TIME - 50 worst cars

Time magazines worst lists. The car descriptions are humorous. I've owned a few of the lemons and rode in more than 10.

The first detroit powered v8.



about the Yugo...
Built in Soviet-bloc Yugoslavia, the Yugo had the distinct feeling of something assembled at gunpoint. Interestingly, in a car where "carpet" was listed as a standard feature, the Yugo had a rear-window defroster — reportedly to keep your hands warm while you pushed it.

about the Pontiac Aztek...
I was in the audience at the Detroit auto show the day GM unveiled the Pontiac Aztek and I will never forget the gasp that audience made. Holy hell! This car could not have been more instantly hated if it had a Swastika tattoo on its forehead.
