Worst in my opinion?
.
The Trabant.

…”bad designs indicate speed,purpose and economy. Hence I like bad designs..it has a purpose. Square vans act like one..and fit things inside like one. the miura on the other hand has a sideways v12 that overheated…and it looks it. Front end so squatted it seems to be a piece of plywood accentuated with aero’d headlights..the heaviest part up front above the suspension. Why doesn’t a tractor trailer look like a corvette? why doesn’t a corvette haul 105000 pounds? Nothing is bad, nothing is perfect. A slight think into the wind for aforementioned and it is always a winner…and THAT is where the auto companies went completely flunking and retarded.”…

Why do I get the feeling that some alien life form has internet access, and has an opinion about cars.

Reading this 10 times over… and I still have trouble understanding it.

Worst: the first b9 tribeca. looked like re-incarnated Edsel wagon.

Best: Austin Healey 3000 MKIII. that or the 1957 Bel Air

Best: Tough pick. Either a 1970 Dodge Challenger or a 1964.5 Mustang GT convertible.

Worst: Definitely a 1958 Ford Edsel though it’s kinda good looking in an extra terrestrial way.

Best: Ferrari 250 GTO. Most beautiful car ever.

Worst: 2007+ Honda Civic sedan. It looks like a hamster that shoved too much food into it’s cheeks.

Worst? I would have to say the YUGO is a serious contender and my choice. A truly bad car is neglected in some way at every step from drawing board to showroom floor. I challenge anyone to beat the YUGO.

Best? I wish that were as easy a question as what’s the worst, but it’s not. Do you mean the Best Driver’s car? Best Supercar? Best Racing Car? Best Iconic Car? The “Best” answers will likely fall in differing categories.

My Bests:
-
Antique – Deusenberg “SSJ”.
Why? Opulence, Superchargers, Ram Air intakes, 400 HP… all at or before 1937.
-
Racing – Chapparel 2J.
Why? Around 1970, the 2J used vacuum suction to hold to the track. Suction was strong enough to support the car’s weight INVERTED. It had an unfair advantage, and was barred for B.S. reasons so the status quo could compete amongst themselves.
-
Luxury – Maybach 62s.
Why? Maybach is an old name in super-luxury automobiles that has been revived by Mercedes. If you have the money, you can get a Maybach 57s or 62s. If you’re only rich, you can get a top-of-the-line Mercedes.
-
Icon – Original VW Beetle.
Why? Generally the same model was built between 1938 and 2003. If a model sells for 65 years without a complete makeover, it’s no contest.
-
Exotic – Lamborghini Miura.
Why? The Muira inspired the term “Supercar” back in the mid ’60s. If you look at the contours, you may be able to see the shapes that made it to so many future performance cars, and not just Italian ones. This car was truly ahead of its time.
-
Muscle – 1969 GTO Judge
Why? The GTO ushered in the American Muscle Car era. The Judge was the best of the GTO’s, and 1969 was the best year.

Today’s cars have the benefit of having a head start before their designs even begin, because their designs are refinements on previous models. The truly best cars are those who break new ground and still shine as awesome examples many, many years later.

favorite (or one of them)
The DMC DeLorean.

WORST:honda ridgeline (UGLY) or Scion xB (SHIT)

Hmm…. I’ve never really thought about the best and worst designs until now. My favorite design so far is the 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport. They have all the beautiful design cues from the stock ‘63 Corvette (except for the split window), but in a much more muscular package. Only five of them were made: two convertibles and three coupes, and they all survive today. For a few photos, you can visit:

I’m not really sure what I would consider the ugliest car to be…
