1991 Chrysler LeBaron

The convertible roof was torn and the back window was hot glued into place.
The side windows leaked, so when it rained I literally had a few gallons of water where the top sits down.
Oh yeah, the automatic convertible top was me using pliers to detach the top from the body of the car and having to force it down.
The little back windows didnt work, so they were in an upright position all the time.
The motor had bad lifters and made this horid "tick tick tick tick BAM" sound and got faster and louder with higher RPMs.
The car was an ugly blue with rust spots.

Doing valet parking gave me all kinds of car horror stories, but the worst car I ever had to endure was a Subaru Rex.

I was living in Japan and driving a Honda (US Acura) Vigor, which is a large car by Japanese standards. However, anytime I took it in for service, they'd loan me whatever was available. Once I got the pleasure of driving a Subaru Rex for a weekend. At 660 cc, the engine was about 1/4 the size of the Vigor's and the Subaru's 42 hp was about 1/5 that of the Vigor. Not to mention, I could look out the windshield and see the ground directly in front of the car. I drove it home and parked it for the weekend.

A 1986 Nissan Multi was probably the worst car I've ever driven:

Years ago there was a Renault/AMC "marriage" that produced a monstrosity called the 'Encore'.

My buddy and I rented one when out in Colorado sking. Granted, high altitude, but this POS would slow down to 40mph whenever it hit an uphill grade, even a grade as small as 1%. Sorry no pics.

We renamed the Encore the "Uncar".

88 firechicken automatic. Headers, valvebody mod, sport suspension, sound system, and body work still couldn't make that thing good. that or my 98 pymouth neon beater but that car's kinda fun in it's own way so it's a tie.

I drove an '89 Dodge Colt with about 300,000 miles on it. I inherited it from Grandpa. It had a hole in the floor, Smelled like dead animals and kitty litter. I crashed it through a deck too so it was pieced back together with parts from pick-a-part.

All in all though it was a beast of reliability not pretty but it always worked
