The WORST Cars of the 1990s! (PART 1)

Please stop using this AI generated voice it is so annoying and pronounce the same word 3 different way

[@jasongomez5344]

Is that really an AI generated voice? That's pretty amazing. I didn't realise.

[@BrandonHilton83]

​@jasongomez5344 Yes, it's AI. They use the same voice on some late night commercials on TV. It's pretty good, in my opinion though beside the awful pronouncing of some of these Car Models

[@briq4409]

Literally came to say the same thing. I hate this AI voice. He sounds like he’d be a jerk.

[@ahoorakia]

@@jasongomez5344 12:32 pronounced it DAY WOO .12:39 it become DIE WOO😂 13:05 still DIE WOO 13:14 return it DAY WOO

[@konstantinpobedonotsev5589]

It’s way better than all the KZbinrs who decided to start pronouncing the letter T like the letter D.

[@donedwards6414]

No Acura was ever one of the 'worst' cars. The T100, while rather wussy styling, had the brick built quality of a Toyota.

[@3644Darrell]

I still have my 1996 Toyota T100 I bought off the showroom floor and it's been the best vehicle I have ever had

[@conroypaw]

Most of these vehicles are FAR from the worst cars. They may have been marketing missteps or shy first steps into a market they were new to, but that's it. Some were bad, but not the worst. Generally, most on this list were still were well made vehicles and priced well, especially compared to the crap we have today. I think the only vehicles that truly belong on this list are the Dodge Van (bad mechanicals), 2nd Gen Chevrolet Cavalier / Pontiac Sunfire (bad mechanicals and quality control), Daewood Lanos, Nubira, and Leganza (so bad Daewood no longer sell cars in the US), and the Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Convertible (typical 80s malaise still plaguing GM). This video needs to go back and revise its criteria for what is bad. Bad marketing and sales doesn't make a car bad. Bad design, construction, fit and finish, quality control, safety, handling, unreliable mechanical or electrical functions are what make a car bad.

[@kevinW826]

The ironic thing is the Hyundai Ioniq hybrid sedan looks like a copy of the 1996 ford Taurus. The jag xj220 would still do 200 mph plus while modern super cars will barely do that.

[@jbb8382]

My 99 Acura CL was a FANTASTIC car! 5 spd too. Very dependable & fun to drive. Whats Inta-gra man smokin?

[@LilDiabloRob]

My 99 Acura CL V6 had that crap slipping trans but i had fun keeping up with Benz and BMWs from the mid 00s

[@karlbeaupre6813]

Yeah the guy making those videos must be retarded especially by using AI, I've had a 1997 CL 2.2 with the 2.2 engine, it wasn't a fast car and it was never meant to be (and honestly I don't give a fuck about this) but it was still running strong, cheap on gas and parts. Here's the kicker : the car was a hand me down by my parents in 2015 and by then it had already over 500 000km, I live in a rust area so that was kind of inevitable but other than that it was great, I miss that car to this day as my current 2012 Nissan Sentra SER door pannel armrest side broke off, that shit never happened with the old Acura 😂

[@karlbeaupre6813]

I've heard the Honda's automatic transmissions coupled with the V6 were notorious for poor reliability, it's a shame as otherwise the J V6 are underrated engines. My old 97 had the 2.2 and the transmission only started slipping when it was over 500 000km, at the time I was also a dumb kid that I was doing 1-2-3 drive with the automatic transmission, which I regret it to this day 😅

[@doug6191]

7:42 - Wrong. The Catera was an admission by GM that they're making the wrong vehicles to compete with the Europeans, namely BMW and Mercedes. They needed a sports sedan with RWD and sophistication. Catera was more of a case study than a final project. The lesson wasn't "wE nEeD a DiStInCt DeSiGn," which then led to the CTS. The lesson was "we need agility, horsepower, sophistication, and a new identity." That's why CTS was so starkly different from the bloated FWD shit Cadillac was selling before then.

[@garysoderberg9520]

I had a 99 CL. It was a great car with a 5 speed manual. I had it for 20 years, close to 300,000 miles.

[@Baseballnfj]

Same here. It wasn't any damn Accord that's for sure

[@jaimem.altadonna3117]

I don't care what anybody has to say about the 1990 - 1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Convertible. I owned a 1994 red one. That is and will be the best ever made period!. A beautifle design and driving experience. That car isand was very reliable. My favorite car all time.

[@astroburek]

100% agree

[@jaimem.altadonna3117]

@@astroburek I’m glad you agree. You have good taste.

[@jaimem.altadonna3117]

I’m going to buy another one in years to come.

[@Baseballnfj]

Oldmobiles were good cars! The Aurora was amazing... truly futuristic and the intrigue was solid. They also called the Jaguar XJ220 one of the worst cars lol. It was a failure but it definitely wasn't one of the worst. I owned a 1999 Acura CL type s too and that thing was awesome. Not the worst anything

[@davinp]

The Cavalier was cheaply built lacking the high quality and reliability of the Civic and Corolla.

[@jasongomez5344]

Big fail on the wrong pictures of the Saab 900. That was the previous model which, as you said, was a big success.

[@sf-dn8rh]

That gen Cavalier was well made. Family member and 2 friends had em and they ran well. I almost traded in my lemon of a Datsun on a Cavalier.

[@trainglen22]

I don't care what anyone says about the Plymouth Breeze. I thought that it was a decent car.

[@seed_drill7135]

I like the oval Taurus, especially in wagon form. It was the fail on the dot at 120,000 miles transmission that earns them their place on this list.

[@jayfeather808kinz]

Ok a SAAB on this list? The heck? First off, GM fully bought Saab in 2000, not the 90s, and Saab was really it's own company until then. Saab actually LOST money on the cars because they were trying to keep the original. Also, The 900 was NOT with the Opel, that was the 9-3. Lastly, half of the pictures of the Saabs shown are not even the same generation? Get it right smh.

[@bertalanduka]

1980S SAAB 900. MODEL.

[@doug6191]

0:12 - Nah. No. You can't call the Breeze one of the worst cars if the Stratus & Cirrus were fine. You can criticize the badge engineering or the overall marketing strategy of Plymouth, but the car isn't bad just because the business model is.

[@pjesf]

I’m loving the descriptions - feeble, parsimoneous, miserly, way-too-many-martinis-at-lunch… 😂 Subscribed 👍🏻👍🏻

[@cuseyeti_one8three]

I’m guessing 95% of this video is AI generated. Not all that impressive.

[@pjesf]

@@cuseyeti_one8three I’m guessaing AI narrated

[@American.legends]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Gerisheng]

Wait, I'm only 1:04 in and this is already an AI-narrated amateurish hack job. Why criticize the Breeze as being the budget version of the "cloud platform" cars when Plymouth was the budget brand? Makes perfect sense. Sure the Chrysler Cirrus was much nicer, but Chrysler was the lux brand. Sure the Dodge Stratus was sportier, but Dodge was the sportier brand. Did these people do any research? I'll keep watching and edit this if I need to, but what lame half-wit presentation right from the start.

[@Spnlgrl1985]

My nephew has one of those Taurus's and it keeps going, I don't mind the oval look to it. I loved my '91 Chevy Cavalier RS! Was a great first time buyer car.

[@2DogsVlogs]

The Jag XJ220 wasn't a bad car, just ridiculously overpriced. Daewoo were just cheap crap and probably the worst 1990's cars, closely followed by Mercedes Benz with their stupid wiring harness that degrades and costs almost the same as the car to replace. Nissan was also a problem. With cars that would fall apart and mechanical problems that were expensive to fix.

[@thewiseguy3529]

Oh yeah but don't say anything about dodge, Plymouth and Chrysler lol You know jack chit bro

[@2DogsVlogs]

@@thewiseguy3529 Never seen a 90's Dodge or Plymouth so I don't have an opinion on these. Yes the Chrysler were sht. The Neon was a disaster. I've had a few 90's cars but they were all really good. Mostly Mitsubishi, Ford & GM-H. Best were the Mitsubishi's especially the Lancer & Magna. The Lancer Coupe was my personal car.

[@adamsmith9636]

I loved my 1993 Honda Del sol vtec manual

[@jackieeng6293]

I loved my VTECH B16 engine, rev to 9k no problem.

[@kevincurry4735]

I had a 99 Acura CL 5 speed Red. I put over 400k miles on it in 20 years. By far the car I put the most miles on and I still could have driven across to California from North Carolina if I want to even at the time I sold it in 2019.

[@marekeos]

The 90's were one of the all time worst decades in automotive history. The oval shaped everything, especially in American cars was the peak of hideousness.

[@johnnymason2460]

The T100 wasn't a complete failure. A T100 SR5 extended cab pickup with the 3.4 liter V6(190hp) was pretty decent. I would love to have one right now.

[@dreamcast303]

XJ220 as worst car? Oh, boy.

[@joaopedrobaggio4475]

Nice vídeo, i am a classic cars enthusiast, nowadays the cars all looks the same.

[@doug6191]

2:31 - Again... You can't call the T100 "awful". It was still a good truck, but didn't succeed at taking over the full-sized truck market. It was more of a Dakota competitor. Bigger than Pickup/Tacoma, but nowhere close to the full-sized trucks nor as capable.

[@davinp]

Nobody liked the weird oval style of the redesigned 1996 Ford Taurus. As a result, the Ford Taurus lost to the boring Toyota Camry as the #1 selling car in America

[@40Willum]

I loved my 97.

Another otherwise good video ruined by horrible AI narration. 🙄

[@3644Darrell]

I still have my 1996 Toyota T100 SR5 extracab with the 3.4L engine I bought off the showroom floor. It's been the best vehicle I have ever had. It had the highest quality rating of any vehicle made during those years and was the last truck actually made in Japan. The bed is full size with a 2,000 lb. payload rating which is more than any 1/2 ton full sized pick up today. A truck this size would sell well today as trucks made now are as big as tanks

[@eightbitw0rld]

The Toyota Pickup was one of the greatest small pickup trucks of all time. Trucks do not have to be huge to be useful, the new F150s and RAMs have a smaller bed size than the T100. My dad used to pick me up in kindergarten TO my high school years in his pickup. He sold it to his brother at 350k+ miles to his brother and drove it for years until it rust took it. That truck saw so many lawn mowers and couches that he would help do utility work. Toyota blows american cars out of the water any day of the week. And the CL has the most reliable engines ever made. I never see old american cars on the road but when I do see old cars, they're almost- always a corolla, camry, accord, or civic or their derivatives; barely an example of the worst 90s cars.

[@jbb8382]

Daewoo, Hyundai and Kia are spooky cars

[@trossk]

whoever got that last Jag 220 is sitting on a pile of money now. That was the only car that I would have taken over a Countach, back in the day

OH Man I don't know about anyone else but you could do a stand up comedy routine with this stuff. I am a old guy and I only remember 60% of these cars. I must have lived a very sheltered😂 life.

Be sure to put the 1990 Ford Tempo at the top of the list shitiest car I ever drove .

[@joycebrackbill-henderly8311]

Mom had a Breeze . Roomy with great mpg , roomy even the back seat , candy apple red , yes plastic wheel covers . It still looked cool . It was not bad . A mid size at the price of some compacts . Consumer Reports gave it the best value .

[@michastaneke2791]

Daewoo, its an achievment to design cars so incredibly ugly 😮

[@sf-dn8rh]

Ford sued Toyota over the T 100 name, due to the similar naming of the f 100

[@alisandy4207]

“hella inexpensive “😭😭😭😭

[@GlennC789]

Wasn't Toyota's fault the T100 didn't find a market, it was just running up against buyers who wanted oversized compensation machines instead of practical utilitarian vehicles.

[@tasaab]

Had a 2002 Acura CL-S, the last Honda product I have or will ever purchase again. It had the explosive transmission and the way Honda handled the issue was about the worst. I had a 1992 Acura Legend that was so good, I kept it 15 years. But this one, yikes!

[@metalodon]

These newer Daewoo model, which are sold there under the Suzuki brand, continued to be produced and sold in Europe under the same brand Daewoo. They were produced in Poland, Ukraine and some other countries of the former Soviet Union.

I wholeheartedly agree with pretty much everything they're saying. Only thing I'd like to add is they will should have stuck to making assault rifles. My Dad's friend had one it was built like a tank. Quite an impressive.

The Chrysler Cloud cars. The Breeze is just a cheaper rebadged Dodge Stratus. This is why DamilerChrylser killed off Plymouth as Plymouth did not have any unique models

The 1994 to 1998 900 (NG) was based on the Vectra, it was then renamed the 9-3. The images in the video however don't show a 900 (NG), but face lifted first gen Saab 900's, which are still very much an original Saab design. The video is very sloppily made.
