Best and worst and biggest dissapointment cars you ever drove
Can be just one for each. Best could be the most fun doesn't have to be the fastest or most expensive or some ---- like that. Best to you. Hell it could be a 89 Geo metro hatch running on just one cylinder with only reverse and four flat tires. Just whatever gave you a chubby, whatever gave you a scared turtle cause it was such a heap, or something that broke your hopes and dream after it turned out to be a big steamy pile. This has to be something you actually drove...be it yours..a friends or someone just let you drive it.

I drive probably 100 different cars a month and most dissapoint me in one way or another, but I hate my wifes 02 civic sport, driving it makes me want to hang myself. I think the new designer that honda got in 2000ish should be shot, he must have came from kia

mazdaspeed6. you'd figure 275hp and 280ft/lbs w/ AWD would be fun........ wrong. that car is a pig and sends no more than 35% to the rear (and thats only if the front is severely slipping) and since the Direct injection pump can only handle ~400 CRANK HP you need a gt3071 and methanol to hit 300whp and it is only marginally faster than a full bolt on stock turbo w/ meth

Re: Best and worst and biggest dissapointment cars you ever drove
biggest disappointment was my 93 sentra, i figured a 1.6 dohc had to be atleast decently quick right? wrong After I told my parents I wanted to sell it, I had them both drive it. After my step-father came back he told my mom they have to let me sell it "its slower than my old chevette i had"... I couldnt get up most hills with that thing
Two of the most fun cars I've driven was mike's 1983 monte carlo with a built to hell 350, ~350-400 whp, and tim's turbo b18 integra was fun as hell to drive too.

Re: Best and worst and biggest dissapointment cars you ever drove
Best I'd have to say was my second car which was a 91 Geo Tracker hardtop. That ****** took everything I threw at it and never let me down once. Tossed that ****** in 4wd and dropped the hammer a couple of time. Only thing that broke were the stock locking hubs but it still drove. Picked up new aftermarket locking hubs from JCwhitney and she kept on going. I think with some better tires and a small rhb5 that thing would of been a blast.
-Worst was a Geo Metro I bought. Driving home one night after work I was ------- around trying to race my friend. I slammed on my brakes and basically needed a whole front end alignment after that. Tie rod broke, and had to drive home with the wheel clock 90 degrees just to keep it straight. Sold it to a local redneck family for 100 bucks the way it was.
-Biggest dissapointment was a 350Z. The place I worked at had an outside place that would come in and work on their CNC drills. Well the tech was outside and I had to run to the other warehouse and told me to take his car. It was bone stock and just the base model. It felt cheesy as hell, rubber door panels, made a sound like it was constipated when I gave it gas but didn't do much. It ran fine like it wasn't tossing any CEL's but just didn't seem all that great. Yeah it was stock but for that much cash and it had well over 200 ponies.

the most suprisingly good car i have driven is an e92 335i. bone stock they make 285whp and 295ft/lbs not bad for a car rated at 300hp/305tq crank from the factory.
w/ dual 2.5" exhaust, a cheap intake(just a tube and filter, honda style) and tuning one guy put down 390Whp
