Worst Cars of the 2000s

can you believe this?!

worst car of the 2000s by cars.com


1. Smart ForTwo

2008-present

We don't have a problem with small cars in general (we're big fans of the Mini Cooper), just with ones that don't deliver on the benefits of going small. The pint-sized ForTwo sacrifices a lot of passenger space for a relatively unimpressive 41 mpg on the highway, has an SUV-like propensity to roll over, and is equipped with an aggravating sequential manual transmission. Sure, the ForTwo looks cute, but after you drive it you won't be smiling anymore.

2009 smart fortwo

Quoting my sales guy, "Everyone I ask how their test drive went, I get a big smile"
I smell a typical heavily biased article.

When it comes to most journalists...

And the smart car..

STICKS AND STONES MAY BREAK MY BONES BUT WORDS WILL NEVER HURT ME...

ignore the idiots and let your own experiences be your guide.
