| Worst car on the road today? |
|
I've gotta say, the Chevy Malibu ('97-04) is the most horrendous piece of overrated shit that I've ever had the displeasure of driving. Haven't sampled the new '05, but I don't really expect much. Does GM just send all the good stuff over to Buick and Cadillac and slap Chevy bowties on the garbage stuff?
Ugliest? I'd have to say the Pontiac Aztec. Yeah, it's a head-turner, all right. Followed by loud outbursts of laughter.
Most boring: Anything from Ford, except for the Mustang and any fine-tuned Focus (still kinda ugly, though). They make Toyotas look like Chryslers.

closely followed by the new BMW 3 series. I can't stand the new BMW designs. The old ones were much better.

| 2. I've been really disappointed |

in the new Volvo's. Seem to have so many problems. We had them for years, they were a car that really lasted and now they just seem to live at the dealer from what I've seen.
Ugliest? Yep Aztec has got to be it. With all the choices out there why drive that?

Volvos are not what they used to be. My husband runs a small Volvo repair shop, and he often comments on the decline in quality. The company has also made it difficult for independent shops to obtain the new repair technology. Yet, I still love my '93 240.

| 4. Well, that's what happens when Ford gets hold of a car company. |
|
They did the same thing to Jaguar.

| 5. Jaguar was junk when they bought it. It's better now, but that's not saying much. |

A Toyota so bad, even Consumer Reports won't recommend it.
