I started driving in the early 70s.

My first car was a 1960 VW Bug. Second car, 1973 Super Bug. Third car 1974 914 2.0 Fourth car, 1986 El Camino. Fifth car, 1895 911 Carrera. Of those 5 cars I still own the Elky and the 911.

So my worst car I guess was the 1960 VW. 36 HP is scary slow and with 125,000 miles it was likely 25 HP. No AC and pitiful heater and pitiful brakes. No gas gauge at all.

Best is a toss up between my two current cars. I have personally put over 300,000 miles on the Elky and just 90,000 on the 911 since I bought it. Both are worth more than I paid for them.

Now I have to admit my list is slanted a bit. My wife has had several cars in the 25 years we have been married and my name is on the title so technically they are my cars, but I consider them to be her cars. Right now she has a 2017 Porsche Macan. She is almost up to 600 miles on it.
