Having problems with message search?
My vote would go for:
- Yugo (Only $4,000, but it fell apart after two years - not many repeat buyers lol)
- Gremlin (I still remember my best friend in college on the side of the road time after time trying to get his started.)
- Nova (well the US version was successful but in Mexico when they launched it Nova means "No Go" in Spanish)
- The Thing. The big selling point on this jeep/hummer hybrid was that you could configure it seven different ways (convertible, hard top, two seater, six seater, etc.) Of course every configuration was just plain ugly.
- Pacer. The unique selling proposition of this car was that it was the "Widest" car ever made. And boy was it ugly. :-)

The Chevy Monza's flaws are clearly evident in this Wikipedia article. Another Chevy disaster (according to a colleague) was the 1980 Chevrolet Citation. Personally I remember the Ford Pinto and the AMC Pacer (which I thought was real nice)....:-)

| Any list of cars that doesn't include the Chevy Monza is incorrect. As a kid, I bought one, thinking it was a nice combo of looks and affordability. Ooops. So many things wrong. One example: I learned to always carry a spare clutch cable, as the path designed for it was so torturous that they were constantly abrading and popping. I got good at quickly replacing it. Then, there was the v8 (luckily, naive me bought the v6). You had to drop or pull the engine to get to the back two spark plugs. Don't get me on about how bad the interior was and how much of it fell apart. A truly awful car!
