    Oh, and of course the Mitsubishi Carisma, the least charismatic car EVER built. But since CAR magazine points this out in every issue, I guess this post is redundant.

    The Honda Joy Machine sounds pretty optimistic to me. I'm not making that up.

    I propose the following change to the aspire caption:

    If you've purchased a Ford Aspire, you immediately aspired to obtain a better car.

    Error!

    The Suzuki Swift was only offered with the 70hp, 1.3-litre four in the US (or with the 16-valve GTi engine). While the Geo Metro sister car was slow, the Swift was rather swift indeed.

    Speaking of optimistic, the Aspire trim level that includes the saddest-looking fog lamps ever...

    You meant Plymouth Acclaim, right? Because the Triumph Acclaim was the applause of nation freed from BL domestic terrorism. But, yeah, it was probably not as much fun to drive as a Dolomite Sprint.

    Le Awesomist sounds like the house brand of body spray from Hot Topic.

    Surely the horrible Hyundai Excel deserves a spot here, as well.

    I particularly enjoy 15. I tend to do that in the driveway when we have a foot of snow overnight, and it doesn't get plowed until noonish (I work at 8, of course).

    And besides, Lambo really needs a pickup in their lineup.
