Well this is a tough call.. I've owned 3 cars before my Mx-3<P>the first was an '85 prelude which wasn't too fast but was cool because I had it when I was in high school<P>then i had a '95 Civic which was cool... slow.. but WIKKID gas mileage...<P>then i had a '88 RX-7 which was super sweet, fully loaded FAST but crappy gas mileage...<P>Now the biggest disappointment.. '96 MX-3 ... SLOW and BAD GAS MILEAGE!!!<P>I can't figure it out... but there's my story<P>-Tawheed

My worst car would definitely have to be my first car which was a 1988 Ford Tempo. Not only was it slow, but it guzzled gas like it was a sports car. Many problems, many headaches and lots of $$$. Second car was ok, a 1989 Ford Escort. Still slow but faster than the tempo but really good on gas. I got a great deal on it and bought it with only 59,000km on it in 1999. A rare cheap low km find until I drove it into a ditch in the Ontario winter in December 2000. Went carless for a bit then finally decided to buy import. Was really looking to buy a Toyota Paseo but ended up with a great looking MX-3 GS. No regrets so far. I love my car. :)
