To steal a term from (primarily) the Australians, howabout calling them liftbacks? I’ve seen that term used for cars with saloon-type bodyshapes but a hatched tailgate (such as the Mazda6 or Skoda Octavia for example)

I think this might be my new least favourite vehicle ever! Well done, Karlmann
Actually, the last time was Hungary 2006, for the works Honda team. Honda’s actual engines weren’t terrible during the V8 era (there were arguably no particularly bad engines then) it was the aerodynamics of their cars past 2006 that was their downfall; ,when they still had Geoff Willis designed cars (i.e the Honda…
As I did with the Volvo V90, here is (as far as I can tell) the most expensive new Wrangler I can find, and... at $52, 480 it isn’t actually as dear as I’d thought it might be. This is especially true when compared with my attempt with the UK Wrangler configurator (albeit the JKL one as we haven’t got the new one…
For similarly low effort, you could just rename it the “Not Jefferson Davis” Highway, then everything’s fine. To go with this theme, my other suggestion was “The” Highway- if Tesla can do impractical minimalism, why can’t I?
I’m pretty sure that’s a MK1 Volvo V70 (or S70), circa 1998 and I’m a bit worried I guessed that so quickly...
Near where I live (Crystal Palace, London, UK) there is a metallic green BMW Z1 (parked next to a corner shop and some council housing, weirdly), a Bristol 412 (looks like a Ford Capri made in Minecraft), a Fiat Idea (only sold in the UK in very low numbers), the only Perouda Kenari (Malaysia built Daihatsu Move) I’ve…
Another similar case near me is the Crystal Palace Race Circuit, one of the earliest motor racing venues in history, and having been closed due to safety issues in 1972; the course is mostly still intact, but now forms the roads surrounding the National Sports Centre and some of a local park (which is used for cycling…
What about the 512M? Its bulky proportions are as bad as the Testarossa’s were, but had grafted-on late-90's ovoid detailing (especially those round rear lights) from the F355 and F456 that simply doesn’t suit the shape of the car at at all. Also, the pop-up lights are gone- how could you justify that?
The one nomination for worst car on these list that really annoys me is the Fiat Multipla
I’m in the same carbuying situation right now (altough with a lot less money, and in the UK) and I agree with Torch; go dirt-cheap and drive it to death until your insurance is cheap enough for a more interesting and reliable car.
As far as I can tell, this is the most expensive V90 possible- $70,365, in brown with brown seats with brown wood trim, AWD and every non-conflicting option.
