The Best and Worst Car You Have Driven?
I thought I'd try a new thread here. What's the favorite car and least favorite car that you've driven?
Mine: Favorite: 458 Italia Least Favorite: PT Cruiser, (close behind is a 911 flachbau, it's impossible to reach the gas pedal for me) |
Favorite: 1969 (or was it a '68?) Dodge Dart GTS (340 hi-po V-8). Handled great for such a big car and had more power than I knew what to do with.
Honorable Mentions: My first car. 1964.5 Ford Mustang coupe. All the fenders were rusted out and the paint was terrible but it had a 200 Sprint straight-6 and a toploader transmission. And best of all, it was MINE! :) Mom's 1970 Buick Electra 225 with 455 V-8 and posi rearend that I got to drive when I was in HS. Drove like a boat but had lots of power. And a HUGE backseat. Look up "gas hog" in the dictionary and there will be a picture of that car. Least Favorite: early-'90s Dodge Spirit. Nice family car, so it fit my needs at the time, but no power and the suspension was terrible. |
Favorite: 1966 396 375HP El Camino. 4 speed with limited slip. That was a fun car. Followed closely by the Z and a 1968 MGB.
Least: 2008 Hyundai Elantra. Sewing machine engine, wallows like a pig in slop. |
While not terribly glamorous, I'll keep it to cars I've owned. I typically don't drive other people's cars and I don't let other people drive mine...end of story. I also don't test drive cars I can't afford...boring as that may be, I don't like to waste people's time.
Least: 1993 Chevy Camaro (V6)...what a dog Most: My 2014 Z |
Favorite: This one
Honorable Mention: 1987 Toyota Celica GT Worst (TIE): 2008 Dodge Caliber/200? PT Cuiser (thankfully, rentals; both cars should have been immolated and/or crushed into cubes) |
My worst has to be the Chevy Aveo hatch, that I rented while a new engine was being dropped in my old Accord. Absolutely nothing special about that car, plus it was yellow, I had no pride during that period in my life.
I haven't driven anything really special but I have had two 370s, with two cars in between, so the fact that I would go back to the Z definitely makes it my favorite. Sure, the '04 Cobra was faster in a straight line, but everything else about the car was ****. I don't know how Ford got away with using the same interior across two generations of cars. Thankfully, they seem to have redeemed themselves. |
Best vehicle I have had the chance to drive is my Z.
Worst vehicle '79 Dodge Aspen with a door that would open on right hand turns and had a padlock for trunk latch. brand new Kia Rio with 30 miles on it and the visor fell off turning out of dealership is right up there too. :icon17: |
Favorite for me is my Z NISMO of course!
A close second was my old Saturn Ion Redline. I know, I know, "It's a Saturn!", but that thing was a blast to drive! Least favorite was when I test drove a new (at the time) Mitsubishi Lancer OZ Rally Edition. I went in wanting to test a Lancer Rally-Art Edition (around 160-180 hp, if I remember correctly), but all they had was a couple OZ Rally Editions. I think those had around 120-140 hp. It was such a let down! |
Best: 458 italia or Aventador (totally different reasons)
Worst: Toyota Prius |

Best- Porsche 996 GT2 Honorable mention: Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari F430.
Worst- Chevy Aveo, Chevy spark...or sonic...whatever its called. It was a garbage rental car, the non-turbo one. The GT2 is a personal favorite of mine because of ZERO electronic aids. I've driven the faster 997 GT2 as well, and several 996/997 GT3's GT3RS', and non of them were as hardcore as the 996 GT2. That thing scared the hell out of me and I LOVED it |
Best for me is the Z, my friends 700whp cobra, Evo 8, E92 M3, a tuned RS4 and Mazdaspeed 6.
Second best are probably the S2k, rx8 and Evo X Least, Toyota the turtle Echo. The engineers at Toyota really had to try to make that piece of sh1t lol |

Best I've driven goes to Lamborghini Gallardo & Switzer P800 GTR (tie)
Worst and most hated by far is the Porsche Cayenne S. That thing is a POS more levels than I can mention. I'd rather drive a Versa again (which is actually really fun to boot around) |
