While reading this thread I am struck by two thoughts.

The first is that "worst" (or "best") is defined by expectations.

The second is that it says as much about the owners as about 
the cars.  Owners buy what they can afford, drive what they 
know, maintain according to their experience and knowledge.  A 
person is lucky if he/she can't afford what he/she doesn't know 
enough to avoid!

Just my $0.0002, of course.

usually with reservations, and who can't really blame the cars
