Worst Cars Ever Made

July 13th 2009 12:33
worst cars - ford edsel
Biggest Flop: 1958 Ford Edsel
Although this was actually a pretty decent vehicle, it failed because Ford hyped it as a super-powered car of the future, which it wasn't. Some automotive historians have speculated that it was the ugly-as-sin vertical grill that doomed the car because it turned off consumers.

Chevy Corvair - Terrible cars
Greatest Lemon: 1961 Corvair
Where should we start? The placement of the heavy engine behind the rear axle caused the car to spin out. In addition, the Corvair constantly leaked oil, its heating system occasionally filled the cabin with toxic fumes, and the steering column was a solid piece, which tended to skewer drivers in accidents. Way to go, Chevy! The ad above looks nice though
