What's the least interesting car in the world?

[BusyBadger]

2005 malibu

Good call. I had the Saturn Ion in mind but the Malibu is an even better example of the auto equivalent of cold oatmeal.

[ILOVESILVIA(S13)]

Geo prizm

HAHAHA! The Corolla is my daily driver. Very boring, but very reliable.

[hatedinthemind]

Oldsmobile Achieva

[OriginalWheelman]

By that I mean:

1. Not cute
2. Note polarizing
3. Not brutally ugly
4. Not pretty
5. No heritage or legacy
6. Not fast or too terribly slow
7. Not crude but not extremely refined either
8. Not terribly unreliable, but nothing that would survive a nuclear holocaust either
9. No real cult following, few detractors

[Koshin]

Chevy celebrity

[Koshin]

scratch that

Nissan S13

[Jesda]

Oldsmobile Achieva

Solid example. Forgotten and left to the past. Loved by almost no one.

I hated mine. If not for some fond teenage memories, I'd never remember it.

[Poyzinous]

Any GM, Ford, Dodge product from the 80's to early 90's that isn't a Corvette, Camaro, Mustang, Viper, or continuing truck. They all seemed to be cookie cutter crap.

[cellardoorv]

Pretty sure it would survive a nuclear holocaust though...

[Chaotic_Warlord]

Why hasn't any put the neon on this list yet, afterall you don't get more uninteresting than that.

[numbnuts240]

see the criteria again. specifically numbers 6 & 8.

Its actually a lot of fun to drive.

[Encryptshun]

1st Generation Proton Saga



Too ubiquitous to be cultish, very reliable, very no-frills.

[PBfrEAk]

80's Chevy Celebrity

80's Ford LTD

Eagle Summit Wagon

LTD yes, but no the the Celebrity and Summit Wagon. Both have followings and the Summit wagon is BAD a**.

I think the Mailbu and Corsica are still at the top as well.

But how about this:



The dreaded K car.

Neons are regularly raced, there were a couple of performance variants (SRT4 and ACR), and they've got a big cult community. Totally ineligible.


I also strike down the Renault, as a French car in America is uncommon enough (even at the time) so as to make it at least borderline "interesting"

I agree. They're just not built particularly well.

I also agree. Nicely designed car, badly built, but Renault also made a turbo version of the car car which had real ballz.

Until you try and back up.

[Shizane2002]

Pretty much every Toyota Avalon

[Murdered_T]

Corsica/Lumina are great entries. Outstandingly mediocre!

Since my vote for the Neon was kicked out, here are 2 prime examples of less than interesting...

Ford Tempo/Mercury Topaz


Ford Escort


With the exception to the Escort Cossworth (which we can't get here) the rest of the escort/tracer/contour lineup is less than inspiring, especially when powered by its ball less SOHC 1.9L engine (whopping 94hp from the factory). But the escort is horrible looking, and they aren't unreliable, but they are horrible to work on.

Saturn SL.

Much better choices this time....

[OriginalWheelman]

Ford Tempo/Mercury Topaz

Gotta disagree with you on that one. The Tempo is OBNOXIOUSLY reliable. Mine would always run with a stack of problems. I knew peopel that never changed the oil in them, just added as it burned off etc. It's really hard to kill a tempo.

[confused9]

not very bland but pretty bad

[confused9]

i HATE the bubble windows!

The 90s Escorts were dependable and with a manual GT, really good fun to drive. They werent quick, but they were tossable. GTs also had 1.8L Miata engines.

As far as looks, it looked distinctly Japanese -- minimalistic and petite.

Achieva's ugly cousin:

the Buick Skylark

I just remembered another "special" one:

The Chrysler TC Maserati
