Cars 10 Most Embarrassing Vehicles
10 Most Embarrassing Vehicles

Quote:
It’s always a risk making judgments based on the initial exposure to a car, and sometimes a vehicle’s ultimate crappiness only reveals itself with the fullness of time. We’re all subject to hype for something that seems new, different, and maybe even better, and in this business, we all feel the crushing pressure to be timely, amusing, and authoritative. Being wrong is always a risk. Still, here are ten award winners for which somebody needs to apologize.

1983 Renault Alliance


2002 Ford Thunderbird


1971 Chevrolet Vega


1997 Cadillac Catera


1985 Merkur XR4Ti


1997 Chevrolet Malibu



1990 Lincoln Town Car



1980 Chevrolet Citation



1974 Ford Mustang II


1995 Ford Contour/Mercury Mystique

Embarrassing? I'd drive most off those. .... Have driven half of them. The Vega was cool. The Chevette should be on there.

Where's the LeCar, the Yugo, the Ford Aspire and the Pinto?
Actually, my first car was a Pinto, so, they're cool.

I drove past the bombed out Yugo factory in 1995ish when I was in the former Yugoslavia. One of our guys owned a Yugo, he wanted to pick up spare parts! LOL!
