What is the worst car you’ve Never owned?
Offhand I would say a Jugo.

any of the 7 new Mazdas my parents have owned over the last 10-12 years.
Dad keeps pushing me to get one because "they are great cars and you know you like it." They are uncomfortable and the ergonomics suck balls. Plus, if they are so great, why is he always bitching about electrical gremlins, software glitches, and recalls to replace oil burning engines and no parts to do the job? Every one of his cars has spent no less than 6 weeks per year in the shop. Current remedy is to get a free quart of oil every month from the stealership. Sure....great car. Of course I want to buy one |

2018 gmc 1500 Denali .. piece of shit. Should’ve known better but it was like $20k off sticker . Worst part is that I traded in a perfect Toyota Sequoia for it.

1982 Datsun diesel truck.
Blew out front ball joints during 1st year and Datsun refused to cover it under warranty because I had aftermarket wheels (with correct specs in all regards). Then the driver seat started breaking springs and they refused to cover it as well. I damn near drove it onto the dealer lot and set it on fire but a buddy offered to take it off my hands. And he did |

I have to say my 1996 Impala..........I think I just got a lemon, but it was in the shop 22 times in 40k miles........everything from coolant gelling in the passageways causing no heater.....(they never solved at dealer) to a 1 inch paint drip from the corner of the hood on delivery (no bullshit Stevie Wonder must have been inspecting) to oil sending unit going out, to unmachined spot on rim (again SW inspecting?)....last time the heater stopped working, I went straight to Ford and traded in an on Expedition......got good trade $$...........they had a customer waiting for one.....well he got one with no heat.
A shame too, because I enjoyed the performance and ride a lot. |

I was toying with the idea of buying a Dodge Rampage new in about 1980-81. I liked the look and size as a 21 year old with dirt bikes. Then they started coming into the shop and I changed my mind. Haven't seen one in over 30 years, and here nothing rusts.

Never owned but really wanted was a 97 Z28 Camaro. I had a 94 V6 Camaro that was a huge pile of shit and everything I read about the Z28's was that they were even more unreliable lol.

I've had a few Corvettes, a Mercedes & a Porsche.
Corvette turned me on to German Engineering as Corvettes look cool but they're built like shit. Just my two cents |

I considered an AMG or M-series when I bought my 2005 CTS-V, glad I only considered them.
The 2005 CTS-V was a legend on the forums, 383 LS1, Maggie 112, 550/560 and did third-gear rolling burnouts. |
