Many Deloreans sold in Europe ran perfectly fine. it was those sent to the US that suffered due to a regulator system installed in the car that hampered its performance. As of today most Deloreans on the road are no longer hampered by this system and run quite well
Pinto is number one because Ford refused to do anything about the fuel tank problem. It was too expensive to fix them, so they opted to pay the lawsuits instead. Let 'em burn. That's just sad.
TC Ford should have been convicted of manslaughter because of the three girls in their Pinto Judy, Lynn and Donna burned to death after their Pinto blew up in a rear end collision in Indiana.
It's too bad- the power train was decent, handling ok.. as you pointed out, Ford balanced thier bottom line against the charred corpses of thier Pinto buyers. Truly unforgivable- yet it seems every manufacturer does this at some point. GM- ignition switches. Takata airbags. Corvair rear suspension. Every electric car made with highly flammable/ explosive lithium ion batteries that can instantly shoot out 2000' jets of fire opon rupture or shorting out.
Are you trying to say the DeLorean was good? It was an absolute blight of a car. A coke fueled fantasy car from a convicted drug baron. Just because it was in Back to the Future doesn't mean squat.
Back in the 70's, my dad bought and East German with probably the worst name I have ever heard for a car, the Wartburg! It's failings didn't end there however. This monstrosity of a car (ours was a horrible mustard/beige colour), had a 3 cylinder two-stroke engine, which meant that whenever you filled it up, you had to buy a bottle of 2-stroke oil and pour that into the tank too. As you can imagine, the exhaust from this thing was toxic, and I believe that was what eventually stopped the UK government from allowing them to be imported. The interior was plastic throughout and barely fitted together. The most alarming thing about this car, which had a manual (stick shift) gearbox, was the inclusion of free-wheeling like a pushbike. This meant that, going downhill the engine had no braking effect at all. If the wheels were going faster than the engine, the drive chain was disengaged until you slowed to a speed where the engine caught up with the wheels. Living in a fairly hilly area, it was terrifying freewheeling down a steep, windy, hill reliant on only the Wartburg's fairly poor footbrake. Fortunately, the build quality was so poor that the bodywork dissolved to rust within just a few years and, much to my relief, my dad bought a crappy little Nissan which by comparison was a limo!
you can. one group takes parts that were never asembled and make them. so in essence you have a brand new Delorean made from parts right out of the factory. And the guys behind this did have an engine upgrade option.
OK, here's a joke: A man goes to hell, and finds an old friend from high school. He asks, “What are you doing here?!”. “I was on my way home after an extra-tiring day at work, when some jerkoff cut in front of me and started driving at a snail’s pace. When I sounded the horn, he just flipped me the bird. Then I unrolled my window and called him an asshole, and we pulled over. We got into a heated argument, and in a fit of rage I started kicking his back bumper.” He pauses for a few seconds. “I forgot he was driving a Pinto”.
It may be the ugliest car but not the worst. It was an average car, with weird interior and neat room inside it packed in the worst case one could think of. I always think they whisper "please kill me" if I see one. But they became so rare. They even were when they were brand new but I didn't see one for a couple years (!) now. And it is not that old...
If you want to see ugly, look at the Skoda Fabia - horrible "bullnose" front end, proportions are all wrong (tall and narrow). Horrible-looking, awful, ugly car. Only bought and driven by morons.
A friend of mine many years ago bought a '71 Vega. I was scared every time I rode in that thing. I always joked that he should have a bus schedule in the glove box. The aluminum block 2.3L inline four was absolutely horrible. I had one in a '77 Chevy Monza. No power, block prone to warping and cracking. Also, the Chrysler K cars from the '80s should have made this list.
Well, not every one. No Fords I know of...at least the 2.3 in my old '80 Fairmont just quit. Replaced the belt on the spot. Same for my '90 Corolla. Just had to get a tow. My '98 Corolla has a chain. My Villager van is also a non-interference engine, a requirement Ford made when they entered the joint project with Nissan to manufacture the Quest/Villager. That said, it's about the only good thing about the POS Hondas, OTOH.....
Jack Dedert Ok! B230? Good engine. The best of them was B23ET, turbo engine in 760. Forged pistons... Here in sweden popular in racecars. Some uses the 16v head to that block.
The Robin is a neat, if not very good, car. The DMC-12, however, is irredeemably bad. It was HORRIBLY underpowered, and, handled like absolute garbage. I used to like them, then I got to drive one.
Anon Nymous Say's the person that doesn't own a DeLorean, or ever driven one. I own one, drove several of them and I can say they are not slow, yet not fast. They have great power for what they are. They're peppy and very fun to drive!
Christian Dietrich besides, there are a lot of awesome cars that are slow, have crap handling, or are mechanically fucked from the factory, but that just kinda adds to their weird, quirky awesomeness. I love my current car, even though the transmission detonates every time you look at it funny.
Acura TL GTLM The DeLorean actually did handle very well for its set up, initially that is. At first the car was supposed to be lowered but then someone said they dont meet U.S. bumper height standards so they had to use a taller front spring which though off the handling. I lowered my DeLorean using stainless lower control arm, stainless rear radius arms. QA1 adjustable coilover with 10 way dampeners and poly bushings and changed the brakes from solid to drilled and slotted units with 4 piston calipers by Wilwood. Now its even better than originally it was going to be. I love that goofy ass car! I have tons of fun in it! Bow for it being junk? Those are people that actually dont know nothing about the car or ever driven one.
why is a reliant robin among your favorite? they look ugly! they move slower than a bike, they are anything but reliant, and they flip over. the delorean is understandable, it looks cool and was pretty quick off of the line (what watchmojo said about it doesn't sound right) and was a symbol of a greater time. when the world had finally boiled down in a ceasefire and everybody's biggest problem was what soda they were going to drink and then they would party all night long.
whats wrong with u...yugo is good car for 400$( now) in serbia, where i live...yugo is still rolling...i dont know, but yugo is 40 years old car and still works
At least they had a metal bumper. My boss has a Kia Soul and peeled off the back plastic bumper and there's no metal back there!As far as Vega I had a 74 as my first car. great on gas drank oil!Didnt have a mustang 2 but I did have a LTD2 which was horrible my folks had a K car that ran circles around it!
I've been in a amphicar, it's awesome, you drive it in the water and it just keeps going. The fact that it could drive on water makes it one of the top 10 BEST cars of all time.
it made a crappy car and a crappy boat. not really desirable as either. so you were in one... probably as a child when you wouldn't be aware of these issues, you just thought it was neat as hell and didn't note every decent boat around you was capable of 40+ knots and it was all the amphicar could do to go 7 knots without sinking. Look at the video of the thing, water just inches below the gunwales. that is scary.
7 knots is quite an Achievement for a Boat with High - Sea Hull or a Sailing - Boat,get clued up Jonny not all are Gerald Ford Aircraft Carriers.. ( and even that only goes 38 Top,Cruising more like 22..)
I agree. Mike Brewer and Edd China of the Wheeler Dealers television show bought and worked on one and loved it. Richard Rawlings of Fast and Loud also bought a rough one and sold it to a guy who already had one in top condition. They then took the one in top condition and went boating on Richard's restaurant lake! Richard loved it! So the Amphicar didn't go very well on the road and in water. I say so what? As long as you enjoy them. My 1964 British Ford Corsair didn't go very well but i still enjoyed owning and driving it. It looked a bit like a smaller version of a '64 Ford Thunderbird. Heck, my '71 Dodge Charger didn't go very well either due to a carburettor problem that I never bothered fixing but I still enjoyed it! In fact, that car was probably the best car AND the worst car that I've ever owned! The best cos it looked and sounded so good with its 360 cu in V8 engine and every drive in it was an adventure and it always got a crowd round it and also the worst because it kept falling apart! Mike, Edd and Richard like the Amphicar and so do I!
Yugo: “engine self destruct if and when the timing belt breaks” Obviously the writer for watchmojo isn’t a car person. A breaking timing belt dooms all engines. Do research next time watch mojo
Obviously JPK you are not a car person either. With respect to timing belts and camshafts/valves engines come in 2 types: Interference and non-interference. In a non interference engine if the timing belt breaks the cam and valves can be in any position and the valves will not contact the pistons. In this case there is no damage so all you do is install a new timing belt and start up the engine. I have personally done this with my own 2 hands on a 1986 Toyota Corolla GTS AE86 with 4AGEC engine. Engine ran fine afterwards. Now, if the engine is of the interference type and the timing belt breaks then severe engine damage is likely (though not certain) and a major inspection and rebuild may be in order.
I have a 2002 Pontiac Aztek with over 308,000 miles, and it still doesn't burn oil. It is still my daily driver, I commute 70 miles / day, to/from work. In my book, reliability, dependability and its usefulness are what REALLY counts.
i know a lad in the north of ireland with one with 7 miles on the clock also i also seen one that was fully restored on a tv show standard left hand drive sold for i think £41,000 at auction and if i remeber correctly only 32 cars were factory made left hand drive so it was rare than normal
+AE86 of Mt. Akina When they where new in the 70s. After bttf it was worth a lot. Also delorean was only a company for a few years which means not many cars are produced. Combine the 2 facts. Being an extremely popular car from a movie and not selling well. High demand and but not many cars.
test drove a Yugo in 84..interior panels would pop loose at random. oh..? someone on mojo watched 60 minutes about pinto issues? because those of us who lived the era knew pintos as utterly dependable workhorses! loved them! the snazziest cars in family..big bro had yellow sporter..Mom had gorgeous red station wagon Pinto. they'd get banged around on roads..yanked outa snow banks and always ran!
Did you knew that the fiat multipla was originally made in the 50s and was a really good van very ahead of it's time,the one that everybody hates is the 1999 remake,its designer made other really weird cars
The Delorean looked cool, it's exterior was designed by Giugiaro after all, but was crap on everything else. The Multipla had a "unique" look, but was an excellent family car.
Fuck now that I have watched this one video I'm going to be bombarded with recommendations from their stupid channel! Why did I even watch this video? I knew it was going to be terrible.
My mom once had a dodge neon, I swear this thing was made from a shopping cart. I forget what year it was made from, but the engine was constantly needing heavy maintenance.
My first car was a 77 Chevy Vega Hatchback, puke brown. Admittedly I got it used (as in Rode Hard and put away Wet) but still it was a nightmare. There were only two good things about that car, it got great gas-mileage (when it ran) and it was absolutely guaranteed never to get stolen! I even tested that out once, one night I parked the car on the street (not a good street). left the keys in the ignition, the door cracked open, and a sign on the roof saying "Steal Me!". Next morning I came out and sure enough, somebody stole the sign.
yeah there was a problem with some thing on the Car ,but it is nothing you can't fix , Check out season 1 of "for the Love of Cars" ...... a great Car !
I agree, depending o the engine it remains a long lasting car, has actual decent performance, and with the adequate tuning, and less clumsy stock parts it's... probably closer to a AE86 on many aspects or a Golf GT turbo equivalent o a little porsche. in fact it remains amongst the few, rare but decent cars of the eighties, a good ratio of electronics and not too much eco-safe shit by design.
They were awful cars. My dad worked at the plant in Dunmurry and said the fibreglass body was full of hairline cracks held together by the stickybacked stainless steel skin.
We actually had three Pintos at one time or another. They were all just used locally for commuting, but they gave us good service. We never got hit in the rear, though. LOL
Two things I'll say, first the Edsel was a good car and has no business being mentioned at all. Second the Yugo is easily the worst car, I rather drive the Pinto.
YES pinto was WAY better, shouldnt have even been on the list. the edsel they showed was the 2nd & final edition. edsels were roadworthy, the 1st edition just had that toilet seat grille. yugo was crap. these guys dont know anything, they thought they'd read something somewhere that pintos blow up
I was in a car accident last week. I was driving a Nissan Murano and t-boned a Prius. I'm missing part of my bumper and my headlight is driven into the body of my car. The Prius has some body damage by the passenger door, making it difficult to open. It will likely cost significantly less to fix their car than mine. I will never talk shit about a prius again.
Shawn Hernandez Non-car guy? Is that really a thing? Btw, I’m a woman. I also rebuilt a 66 Ranchero and a 68 mustang, bumper to bumper. My family also had one of each, both of those vehicles were terrible mechanically.
A guy walks into a car parts store and says "How about a rearview mirror for a Yugo?" The employee thinks for a minute, then says "that's a fair trade".
The DMC did not deserve to be on this list! If I understood right, it made the list because of the company lacking funding, a high price tag and less than impressive acceleration? Sorry, there are many many cars with much worse problems than that. Besides, while the car may not accelerate incredibly fast, it turns heads and will never rust.
Compared to other cars with the same price tag, the performance and handling is not on par and had you bought it new, your warrantee wouldn't have been worth much and build quality wasn't consistent. So yes, it had its issues but they are still bad ass cars.
Speaking of Yugo...I love how they had what amounted to two big white fog lights on the back of the car...I guess to be able to back up in a blizzard...also...I remember living in Los Angeles back in the 1990's , and when the end was near for the Yugo, one dealer started offering the most desperate incentive I've ever heard of to get rid of their remaining inventory..."Buy one Yugo at the regular price ( $4,000 ) , and get a second Yugo FREE ! "
Sorry, but how is the first gen Toyota Prius not on here? ...It promised eco friendly blah blah blah, but the process of making one car did more damage to the environment than producing 20 normal cars, and its promise of 50 - 60 MPG was a lie, actual real life testing proved that it would struggle to get more than 35 MPG....and thats just amongst some of the flaws
I always find all these newer fuel efficient cars to be a joke. "OMG it can get 30, 35, 40 mpg WOW!" Yeah....thats nice cars have been doing 40 mpg back in the 70s and 80s and I'm sure earlier, and with all this new tech car companies have managed to get the same or less then advertise it as a new amazing feat. They should have been forced out of business after only getting 35mpg with a hybrid.
I bought a 1984 Civic hatchback new and over 17 years put 242,000 miles on it before I traded it in for $1000 credit. It was a 5 speed manual and averaged 35-45 mpg the whole time. Once it hit 47mpg on a freeway trip.
The Bushwacker almost all over head cam engines are what we call interference motors if rubber belt(not all use rubber some are chain drivin) breaks the valves contact the pistons usually just locking the motor which for a months salary you can fix with all new top end.but in some engines can damage crank shaft then you might as well buy a new engine or used .the normal rubber belt should be replaced around 60,000 miles
Yup. I learned to drive in my parents’ Pinto, and then my first car (which I bought in 1987) was a 1976 Vega. I can attest to the oil burning from the crappy aluminum block. I could drive the 200 km (125 miles) from Toronto to Kingston on less than a third a tank of gas, but I’d burn through 2 litres (2 quarts) of oil! The good news? I only paid my neighbour $50 for the Vega so I loved it!
Where's the Trabant (the cutting edge of 1960s East German engineering)? And the Renault Dauphine? And the dreaded Austin Allegro/Morris Marina twins? You don't mention any cars not sold in the U.S. (except for the Reliant Robin) - bad cars are made world-wide!
As an owner of a DMC-12 DeLorean, I absolutely love it! The only issue I have is indeed the slow pickup speed (Though mine has a Turbo in it, so she can really move when at speed). They solved the antenna issue after the first 200 or so cars (out of 9000).
Michael Anderson in all seriousness, didnt they have an issue with people getting trapped in the car because of the doors? doesn't that make you nervous?
I had late 80's ford tempo. It had an illustrated diagram of the car near the stick shift with little red lights on it that would blink to show you what shitty part on that shitty car was about to shit out on you.
Why the hate for the Pinto? Statistically it wasn't any more dangerous than any other small car at the time. The exploding gas tanks were freak accidents: 27 cases (maybe) out of 1.5 MILLION cars.
It really wasn't any worse than any of its competitors. Nearly all other compact cars from the same time period had similar numbers of fuel tank explosions, the pinto just got unlucky enough to be the car that got stuck with a reputation for exploding.
"almost all gas tanks were mounted behind rear axel back then." But the Pinto had a habit of exploding when rear-ended. Other cars of the period are not noted for this
The Vega was just about the biggest piece of shit that ever prowled the roads. A kid I knew in high school had one, and it was a running joke about what went wrong with the car that week. It finally caught fire and burned up in the school parking lot. What a piece of shit.
We all did. I felt sorry for the kid, racing around trying to find a fire extinguisher to put out the fire as the flames consumed his little shit box of a car. Finally, he said, "Fuck it," and went over to the smoldering wreck and lit a joint on the smoking carcass of his shit box Vega.
damn. I always wanted a Vega. I had a 2002 Honda Accord Loaded v6. I love it. Sadly i crashed into my garage about 10 miles an hour and cracked the block and also then some wierd chemical fell down on it and lit the car on fire.
Why? WHY?! Why the hell they put the Saturn Ion?! There's one good thing: Dent-Resistant Side Panels! This is stupid. It should have been the Nissan Sunny.
My worst car choices throughout my 66 years: 1) Volkswagen bus. Gutless and threw a rod. 2) Chevy Citation. What a piece of shit. 3) 2000 Ford Explorer. Never buy the first of a new version of anything.
I agree with the VW Bus. I used to drive a 85 T3 - the thing is iconic and everything, and I loved it, still do, but objectively, it's one of the worst pieces of shit ever made. There's two types of parts in it - the ones that are constructed badly so they will break before they rust, and those that rust. That being said, my mom still has the car. It's got 672.000 km on it, the fourth engine, the second gearbox, and the body has been welded every other year. Yes, it's worth some money, but the yearly cost of keeping it in this condition are about the same as the increase in value, if not more. But this one serves as an example that every car will live forever if you're willing to pay the price for that. And despite it being a piece of crap, I still like it and I will take it on a Scandinavia tour this year. Which probably sums up every experience ever made with a T2 or T3.
I think it's funny when she says Yugo lacked ingenuity by still using carburetors as late as 1990. The last carbureted vehicle sold in the U.S. market was a Subaru Justy. Even though the Justy was still optioned with fuel injection starting as early as 1989, the carb'd version actually exceeded emissions standards and sold as late as 1992. It also had nearly the same output as it's injected sibling. The fact that the Justy had 80% more hp than the Yugo in a smaller displacement engine AND more than double the fuel economy tells me that still took a lot of ingenuity. Yugo just wasn't trying. And when the Metro/Swift, Festiva, Charade, and the Justy all came up, Yugo didn't stand a chance. Yes, they were ALL short-lived models, but they helped propel the subcompact market forward.
You don't buy a Delorean for performance, you buy it purely for looks and because if you manage to hit 88mph, you're gonna see some serious shit.
Well, they did market it as a sports car back then, which would imply higher performance than it actually has.
Many Deloreans sold in Europe ran perfectly fine. it was those sent to the US that suffered due to a regulator system installed in the car that hampered its performance. As of today most Deloreans on the road are no longer hampered by this system and run quite well

My parents owned a Chevette. It was a happy day in the household when it was totaled while sitting outside the house.
Fuck it. I still want a Delorean, and it better come with a kilo of cocaine in the trunk.
You can get one cheap. They are terrible quality cars so people are eager to get rid of them for a low price.
Caleb Hu Seems like you could rebuild it with a different engine.
you can. one group takes parts that were never asembled and make them. so in essence you have a brand new Delorean made from parts right out of the factory. And the guys behind this did have an engine upgrade option.

It may be the ugliest car but not the worst. It was an average car, with weird interior and neat room inside it packed in the worst case one could think of.
I always think they whisper "please kill me" if I see one. But they became so rare. They even were when they were brand new but I didn't see one for a couple years (!) now. And it is not that old...
yeah, I think the original Multipla deserved a mention just for its awful visual design.
Thats just ugly, not a truely awful car, you can still have an ugly car that functionally is a great car, see Pontiac Aztek.
If you want to see ugly, look at the Skoda Fabia - horrible "bullnose" front end, proportions are all wrong (tall and narrow). Horrible-looking, awful, ugly car. Only bought and driven by morons.

*Pulls into service station with Chevy Vega*...could you fill up the oil and check the gas ?

The aluminum block 2.3L inline four was absolutely horrible. I had one in a '77 Chevy Monza. No power, block prone to warping and cracking. Also, the Chrysler K cars from the '80s should have made this list.
Self destructing engine when timing belt got off!? Almost every modern engine does!
Well, not every one. No Fords I know of...at least the 2.3 in my old '80 Fairmont just quit. Replaced the belt on the spot. Same for my '90 Corolla. Just had to get a tow. My '98 Corolla has a chain. My Villager van is also a non-interference engine, a requirement Ford made when they entered the joint project with Nissan to manufacture the Quest/Villager. That said, it's about the only good thing about the POS
Hondas, OTOH.....
Jack Dedert Ok... Some of Volvo's B series of engines vill not self destruct too.
Have one of those in the family, too...'92 240 Wagon
Jack Dedert Ok! B230?
Good engine. The best of them was B23ET, turbo engine in 760. Forged pistons... Here in sweden popular in racecars. Some uses the 16v head to that block.
huh? I know alot of people who went through timming belts in the 90s, engines didn't blow up
I see 2 of my favorite cars on this list: the Reliant Robin and DeLorean DMC-12.
The Robin is a neat, if not very good, car. The DMC-12, however, is irredeemably bad. It was HORRIBLY underpowered, and, handled like absolute garbage. I used to like them, then I got to drive one.
Anon Nymous Say's the person that doesn't own a DeLorean, or ever driven one. I own one, drove several of them and I can say they are not slow, yet not fast. They have great power for what they are. They're peppy and very fun to drive!
Christian Dietrich besides, there are a lot of awesome cars that are slow, have crap handling, or are mechanically fucked from the factory, but that just kinda adds to their weird, quirky awesomeness. I love my current car, even though the transmission detonates every time you look at it funny.
Acura TL GTLM The DeLorean actually did handle very well for its set up, initially that is. At first the car was supposed to be lowered but then someone said they dont meet U.S. bumper height standards so they had to use a taller front spring which though off the handling. I lowered my DeLorean using stainless lower control arm, stainless rear radius arms. QA1 adjustable coilover with 10 way dampeners and poly bushings and changed the brakes from solid to drilled and slotted units with 4 piston calipers by Wilwood. Now its even better than originally it was going to be. I love that goofy ass car! I have tons of fun in it! Bow for it being junk? Those are people that actually dont know nothing about the car or ever driven one.
why is a reliant robin among your favorite? they look ugly! they move slower than a bike, they are anything but reliant, and they flip over. the delorean is understandable, it looks cool and was pretty quick off of the line (what watchmojo said about it doesn't sound right) and was a symbol of a greater time. when the world had finally boiled down in a ceasefire and everybody's biggest problem was what soda they were going to drink and then they would party all night long.
The Reliant Robins were popular because you could drive one on a motorbike licence. They did make a 4-wheel called the Kitten.
The kitten was also shit. Kitten, what the fuck?
@@shifty2755 The Reliant Kitten was and still is a beast.

I've been in a amphicar, it's awesome, you drive it in the water and it just keeps going. The fact that it could drive on water makes it one of the top 10 BEST cars of all time.
it made a crappy car and a crappy boat. not really desirable as either. so you were in one... probably as a child when you wouldn't be aware of these issues, you just thought it was neat as hell and didn't note every decent boat around you was capable of 40+ knots and it was all the amphicar could do to go 7 knots without sinking. Look at the video of the thing, water just inches below the gunwales. that is scary.
+john lucier it was obviously meant to be a novelty
7 knots is quite an Achievement for a Boat with High - Sea Hull or a Sailing - Boat,get clued up Jonny not all are Gerald Ford Aircraft Carriers.. ( and even that only goes 38 Top,Cruising more like 22..)
I agree. Mike Brewer and Edd China of the Wheeler Dealers television show bought and worked on one and loved it. Richard Rawlings of Fast and Loud also bought a rough one and sold it to a guy who already had one in top condition. They then took the one in top condition and went boating on Richard's restaurant lake! Richard loved it! So the Amphicar didn't go very well on the road and in water. I say so what? As long as you enjoy them. My 1964 British Ford Corsair didn't go very well but i still enjoyed owning and driving it. It looked a bit like a smaller version of a '64 Ford Thunderbird. Heck, my '71 Dodge Charger didn't go very well either due to a carburettor problem that I never bothered fixing but I still enjoyed it! In fact, that car was probably the best car AND the worst car that I've ever owned! The best cos it looked and sounded so good with its 360 cu in V8 engine and every drive in it was an adventure and it always got a crowd round it and also the worst because it kept falling apart! Mike, Edd and Richard like the Amphicar and so do I!

Yugo: “engine self destruct if and when the timing belt breaks”
Obviously the writer for watchmojo isn’t a car person. A breaking timing belt dooms all engines. Do research next time watch mojo
Obviously JPK you are not a car person either. With respect to timing belts and camshafts/valves engines come in 2 types: Interference and non-interference. In a non interference engine if the timing belt breaks the cam and valves can be in any position and the valves will not contact the pistons. In this case there is no damage so all you do is install a new timing belt and start up the engine. I have personally done this with my own 2 hands on a 1986 Toyota Corolla GTS AE86 with 4AGEC engine. Engine ran fine afterwards. Now, if the engine is of the interference type and the timing belt breaks then severe engine damage is likely (though not certain) and a major inspection and rebuild may be in order.
I have a 2002 Pontiac Aztek with over 308,000 miles, and it still doesn't burn oil. It is still my daily driver, I commute 70 miles / day, to/from work. In my book, reliability, dependability and its usefulness are what REALLY counts.

Replace the DeLorean with the fiat multipla please
Did you knew that the fiat multipla was originally made in the 50s and was a really good van very ahead of it's time,the one that everybody hates is the 1999 remake,its designer made other really weird cars
The Multipla is kinda ugly,not bad so it shouldn't even be on here
What are you on about? The Multipla was chosen car of the year by Top Gear because it's so practical. "It's ugly" is what you should be saying.
The journalists all tried to hype up the multipla. We just called it the Platypus.
The Delorean looked cool, it's exterior was designed by Giugiaro after all, but was crap on everything else. The Multipla had a "unique" look, but was an excellent family car.

The gremlin. Yeah anyone remember that thing
An ugly car but they were mechanically good cars.
My first car was a 77 Chevy Vega Hatchback, puke brown. Admittedly I got it used (as in Rode Hard and put away Wet) but still it was a nightmare. There were only two good things about that car, it got great gas-mileage (when it ran) and it was absolutely guaranteed never to get stolen! I even tested that out once, one night I parked the car on the street (not a good street). left the keys in the ignition, the door cracked open, and a sign on the roof saying "Steal Me!". Next morning I came out and sure enough, somebody stole the sign.
the DeLorean is so awesome
yeah there was a problem with some thing on the Car ,but it is nothing you can't fix , Check out season 1 of
"for the Love of Cars" ...... a great Car !
I agree, depending o the engine it remains a long lasting car, has actual decent performance, and with the adequate tuning, and less clumsy stock parts it's... probably closer to a AE86 on many aspects or a Golf GT turbo equivalent o a little porsche. in fact it remains amongst the few, rare but decent cars of the eighties, a good ratio of electronics and not too much eco-safe shit by design.
They were awful cars. My dad worked at the plant in Dunmurry and said the fibreglass body was full of hairline cracks held together by the stickybacked stainless steel skin.
Yeah, I would remove the DeLorean from this "worst" list :D
yeah and the Ford Mustang in the honorable mentions.. O_O
2 of the coolest looking cars in my opinion
the ford pinto is worse that a three wheeled wheelbarrow ? your credibility is worse then your editing
A three wheeled wheelbarrow does not have a gas tank two inches away from the rear bumper thus it won't blow up like a Pinto.
the ford pinto is responsible for many more deaths due to the car blowing up than the robin

why? the delorean was an unreliable car
***** im biased with it back to the future is my fav film and delorians are my fav type of car cause of it

no no mistake at all, it was a crap car
Two things I'll say, first the Edsel was a good car and has no business being mentioned at all. Second the Yugo is easily the worst car, I rather drive the Pinto.
YES pinto was WAY better, shouldnt have even been on the list. the edsel they showed was the 2nd & final edition. edsels were roadworthy, the 1st edition just had that toilet seat grille. yugo was crap. these guys dont know anything, they thought they'd read something somewhere that pintos blow up
The Lexus SC 430 was well built and reliable so although it was a miss it’s defiantly NOT the worst car of all time.

The Prius isn't a bad car but a boring one.
Just boring
I was in a car accident last week. I was driving a Nissan Murano and t-boned a Prius. I'm missing part of my bumper and my headlight is driven into the body of my car. The Prius has some body damage by the passenger door, making it difficult to open. It will likely cost significantly less to fix their car than mine. I will never talk shit about a prius again.

ya ok
The DMC did not deserve to be on this list! If I understood right, it made the list because of the company lacking funding, a high price tag and less than impressive acceleration? Sorry, there are many many cars with much worse problems than that. Besides, while the car may not accelerate incredibly fast, it turns heads and will never rust.
Compared to other cars with the same price tag, the performance and handling is not on par and had you bought it new, your warrantee wouldn't have been worth much and build quality wasn't consistent. So yes, it had its issues but they are still bad ass cars.
Speaking of Yugo...I love how they had what amounted to two big white fog lights on the back of the car...I guess to be able to back up in a blizzard...also...I remember living in Los Angeles back in the 1990's , and when the end was near for the Yugo, one dealer started offering the most desperate incentive I've ever heard of to get rid of their remaining inventory..."Buy one Yugo at the regular price ( $4,000 ) , and get a second Yugo FREE ! "
The Trabant 601 beats them all...
Sorry, but how is the first gen Toyota Prius not on here? ...It promised eco friendly blah blah blah, but the process of making one car did more damage to the environment than producing 20 normal cars, and its promise of 50 - 60 MPG was a lie, actual real life testing proved that it would struggle to get more than 35 MPG....and thats just amongst some of the flaws
I always find all these newer fuel efficient cars to be a joke. "OMG it can get 30, 35, 40 mpg WOW!" Yeah....thats nice cars have been doing 40 mpg back in the 70s and 80s and I'm sure earlier, and with all this new tech car companies have managed to get the same or less then advertise it as a new amazing feat. They should have been forced out of business after only getting 35mpg with a hybrid.
Danny Hampton I hear ya man
Yeah the old civic hatch backs from the mid to early 90's were easily doing almost 40mpg and came in stick as well.
I bought a 1984 Civic hatchback new and over 17 years put 242,000 miles on it before I traded it in for $1000 credit. It was a 5 speed manual and averaged 35-45 mpg the whole time. Once it hit 47mpg on a freeway trip.
Not to mention trying to recycle the battery pack once it dies eventually, costly and does more environment damage than making it in the first place.

Don't most engines "self destruct" when their timing belt/chain goes?
Yeah, pretty much. That's why I love my Turbo Z, doesn't self-destruct when the timing belt goes
no dude
no, only engines where the pistons can hit the open valves
i think a lot of Mitsubishi's are the kind that crunch when the belt breaks
The Bushwacker almost all over head cam engines are what we call interference motors if rubber belt(not all use rubber some are chain drivin) breaks the valves contact the pistons usually just locking the motor which for a months salary you can fix with all new top end.but in some engines can damage crank shaft then you might as well buy a new engine or used .the normal rubber belt should be replaced around 60,000 miles
That boat car is actually kinda cool! 😅
Yup. I learned to drive in my parents’ Pinto, and then my first car (which I bought in 1987) was a 1976 Vega. I can attest to the oil burning from the crappy aluminum block. I could drive the 200 km (125 miles) from Toronto to Kingston on less than a third a tank of gas, but I’d burn through 2 litres (2 quarts) of oil! The good news? I only paid my neighbour $50 for the Vega so I loved it!

it also killed a lot of its owners
As an owner of a DMC-12 DeLorean, I absolutely love it! The only issue I have is indeed the slow pickup speed (Though mine has a Turbo in it, so she can really move when at speed). They solved the antenna issue after the first 200 or so cars (out of 9000).
Michael Anderson in all seriousness, didnt they have an issue with people getting trapped in the car because of the doors? doesn't that make you nervous?
The ONE list I do not agree with.
I owned a Ford Maverick,Red Pinto station wagon,That crazily underpowered lime green Camaro,and a couple of other beauties!
I had late 80's ford tempo. It had an illustrated diagram of the car near the stick shift with little red lights on it that would blink to show you what shitty part on that shitty car was about to shit out on you.
Why the hate for the Pinto? Statistically it wasn't any more dangerous than any other small car at the time. The exploding gas tanks were freak accidents: 27 cases (maybe) out of 1.5 MILLION cars.
2300cc wasn't tobad of motor.And i hate to break it to you almost all gas tanks were mounted behind rear axel back then.
It wasn't just the Pinto/Bobcat twins. I saw a fuel filler pipe ripped out of the tank when a Mercury Montego of that period got rear-ended.
The Ford Pinto. Giving a whole new meaning to the term Found On Road Dead.
It really wasn't any worse than any of its competitors. Nearly all other compact cars from the same time period had similar numbers of fuel tank explosions, the pinto just got unlucky enough to be the car that got stuck with a reputation for exploding.
"almost all gas tanks were mounted behind rear axel back then."
But the Pinto had a habit of exploding when rear-ended. Other cars of the period are not noted for this
The Vega was just about the biggest piece of shit that ever prowled the roads. A kid I knew in high school had one, and it was a running joke about what went wrong with the car that week. It finally caught fire and burned up in the school parking lot. What a piece of shit.
😂😂😂 I fucking died
We all did. I felt sorry for the kid, racing around trying to find a fire extinguisher to put out the fire as the flames consumed his little shit box of a car. Finally, he said, "Fuck it," and went over to the smoldering wreck and lit a joint on the smoking carcass of his shit box Vega.
damn. I always wanted a Vega. I had a 2002 Honda Accord Loaded v6. I love it. Sadly i crashed into my garage about 10 miles an hour and cracked the block and also then some wierd chemical fell down on it and lit the car on fire.

Cause the Saturn Ion had one of the worst recall lists of any GM vehicle EVER MADE.
My worst car choices throughout my 66 years: 1) Volkswagen bus. Gutless and threw a rod. 2) Chevy Citation. What a piece of shit. 3) 2000 Ford Explorer. Never buy the first of a new version of anything.
nobletea 3400 Yeah, but it still gets hard
VW Bus is very iconic, popular, and worth a tone of money restored.
TOTALLY AGREE on the Explorer.
I agree with the VW Bus. I used to drive a 85 T3 - the thing is iconic and everything, and I loved it, still do, but objectively, it's one of the worst pieces of shit ever made. There's two types of parts in it - the ones that are constructed badly so they will break before they rust, and those that rust.
That being said, my mom still has the car. It's got 672.000 km on it, the fourth engine, the second gearbox, and the body has been welded every other year. Yes, it's worth some money, but the yearly cost of keeping it in this condition are about the same as the increase in value, if not more. But this one serves as an example that every car will live forever if you're willing to pay the price for that.
And despite it being a piece of crap, I still like it and I will take it on a Scandinavia tour this year. Which probably sums up every experience ever made with a T2 or T3.

lmao..I worked at a Yugo dealership and went to move one on the lot.The stick shift broke off right in my hand
I think it's funny when she says Yugo lacked ingenuity by still using carburetors as late as 1990.
The last carbureted vehicle sold in the U.S. market was a Subaru Justy.
Even though the Justy was still optioned with fuel injection starting as early as 1989, the carb'd version actually exceeded emissions standards and sold as late as 1992. It also had nearly the same output as it's injected sibling.
The fact that the Justy had 80% more hp than the Yugo in a smaller displacement engine AND more than double the fuel economy tells me that still took a lot of ingenuity.
Yugo just wasn't trying. And when the Metro/Swift, Festiva, Charade, and the Justy all came up, Yugo didn't stand a chance. Yes, they were ALL short-lived models, but they helped propel the subcompact market forward.
