most cars on the road today are dog shit. they are designed to run for 5-10 years and fall apart. simple as that. the best way to tell if a car is a piece of shit is to think about cars from the late 1990s-early2000s and look at how many are still on the road now. one thing is for sure, cars out of japan are not what they used to be. Honda civics/accords Toyota corolla/camry etc, 20 years ago the Toyota corolla and the Honda accord were some of the most solid, well built, over engineered, reliable cars on the planet. they litrally ran forever, why do you think cash for clunkers was REALLY created? to take these old cars off the road, so we would be forced to buy pieces of shit that brake in 5 years!!
worst late model cars I have had personal experience with.
2008-2009 huyndai accent
buddy of mine got one during the cash for clunkers program, he takes care of his cars, but yet after only about 4 years, its blown the head gasket twice, has had two alternators, the AC went out, the engine is already knocking and burning oil, the paint is already burning off of it, and the interior already looks like a 25 year old worn out ford.
2005-2008 Chrysler 300c
these cars were pretty when they came out but already look dated and stupid, the interiors are VERY cheap, almost everyone I know that has one has had all types of electrical problems and transmission problems.
2013 Toyota corolla.
this was extremely sad for me to see. the corolla used to be a tin can but it was bulletproof! the interior didn't have a cheap feel to it, and they ran forever. the new 2013 corolla is underpowered, and is so chinsey, I was sitting in the back seat of one and put my elbow clean threw the rear door armrest with next to no force.
2013 lexus es350 & 2006 GS300
lexus really made a name for themselves in the early 90s, they overengineered there cars, they were SUPER reliable, rock solid, fast/fun to drive and very comfterble, not so anymore. lexus stoped giving a crap around 2003 and it really shows. my boss has a 06 GS300 and he has already blown the tranny, replaced the starter twice, alternator, struts, head gasket etc etc and the car is only what? 8 years old? -pathetic. I drive a 1995 Ls400 back from when lexus was still trying to make a name for themselves and its a damn good very solid car, I recently had mine in for service and got a ES350 as a loner. wow what a cheap piece of trash! everything felt flimsy, had a clunky transmission, already had wear on the seats and controls, it had a frighteningly scary amount of torque understeer, and was just all around crap.
what im really interested in is to see all these new cars as they get old and decrepit, it will be interesting to see how many 2012 dodge chargers, huyndai equuses and sonatas, Nissan maximas, and lexuses will still be on the roads in 2025..
