The worst car you see everyday...

Post by AdR »

...and what would you do to "improve" it?

Here's mine: '99 Fiat Uno 2-door

I see this piece of shit everyday on the street... just sick of it. Don't even get me started on those suckers that adds spoilers, wings and shit, ridiculous. Built of tin can steel, cheap plastic all over and every screw gets loose after a month or two out of the dealership. The funny thing is the money they ask for these shitboxes... nuts! People just gets stupid and stupid everyday.

Image

This is how I would improve it... so the only place where it belongs is the junkyard. Useless crap.

Some of you will wonder, but this is fucking reality, and a big shame! Here in Holland we see a lot of Smarts. They are like these trashbins:

It is horrible! I can't stand these so called 'cars'! Mleh. They are like some kind of deformed tuned cars you see in NFSU. And you know what I want to do with these? No, not a crash test. These cars need a fucking slicer!

The last year I saw a crash (TAXI vs BUS) in some street of Montevideo.

I was walking with my uncle to the PC Video Games Shop, when they crashes. But it was not a great crash,single lights were broken.

:rofl: "poor smartie"... thanks for that link, Beast. Those "bastards" deserve a prize.

The thing is: I live in the area where these ugly little things are built. There's no other place on earth where you see so many of them every day.

I suppose they are something like merchandising gifts for Benz customers, I couldn't really imagine anybody actually buying these ... well ... wheelchairs with a little body around them. It's hilarious.

@nWo: As I still live at least a few miles away from that exact place, as long as you don't use a nuclear bomb, I won't be concerend that much :cool: (and you won't use a nuclear one, will you? :sad: lol)

@autopilot: yeah, like I said, they must be some kind of standard merchandise gift, like biros and such. Or you can possibly find them in your cereals, I don't know...

lol we have a winner! I'm sure that they come as a gift in the trunk of the S class Mercedes! Never seen one around, there are mostly cheap manufactured small european cars. Nothing is imported, it'll be too expensive, so they make them here or in brazil.

@TTR: Yeah, that's a '99, they still make that shitbox, the newer model is unbelievably ugly!!

what?!! Chevettes are kings among men!! It doesn't deserve to be mentioned anywhere near a Smart! (meant in the most chevette-favoring way...because it could also be interputed as the chevette being inferior to the smart, but this is obviously not the case!!) ":)"

Gotta agree with Econo here: The pure esthetics of a chevy logo puts a chevette miles ahead of a smart. Don't know in what condition the one you saw was, though. But it must have been one that has been pressed together my a junkyard machine, to a size and shape similar to a smart. Otherwise I can't figure out why someone writes such a comment, lol :wink: .

The original idea behind the Smart car was pretty good actually. Provide cheap, affordable and somewhat comfortable transportation for young people. The smart was mainly supposed to be sold to students, for a reasonably low price. However, some initial design faults resulted in a lot of reworking done, which in turn resulted in a high price (for what you're getting). For example, you'll notice that the rear tyres are wider then the front. That's because the original car was so unstable when turning, they had to make the rear wheels wider (much like when the A-class was first made.. then they put in stability control). The Smart is a great city car, but only because of it's size. Those of you that live in densely populated areas, know how hard it is to find a parking space. You can park the Smart pretty much anywhere.

However.. it was a huge flop. Mercedes Benz (Daimler-Chrysler) is losing a lot of money on it. Sales are not as expected, which is understandable, considering the price, and although it was supposed to be sold on the US market aswell, that was cancelled, just a few weeks ago. There are rumours going around that MB is ditching the whole Smart line altogether quite soon.

Again, I'll say that the idea behind the Smart was good. It's a practical little car for students. Student's don't haul around huge things. Just a few books and notebooks, and that's about it. For that, the Smart is perfect. It gets decent mileage, it's comfortable (you'd be amazed how much space there is inside, although it is a 2-seater) and it's a funky little car that will appeal to young people. However, the price puts it off.. For the price of the Smart, I can buy a new Ford Fiesta or a Seat Ibiza or something similar, which is quite larger and better.

@Beast: Absolutely right. The fact that this brand is going down is also noticable in the cancelling of the production of the smart roadster, the only smart that looked quite ok (like a cheap version of a lotus elise). As some of you might not be aware of, there are/were more kinds of these ugly things, but now the line-up has been downsized to only the original smart and the forfour (like the name says, a smart with 4 seats and a little different, but not much better, design).

About that student thing: I don't know anybody in my age who drives a smart, cause like Beast said it right, it's either too expensive, or, if you got the money, you rather buy a much better car. So the smart makers really missed the sort of customers they aimed at.

@Econo: I know, I know, I've been a bit disappointed when I first saw a Chevette, too, wondered why Chevy makes such cars, but hell, you mentioned it in one run with a SMART :tongue: .

im sick of people who cant deal with rice cars, people think diferently, and im starting to think a lot of you cant handle that. honestly i think the whole world is stupid, but i cant do anything about it. people like rice cars, people like muscle cars, people like trucks, vw bus's and so on. the little cars like that i think are absolutely ridicolous, but to keep on bringing the same rice topic up is starting to get boring and stupid. i think everyone knows who likes and doesnt like rice cars.

The basic concept of the smart was indeed sound, but the problem is one that comes around regularly: how big is the market for ultra-specialized items that only do one thing? In that case, driving around a city is about the only thing cars like the smart can seriously be expected to do. They're not powerful enough, have too high a center of mass and don't have enough useable volume to do anything else. I guess some ppl would go for it IF it could be sold @ bargain-basement prices. When you actually have to make a profit on sth like that, it becomes a problem, as the fixed costs of opening an assembly line are pretty high regardless of the size of the car and you either have to price it so it becomes uncompetitive or drop the quality to the point where no one wants it either. :suicide:

Basically, a bike does a better job in most areas except grocery-getting and comfort, but the price, both in terms of purchase and upkeep make that a better choice for most ppl, I would think.

Oh, and I'm sick of ppl who get sick b/c other ppl say they're sick of something(esp. when the subject of the thread is by nature subjective). :grin:

:rofl: Never expected that this will go this far! actually I should rename the topic to "Why the SMART sucks so much" or sht like that. My idea was to create some kind of challenge: Improve the car you hate the most in a way that you can't hate it anymore... I was looking for creativity here, but I things turned the wrong way somehow... I know, I wasn't creative at all, but at least I explained the way I "improved" the car and why :wink:

I know, I was bored that day, sick at home, my girlfriend away at work, nothing important to do (I couldn't do much in the condition I was), so stupid thoughts get into my brain when I'm like that... might be the fever... or the nasal congestion that went straight up to my head... whatever, sorry that you guys didn't get the point of this (nothing important, anyway). :grin:

Thats sad :sad:

That chevette must be really angry, no chevette deserves that.. I hope it gets some revenge on the driver.

Check out this sexy one:

Image

Anyway, the car I currently most hate (other than smart), would have to be the toyota scion:

Image

Luckily there doesnt appear to be many of them. How would I make it better?

Firstly that gigantic front bumpers gotta be ripped off.. maybe weldge some spikes to the front frame afterwords as a replacement "bumper", those wheels gotta go to.. just put some steelies on it. The slick paint needs to be spray painted flat black, and then be beaten with a baseball bat for a few hours for that "weathered" look.. some dirt thrown on it would help a little too (not to excessive). I dont know if this would save it, but it would be more pleasing to look at.

I'm not sure what my most disliked vehicle is, but I do have a disliking for some Fords, due some past experiences.

I do remember seeing this horible ricer on the net, once. I forgot the web site, but I do remember it was on a forum. It was some sort of a small, rusty Honda(forget what). It had wood spoiler, waste basket scoop, rope roll cage, and a few other trash items. He even used some ugly left over paint on it. Even put some on the rims!

I'm not against ricers, it's just these type of ricers I'm not much for.

porly treated and ninty percent of the whole car was probbly about ready to die when

you spent you well earned money on the P.O.S so you kept having to spend week after week
