Seasick Steve, although calling him a celebrity is a bit of a stretch. Here's a partial list (shamelessly cut and pasted):

AGREED! Doubleplus bad if it has a Mississippi license plate.

Anything with a Mississippi plate. In the left lane. Doing 5mph slower than the speed limit.

Totally agree. I had one of those for 11 years and I'm still kicking myself for selling it. In fact, I had that exact year, trim and color.

I can't believe no one's said Tatra yet? Technically they're still in business but they stopped making cars in 1999. Because air-cooled V8 in the rear!

The Dymaxion. Claimed top speed of 120mph with rear wheel steering. Really??? Still, pretty forward thinking for the 1930's!

Jim Carrey and his Tatra in Lemony Snicket is definitely worth a mention.

Little Miss Sunshine revolves around a road trip in a VW Van. The van was definitely one of the characters.

I guess this deserves a mention... The Subaru 360 suicide doors!

Any Soviet built radial engine that can be wedged into a Goggomobile.

The 1993 VW Eurovan. Instead of adding a more powerful (porsche) engine to the back of a redesigned Vanagon, the last of the ubiquitous line of VW cab-forward micro-busses, they went with this lump of blandness. Sure, it was bigger, and had a more reliable A/C system, and was more reliable (a bit) but the…

Nah. Had to look that one up, tho...

Duh! I Give you the VW Vanagon Syncro.

Pretty much anything Maserati made up through the 80's. The BiTurbo posted here as a prime example of something just waiting to go wrong...

Incomplete list from the top o my head...

1972 Porsche 914/6.

Looks like he was screaming over spilt milk. (0:07)

The Mini. Not for its size but I believe it was the first to use the front engine, front wheel drive transverse mounting scheme. That is now the standard for the majority of cars made today.

Read chapter 3 about the Bricklin in Jason Vuic's excellent book about the Rise and Fall of the Yugo and the only conclusion to today's question is OH HELL NO!!! CP CP CP CP

1979 VW Beetle 'vert. End of an era!
