Description: It should be pointed out here that not all superminis are awful. There have been quite a few with nice interiors that are also fun to drive, but up until fairly recently, the majority of superminis so...Add Comments10
Aaron CrispFeb 07, 2013 These things were sweet. Damn good horrible car haha. We put 4 wheeler tires on my buddies one time. And 50 MPG! Damn good beater cars for around town. My kids first car will be an equivalent to that haha something I won't be mad when they wreck.
Wayne Joseph BoreanFeb 06, 2013 Pontiac sold the same thing under the name "Firefly", and it was a damned good car. The 1.0 L engine was revvy, and I'll never forget the day my wife came home glowing because she'd beaten a Corvette at a stop light. Yeah, the Vette probably wasn't really trying, but small, super light cars, with decent suspension are a lot of fun to drive.
Wmg ChinchillaFeb 06, 2013 This should not be on this list. I can't tell how much cheap fun my friends and I had in one of these in my younger years
Dylan BruderFeb 06, 2013 Brandon is correct they sold fast there's even someone around me who chopped the roof off made it a convertible and put side pipes on it there's a club for em now
Michael PageFeb 06, 2013 Yes this car is sh&t, the only point of its existence was mpg's. And @50 mpg, that's better than any new non hybrid.(yes I know cars are heavier now, but still, that's a huge braggin' right).
Michael HorneFeb 06, 2013 Our drivers ed. class in high school had us drive a Geo Metro. Awful car, no space inside, and a pain to get in and out of (much less drive!)
Tyler TarboxFeb 06, 2013 You can buy a fully functioning Geo Metro for under $1K haha
Raymond ReynosoFeb 06, 2013 Chevy with the damn Geo, pointless car.
Justin JohnsonFeb 06, 2013 My friend had a '91 Suzuki Swift. That car went to hell and back and kept ticking.
Brandon BairianFeb 06, 2013 When gas went up a few years ago , clean examples of these were getting all the money because 3 cylinders.
Description: This was a relatively short-lived brand from GM which offered a variety of rebadged Japanese models as captive imports. Some of these cars actually weren't so bad in their original forms, but Geo...Add Comments0
Description: The Cultis started life in 1983, being sold only in Japan for a few years, with exports starting in 1985. The first North American GM-badged version would appear at this time, wearing the name Chevy S...Add Comments0
Stephen Tyler LearnFeb 06, 2013 @erich because this car will run and the fiat won't
Michael HorneFeb 06, 2013 Yeah, but look at the chrome! Look at it! Oh those mirrors.... K, I'm done.
Erich EngelFeb 06, 2013 You can buy a fiat spyder for around the same money... Also a fiat bertone x1/9 so I don't see an excuse to buy this crap unless you know nothing of cars which is most people
Description: In a country where both space and fuel were relatively cheap, American automakers, and GM in particular, just never seemedto grasp why anyone wouldn't want a gigantic car. It never seemed to occu...Add Comments0
Description: Things have since gotten better, but in 1989, Geo was a brand of deliberately cheap and awful cars. They even went so far with the Metro that even hubcaps were an optional extra. The Metro was offered...Add Comments0
Jayce MadridFeb 07, 2013 This guy's got no style, he never even had the right engine to finish the quarter mile. For god's sake, get rid of this car, it really is an eyesore that makes me wanna smash it with a crowbar.
Michael HorneFeb 06, 2013 Is this even necessary....
Daniel Kenneth BablerFeb 06, 2013 Tyler I see those people everyday in Crowley/fort worth and I always wonder about there sanity...
Tyler TarboxFeb 06, 2013 No the head unit probably costs more than the price of the car. Kind of like when people buy $1,000 cars and put $3,000 rims on them in the hood of south Dallas
Bill Estep JrFeb 06, 2013 That head unit has to be the third of the cost of the car
Robert YoungFeb 08, 2013 Hey at least you can make a necklace out of the pistons when the engine gies
Brett VincentFeb 07, 2013 It's the Internet, this is where people reclaim attitudes from middle school. Cussing is cool and every other comment must be insulting someone else present.
Chris BensonFeb 07, 2013 Does it really make someone feel better to say "fuck" on a comment? I mean really is this where we are headed?
Brock BulbulFeb 06, 2013 No Erich, I'm pretty sure that's a carburetor. Lol.
Gray ConronFeb 06, 2013 Hook up some AA batteries and you're set. Lol
Lou GuerreroFeb 06, 2013 I bet the battery makes more power.
Description: This was something of an improvement over the old car, with more power, more options and slightly more interior space. It still wouldn't exactly set sales alight, but it should be remembered that...Add Comments2
Michael HorneFeb 06, 2013 A bike ? You could buy at least two and a half!
Raymond ReynosoFeb 06, 2013 Sought after? If rather buy a bike with the money
Description: Used Metro values suddenly doubled or tripled as interest in an absolutely bare-bones car picked up. This has now pretty much dropped off, but panic purchases of Metros were a very real thing for a ti...Add Comments1
Dale SchroederFeb 07, 2013 I recall the bottom trim level of the Aveo (another crap import) didn't even offer floor mats or a radio in an attempt to keep it under $10k at first. So even until very recently GM still thought small cars were only for poor people.
