What's your least favorite car manufacturer?

I've heard people's views on different cars that suck in general, but what's your least favorite car manufacturer past or present in general? Any manufacturers that you find yourself dislikely alot or even hating?
My personal grudge is against mitsubishi. I don't really know why, but i think their cars have always been/will be hideous, unreliable, and i think this is one company that should have stuck to making TV's and VCR's....just curious about your opinions.

past would have to be the company who made Pacers, Gremlins, etc...

[84_GT350]

AMC made the Gremlin...but they also made the Rebel and the Javelin. Geo made the Pacer and they suck all around (what a coincidence...they're now owned by GM). My least favorite manufacturer would currently have to be Kiya. I mean...can't you put even a LITTLE perofmance into your cars?

I've had the opportunity over the years to drive a variety of vehicles.
Porche, Jaguar, Nissan, VW, Volvo, Mitsubishi, Saab, Honda, Ford, Chevy, Dodge/Plymouth, AMC.....

Based entirely on my preferences in driving:
I Utterly HATE Porches and Jags. Hondas are worthless. Mitsi's are Junk (we sell a LOT of Mitsubishi Cylinder Heads).

My favorite cars that I've ever driven:
(In order, best at top)
1973 AMC Javelin (Saleen buster)
1989 Ford Mustang (my lost GT)
1973 Plymouth Barracuda (Junker but FUN)
1994 Mazda B-4000 (Steers like a cow, but don't get stuck nowhere)
1986 VW Scirocco (VERY manueverable)

84-gt350 - Geo didnt make the Pacer, AMC did. And Geo isnt owned by GM. Well, it is, but it isnt really a car at all. A GEO is simply a Jap car sold at a chevy dealer with the name GEO on it. For example, Geo prism is toyota corrola, GEO metro is suzuki swift, GEO tracker is Suzuki samuri, you get the idea? This was simply a marketing tool developed by GM to sell quality japenese cars at a chevy dealership, so americans could buy a jap car, but feel good about it because they bought it from a chevy dealer. Yeah, another stupid thing to do by GM. Why dont they try making a decent car?

By the way, I hate GM cars. All of them are garbage.

Im surprised to see the honda haters hear. I hate ricers with fart pipes as much as the next guy, but it is pretty well accepted that Honda makes one of the best cars on the road today.

AMC? how could anyone dislike AMC! They made some real classics, like this Pacer X model.



Yep, this is me about a year ago. Had a couple of hours to kill when I spied this classic in the back lot of a "Slick Willie's Used Cars" car lot. Had my camera and I simply couldn't resist.

So, took this little guy out for a drive and took some of the senior pictures I always dreamed of. I called this one "Sunrise".

You should have seen the faces of some of the people looking on. Geez, I need help,

Hyundai, Kia, and Daewoo. Those are the
worst.
And then there is GM. But I would rather
drive a GM then the above.

[justjoe]

I absolutly HATE jeeps. I owned ONE jeep for ONE month i had to have been on the side of the road at least 20 times. I like pontiac okay but the aztec would have to be my second least favorite. that has to be the ugliest car i've ever seen!

[Topless In Texas]

THAT PIC IS TOO FUNNY!!!!! It reminded me, my grandmother used to have a Pacer many, many years ago!!!! I hated those HUGE windows. Reminded me of something the Jetsons would drive.

Anything made in South Korea (Daewoo and Hyundai). Two cars no one can spell.
I owned an AMC eagle once. Big junker. I'd drive down the road and literally hear pieces of car falling off. Drive shaft fell off once but it had soul. It smelled funny too.

[red82gt]

HONDA I hate honda! After 200,000km (120,000mi) all of my friends who own one of these have called me up to try and clean up the mess because the don't have the $1500 to get the thing fixed, not to mention corroded beyond salvation (this is a dry climate here and there is no salt used on the roads, either). I will not agree that they are one of the best roadcars, to me they feel like cheap pieces of tin and plastic, even the new ones.

My least favorite Jap manufacturer has to be toyota. They have this whole attitude like, "oooh, we japanese much better than you greedy American white devils." Yeah guys, just like everything else we invent you make it smaller and less powerful. Can you bastards even make a REAL truck??? Oh yeah, the Tundra. Bwahahahahahaha.

Kia's are kind of a joke, too. That name "Sportage" is about 5 years too late. I'm just waiting for them to come out with the "Bastage".

Now as for American, well at least with companies based in America, if you've even read my posts in the past about this and similar issues, you'll know I hate Chrysler like nothing else on Earth. Their sales pitch should be, "Cheap stupid cars for cheap stupid people." Come on, the only reason someone buys an Oh-Christ-ler is because they don't want something Japanese but still want an American car that's cheap. Key word: cheap. Reason? Less intelligent people make less money. Less money means less of a car. Result? A chrysler product. The resale value of ALL Chryslers is PATHETIC. My friend across the street has a car dealer for a dad, so he confirmed my suspicions about that.

Check this out. My job is selling parts right now (just to get me through college). I don't know if it's because I'm a kinda psychic or some 6th Sense $hit going on or what, but I can tell before a customer even tells me what kind of vehicle they have if they drive a Chrysler product. I BS YOU NOT! A good friend of mine just recently got into selling parts, too. He's basically finding the same thing. Strange, huh?

I really don't care if I offended anyone. I've hated Chysler since the K-car and since THEY INVENTED THE GOT-DAMN MINICANS THAT PLAGUE OUR HIGHWAYS!!!

HAHAHA, Capri well said. Chryslers are the biggest domestic POS's made. I'd never buy a chrysler, i had two friends that worked for a chrysler/dodge dealership they said the great thing about chrysler is that they'll never run out of work even when it's a slow season. Funny thing about chrysler......they have an alliance with, guess who, SHITSUBISHI. Yeah isn't it great all those Chrysler lasers (used to be a shitty daytona, then a mirror image of the shitty eclipse), K-cars, and other sh/t cans were sent out to roam the streets and clutter up the shoulder of the road. Throughout the 80's alot of crappy engines were made by shitsubishi to put in chrysler cars (many of which were K-cars). I completely forgot about chrysler, the benificiary of Shitsubishi's crappy japanese engineering.
