I agree with most of his picks, but the Bricklin, Volvo 240, Delorean, Plymouth Prowler, VW New Beetle, and the PT Cruiser in my humble opinion should never have made the list. The Pinto in it’s day wasn’t a bad looking car either.

No it just rusted out a week after it was driven off the show room floor :o)

Had a friend who owned one. To quote Luke Skywalker" "What a piece of junk".

I'd take the New Beetle off the list in a hurry. I drive one now. This little beast has some giddyup (the turbo diesel model especially---this thing goes like a bat) and is not a bad little styler. (It beats the living hell out of the original Beetle for style points.) The Plymouth Prowler looks like what happens when you send a blind man to make a hot rod out of a rusty Model A.

If you're looking at a Pinto parked next to a Chevrolet Vega, then yes, it wasn't a bad looking car in its day. ;)
