What Car Name and/or Car do you hate the most?

[19Charger68]

For instance, what in the name of heaven is a Yaris?  Worse than that a Scion.  Everytime I see one of those ugly boxes on wheels, I have this urge to ram it.  Thank goodness Mopars have at least kept names that make some kind of sense.  Oh, another one, Elantra - what in the heck is that?  Does it bug you as much as it does me?

Camaro ? What on earth is a Camaro ? Is it spainish for rusting pile of stink ? 

[TruckDriver]

Honestly, The ONLY car made right now that I like is the current Mustang. The rest mize well be all Scions   I must say though, I do like the new Challenger too when it comes out.

[Charger_Fan]

Today, Honda Elements suck more than usual for me. What a butt-ugly excuse for a vehicle.

Camaro is native American for "fix this Mother f'er again"

[chargerboy69]

For me it would be the Toyota Prius. $#!*y name, and a $%#&y looking car.

The number one choice for tree huggers everywhere. 

[Dans 68]

Don't hate anything. "Extreme Dislike "    comes to mind whenever a boxy looking suv wanabee drives by and my 7-yr old daughter is with me. She adores them for some awful reason.

Seems like every modern car's name is meant to sound like a small tourist-trap town in the Southwest.  Be it a real or imaginary one.

Camaro ? What on earth is a Camaro ? Is it spainish for rusting pile of stink ? 

Though the car's name was contrived with no meaning, Chevrolet researchers reportedly found the word in a French dictionary as variation of informal speech (slang) for "friend", "chum", or "companion."In some automotive periodicals before official release, it was code-named "Panther", however, the project designation for the Camaro was XP-836 and some early GM photos show the final Camaro body labeled "Chaparral".Automotive press asked Chevrolet product managers "What is a Camaro?", and they were told it was "a small, vicious animal that eats Mustangs".

camaro, c'mon you cant honestly tell me if the 69 camaro had a pentastar on the fender and a 340 it wouldn't be the other 70 cuda.

[The70RT]

67 - 69 Camaros are cool.....I don't care who you are ...everyone likes them. My first car was a Plymouth and my Charger I have had for 30 years and still I like them all...Chevy, Buick, Mustang whatever. They sure look better than any AMC product everyone has taken under their mopar wings....

I guess I'm not everyone . I would still rather own any AMC than a Chevy .

What car do I hate?? ALL RICERS!

[skip68]

I have an ORIGINAL 67' CAMARO! I am the second owner on it and plan to restore it (which won't take too much! ) to criuse with the Charger. IN FACT, I had this car Before Chuck had "his" charger, but,....... I let his building process go first, because I'm a perfect wife!!!!!!

Stop Knocking the Camaro's Guys!!!!!I'm just trying to keep a piece of history alive, and the Camaro goes to our daughter when I kick the bucket! Or son gets the Charger!

(P.S. My answer to the most hated car name/Brand............."KA-KA-KA-KIA!!!!!!!"  It's sounds like a Chia Pet commercial!!!! Hehehe!

camaro "or as those who own them and try to sell em spell it camero " is french for 'BUDDY or PAL " the camaro was to be originally called " PANTHER " but the nit wit wussy wimp execs at chevrolete thought it sounded to mean and would hurt sales they wanted a more friendly happy name . 

[hemihead]

I like Camaros a LOT myself. Mainly the '67 thru '91 Camaros. After that, I thought they got ugly. My favorite years are the '70 thru '81 Camaros. One thing for sure, there easier and cheaper to restore because of a lot more repro parts. Like I said before, as much as I love Mopar muscle, with the prices of them the way they are, and my income being what it is, I can't see myself ever owning one again. But I could afford to restore a Camaro, Trans Am or Monte Carlo SS.

[TK73]

Some good choices for worst...

my addition is "Citroen"... fugly little tin cans

[hemihead]

Now you are really beating on the French .

[TheGhost]

Hyundai.

I don't have enough time to mention them all, I'm very picky.

But if I had to pick just one to type here... it would be an AMC Ambassador

Sorry for anyone that has or likes them, but i've had nightmares of that thing sleeping under my bed

Yeah they look like a bar of soap with bumpers.

WTF is a VW "Thing"? Besides Ugly? Yeah, that's it, The VW Ugly Thing

I had a 78 Mark V that I truely loved and would be more than honored to own another one in the same condition... Man that was one sweet ride!

Thats another one that I used to own. I had a 71 Ambasador Police Interceptor that had the 401 Interceptor engine in it. My Dad hated that car because it was the only thing that he couldn't beat with his 69 Newport Custom with a 383. As bad as I hate to admit it, that 401 would eat up that 383 for lunch and spit the remains out the exhaust.

[CaptMarvel]

My least favorite cars were most anything made by GM during the 70's. Man, some of those big ol' Pontiacs, Olds, Caddys, Chevys and Buicks were hard on the eyes. Just watching Smokey & the Bandit last week and remembered Jackie Gleasons patrol car when they were new, what a waste of design paper and metal....If not for the 68-72 Novas, early GTOs, Malibus and Camaros, GM would have been a complete waste....Newer cars I dont like: those boxy things (Scions?) 

[MichaelRW]

Edsel ambulance, click on pic for bigger size.



real ugly car:

[Tilar]

Man that Edsel has a lot of potential... What is that other car?

[MichaelRW]

I think it was version one of Chrysler's turbine car. Just kidding, I googled ugly cars and that popped up.

[Tilar]

That came to mind when I first saw it, but i couldnt imagine somebody chopping one of those up. I worked with a guy one time that claimed to have been one of the guys that designed and built the turbine car. I don't know how far to believe him but he did seem to have a lot of information on it.

[tricky lugnuts]

Alright -- I've always wanted to tell this joke. (I always planned to call Click & Click on Car Talk to ask them, but I guess I can go ahead and let the cat out of the bag.

What car is emphatically not a car when you put the word "car" behind its make and model?

Can I just tell you now?

Hyundai Sonata Car!

[Charger_Fan]

WTF is a VW "Thing"? Besides Ugly? Yeah, that's it, The VW Ugly Thing

Man, I'm with ya on that one! What's worse is trying to sell parts for one of those turds...they're literally made of leftover parts VW had collected through the years of Beetles, Vans, Type-2's, etc. Just an absolute hemorroid of an automobile.
