make a car that wasn't a ridiculous piece of crap? Seriously, I can't think of any AMC car that wasn't a disaster...

 

[DataFly]

<< &quot;Remember that great Pinto bumper sticker, 'Hit Me and We Blow Up Together?'&quot; >>

Looks like they're all old cars. They don't make cars like those anymore. Yugo got 1st place, lol.

<< &quot;At least it had heated rear windows--so your hands would stay warm while you pushed.&quot; >>






<< &quot;I took this car to a high-crime shopping mall and left it unlocked with the keys in the ignition. I came back several days later and, much to my disgust, it was still there.&quot; >>





<< &quot;The car had all the quality and safety of a cheap garden tractor.&quot; >>





<< &quot;When we traded it in my wife was upset because we didn't keep it long enough for her to buy a gun and shoot it.&quot; >>

 

[Dedpuhl]

&quot;The Yugo's first stop after the showroom was the service department: 'Fill 'er up and replace the engine!'&quot;

 

[silverspear]
