That Nissan Primera/G20 I had, the SR20 was fun but when cam shafts twists and snaps. Things get complicated.
How about you?
Full Version: Worst car you've owned?
none, all of my cars have been honda accord...96, 2002, and last 2003...what can you say...i'm a honda fanboy!! 
Had one just like this Dodge Neon -in violet blue. It was my car in high school. So embarassing. lol
^ LOL.
The worse car ive ever owned was a burgundy 1991 toyota supra turbo. My dad bought it for me when I was 16 back in Dec 1997 with 108k miles on the clock. We got it for $7600. 5k miles later, the car was constantly overheating. And it would stall when you would drive off without letting it warm up first. We just kept putting hundreds and hundreds of dollars into this car to keep it running. Very very unreliable. Not good when you are a teenager with friends to haul and places to go!! Piece of $hit.

Unfortunately you are the victim of the infamous 7MGE or 7MGE-T for the turbo? After a certain mileage the Cressidas and Supras that adore these engines have issues such as overheating because of radiator problems even though you replace the radiator. Warped gaskets and etc are also an issue. Not bad if you can fix it bit by bit...
my family owned a 91 cressida (7mge?) and drove that thing to the ground for 15 years. after about 310K miles or so (commuted 180ish miles a day for work)... the head gasket finally blew leading to a warped head and a damaged block. i wouldnt even call that an issue... but then again... my family maintains our cars real well
1986 Toyota Cressida Station Wagon!! Nothing really bad about it, really, it just had 400k miles on it lol, then decided to crap out on my family when we needed it the most.

I've heard these things love to break down, it's almost religion to these Chrysler Neons.
1986 grand marquis the trunk was practically rusted off. it smelled of stale smoke and bong water. but hey i used to sleep in it so it was all good.
My 90' DA Integra. It fu-kin sucks. That is all.

They do! Also, the paint job likes to chip off.
86 pontiac fiero! Flipped it on its side when it fishtailed into a curbed. Got out alive, pushes the car back on its wheels, and drove it home. Maintanece was a b!tch because that thing is mechanically crambed, good thing my mechanic was a midgit.
Came from a Honda/Toyota family so never had a bad car really.
97 pontiac firebird with almost 300,000 miles

92 Toyota Camry (my first and only car)
it's pretty reliable for the most part, even with 200K + km but it broke down on me a couple of weeks ago. anyways, i recently got the alternator changed, replaced the fuse box and had the transmission pipe fixed up so it's back to working like a charm.

^I actually like this car, but id black it out, tint windows, black rims and call it a day.
Mid 90's Dodge Neon. That car was nothing but problem. Even the steering column broke!
1988 Ford Taurus, GARBAGE!!! My first car, the only crap I could find in my price range. Drove it for 2 years and have owned 1 Volvo and 7 Subarus since then. Thank GOD I discovered the beauty of AWD.
I or my family have had the misfortune of owning:
1)Chevy Vega
2)Chevy Chevette
3)Mercury Capri
4)Fiat X19
5)Isuzu Rodeo
6)Hyundai Excel

The car that my grand father left, Toyota Corolla. It gave me so many problmes, especially in engine and paint. Now I'm happy with Peaugot 206 from my older brother.
2000 Honda Accord V6.
Tranny slipped at 105k. It was a common problem found within that generation of V6 Accords. Besides that, the car was a pleasure to own lol.
Very reliable. The rest of my cars I drove were Hondas and Acuras so the only problems were mostly due to neglect. I blew the motor on my Civic Ex pushing it all the time, well I didn't own that car, my parents bought me that car when I was 17.
