5 of the 10 worst cars ever, made by GM

This list includes cars from socialist and communist countries where people work just hard enough to keep their government cheese. WOW!

Somewhat disagree with the order of the list. Yeah, the Aztec was bad, but worse than a Tribant and a Yugo?

Aztec deserves to be on that list but they dissed Pontiac...that's a little harsh. Pontiac went out with a bang!

Never knew the Vegas were so hated. I know someone who has a VERY fast Vega, 6 second 1/8 mile.

Problem with a Vega is it can only run 1/8, because it couldn't make a 1/4 without overheating or rusting out, or both.

The Vega deserves to be at the head of this list. My sister had one....can't think of ANYTHING good about it.

It's easy to make any "since ever" list (best or worst) when you've been around longer, and sold more than most of the current crop of automakers....

What's wrong with the volt? The only mistake that I see with it is that GM failed to make it into a Cadillac. It's WAY too expensive to be a Chevy.

When you are the largest auto manufacturer in the world (before and after bailout), you are bound to build some crap over the years.

I couldn’t agree more. Although Pontiac had some rough times, mostly notably with the creation of the Aztec, there is no doubt that Pontiac was on the right track. The GTO, although it had its critics, was a very cool (and very fast) car. The Solstice was also well executed and the GXP was downright cool.
Once Pontiac started to get away from the stick on fins, obnoxious door cladding, and giant plastic spoilers of the late 1990’s and early 2000’s and started to make real cars for real enthusiasts, I felt they had reclaimed a lost niche.
It was sad to see the brand die…and it no doubt took a part of America with it went it went.
