Also include your reason why you added that car to the list.

[1D4LV]

bro, you mean personally owned cars?

if yes, mine are:

Worst:
1. My current Pizza. Bakit? Daming problema sa suspension. Bago naayos, kalaki ng nagastos ko.

[ghosthunter]

Ssangyong Stavic - ugly at any angle of view.

You don't have to own it to label it bad, worst or ugly.

[tidus1203]

Same with 14DLV, I was also going to say the Pizza Lancer for the very same reason and I switched it into a Civic.

Chevy Venture 3.0L A/T

-consumes gasoline like there is no tomorrow in city driving
-spare parts only available from casa, and most are on-order basis.
-spare parts costs as if made from solid gold.

[tidus1203]

Those old Korean vans like the Besta and the Grace and even that wanabee Mercedes Istana UGLY!!

[ghosthunter]

Toyota Avanza

Ride/handling quality - so bad as if the handling was made from tofu! Quick turns would result in a feeling as if the car would tip over to it's side.

Interior build quality - I was surprised this was made by Toyota. Even some china cars had better interior build quality!

Noise insulation - comparable to a truck.

[tidus1203]

Toyota Liteace. Grabe you will definitely tip over if you attack a turn at 60kph Small tires, tall body ugh.... Madalas pa mag overheat!

A few that i've owned/driven:

1. 1983 Ford Laser, 4-Dr, 5 speed MT 1.5 li - every other day, it was in the shop for some niggling defect. Constantly worrying about overheating and the clutch fluid being totally drained from the reservoir.

2. 1991 Mitsubishi Lancer GLX 1.5 li - can't count the number of times this car wouldn't start --- after replacing the battery, starter motor, solenoid etc. was also the victim of a premature overhaul of the engine

3. 1994 Daewoo Racer Eti (pawis steering, pawis everything) 1.5 li - the reason why I've never driven or bought a Korean brand of vehicle again. Poor fit and finish, plus it had the vaguest manual tranny (some gears were just too long). Not to mention the fact that the local Daewoo distributorship/dealer (Quisumbing) subsequently withdrew from the local market after a dispute with Daewoo Motors of Korea

Some bad cars according to their owners whom I know personally:

4. Nissan California (I forget what year)

5. Nissan Sentra Box Type 1991-1993

6. Volkswagen Caravelle - sobra hirap daw mag source ng parts and consumables

honda civic & nissan vanette

Jeep Wrangler Rubicon

suck-tastic vehicle at everything a normal car should do and have.

-seats which leads your head to hit the built-in rollcage.
-rollcage wrapped with plastic which as just as hard as the metal they are supposed to protect your head from hitting.
-suspension which is hard enough to shake the fillings out of your teeth and then shake your teeth out of your skull if you hit anything bigger than a peanut on a glass smooth road. Pregnant women beware!
-throttle/engine response similar to driving the Titanic.
-driver vision handicapped by extra thick windshield frame.
-driver vision of the front length deceiving by the sudden drop-off of the hood. Actual vehicle is 1 foot longer than you can perceive.
-removable roof seems to be made from the lids of cheap plastic ice chests! Mattel makes toys better than this!
-engine hood secured only by hood latches. Don't be surprised if you wake up and your entire engine has been stolen during the night.



-power window switch controls installed as far from the windows they control.
-Speaker installation seems to be inspired by Sarao Jeepney Philippines.
-horn "button" on the wheel nearly impossible to push to honk until you have long driven past the reason why you need to honk your horn. Simply shouting out the window is much quicker but remember first that the window controls are mounted between the A/C vents on the dashboard.

+1 on Stavic...still gives me goosebumps when I see one!

[coiter]

ugly cars - parang frankenstein. iba ibang body parts na pinagkakabit kabit na lang:

all Ssangyong vehicles (except siguro MB100. ok naman looks nya as a van)
Daewoo Racer and Cielo

[coiter]

yeah this thing is really "BAD"! i want one!

[niky]

Besides the Chevy Venture... what else is there?

The Crosswind... hmmm...

Absolutely no power...

Which is good... because the brakes are pure sh**...

Belches smoke like a delivery truck...

Rides like a delivery truck...

Handles like a delivery truck, too...

Has stone-age plastic and interior fitment... (I'm still torn on whether this is as bad as a delivery truck... I've ridden in some that were actually better)

Rattles to bits after a few years... door hinges come out of alignment because the steel used for the body is so soft... the fittings rattle apart... the electricals are buggy... and... well... would you trust yourself to one in a crash? Would probably get 0/5 stars on every crash test known to man.

----

And yet, I can't let go of ours... it's too... damn... useful... :hysterical: ...10-12 km/l every day... survives missed oil changes... (not like my cousin's Toyota, that died after missing just one) can drink straight grease and still survive.... that'll do, pig, that'll do.

plus 1 into sir niky's comment for the crosswind, one owner here. Kung hindi lang kailangan pang karga iba kukunin ko auto. Though subok ko na sa kargahan.

[Majongero]

Di ko alam talaga kung bakit pangit na pangit ako sa oto na to noon pa.

[niky]

Hey... that was a great engine.... too bad it wasn't a pretty car... but it was a great engine.

[Tifosi]

Di ko alam talaga kung bakit pangit na pangit ako sa oto na to noon pa.

The shape sucks yes, it's hard to tell if it's coming or going But I agree that it has a great engine hehe.

+1 din sa Stavic! Mukhang anak ng van at SUV hehe, FRANKENCAR

+1 din sa Avanza, grabe, alog utak ko dun, talo pa Jimny ko!

FUGLY cars on my list (personal opinion ko lang to, no personal attacks meant):

Subaru B9 Tribeca


What's with that grille??? May nakasabay ako sa EDSA last week, at napailing na lang ako sa design.

BMW X6


Yes it's a BMW, but c'mon, what's the point of an SUV Coupe??? If I wanted an SUV, I'd buy the X5, if I wanted the coupe, I'd get a 3-series coupe, or a Z4 coupe.
