Worst car ever!

[aa35199]

Just thought I'd throw this out, what was the worst car any of you ever owned? With me it was a 2000 saturn SL2, looked awsome, but I blew 2 transmitions, clutch, brakes all around and many smaller annoyances. Every time the saturn dealer blamed me (even though I don't drive like a kid) I paid 8 grand for the car then invested another 8k in repairs, I'll curse saturn until the day I die! The rusty 79 volvo 240 I owned before it was a much better car, I regret trading it in for that pile, oh well at least im in a camaro now.

I've owned a 93 Cavalier, 2000 S10 and my 2002 Firebird. I've had so many problems with this car after my cam went in...so would that make this my worst car ever?

My first car was an 87 mercury sable. I killed it with my lead feet. It pretty much sucked, but my family won it from WETA for doing a Sesame Street commercial back when I was 5 years old.

The Firebird I drive now is my first car. Since its my only car, does that make it my worst? And my best?

*Well I best not think to deeply on this one.*

First car parents gave me: 83 Nissan Maxima "Extreme Wagon Edition". OK it wasn't really called that. Rusty moonroof that leaked rusty water into the car when it rained, speed maxed out at about 85. Had over 200K miles when I got rid of it two years later. Oh and the last 4 months of it I had to use the passenger side door to get in/out of the car after my little sister had the door open and backed into a tree WITH THE DOOR!

Mine was my '95 Avenger. It could have hesitations when taking off from a stop, had intermitent dead car, from faulty wiring (I think there was a recall out on it, but I didn't know at the time), and I'm sure a few other little things (like a Dodge transmission). Overall, it was a nice looking car, with every option, but was it slow

My Firebird. I had a Daytona, Bronco, and a Grand Am prior, all with twice the mileage my bird has and less than half the problems if any. Same with my sisters Cherokee. I still like the Firebird though, but its falling apart.

A 1979 Chevy pickup with more problems than a drug addict. It went thru a transmission, a rear axle and the engine was smokin' like a diesel when I sold it (6 hours at 3500rpms at 230 degrees will do that to an engine). I also replaced several hundred other parts, had to completely rewire under the hood because some idiot screwed it up before I bought it, and it had a timing problem that I could never figure out even after changing every timing & ignition component frmo the timing chain to the spark plugs. I figured it was the oil pump dragging the distributor.

Every fluid source on it leaked, had rusty fenders, the air conditioner compresser clutch literally exploded and the heater never turned completely off, even with the fan off, it was blowing heat thru the defroster like it was on "low". To give you an idea of the simple stupid problems it had, the wiper switch malfunctioned, stuck the wipers on and burned up the wiper motor in 3 minutes.


The '98 Dodge is a close 2nd to that, having gone thru and engine, a trans, a rear axle, and it's 2nd engine's ticking like a timebomb about ready to throw a rod.

I don't have any bad cars after owning and trading 7 cars. But I have to admit that my mom's '85 Toyota Corolla was the worst car ever that I've driven when I use to live with them. Reliability was terrible, weak power and such.

94 Cavalier Z24.

I've had a 94 Blazer Tahoe LT(still have it), my 97 Camaro and an 89 Celebrity.

The cavalier gave us so many goddamn problems it was ridiculous.

My family has stuck with GM for ages though. There's only 1 car in my entire family that's non-GM and it's my little brothers. He was into the import thing for a while. He's selling that soon though and he's going GM.

Ditto. My parents bought a brand new 94 Grand Am with that pile of crap they call an engine. The transmission went twice, at 10,000 and 90,000 miles, and the head cracked beyond repair at around 60,000 miles. That's in addition to who knows what else went wrong over the years.

My first car, 1996 Camaro RS. Absolutely beautiful but one of the biggest pieces of **** on the road. Bought it for 8500 and put another 8500 or so in it on repairs. Lets see, alternator, rebuilt rear end, rebuilt transmission, ac compressor, new rotors and calipers, totally new cooling system on top of other things that I have forgotten. Had my Tundra for over a year now, such a better engineered car.
