    Default Slowest car you ever had?

    OK since everyone on here always brags about the fastest car they ever had, why not have a post on what the slowest car you ever owned. These cars must meet the following:

    1) powered by a motor (No pushing)
    2) somewhat worked
    3) heavier/Lower HP the better

    To start it off, I myself had a 83 Tercel that pushed about 50HP or something like that at bout 2000.

    1979 Malibu 4 door sedan. 3.3L v6 (i think). Top End when I got it was 105 kph - blew black smoke out the exhaust - worth every bit the $100 I paid for it

    A 1979 Dodge Omni. But the roof-rack, wood grain side panels and mag wheels more than made up for it.

    hahaha yeah me too. I used to have a 1991 Firefly... slow as molasses, but great on fuel.

    My old 1980 Mustang 2.3L/auto coupe was pretty damn sluggish too... in fact, I would say it was probably the slowest car I ever owned.

    The Firefly had a manual, so it could at least *sort of* get moving... the Mustang, no. It was like 0-60 in 20+ seconds...

    The Mustang ended up with a 351W & C4 transplant... so I suppose it was the slowest car I ever owned for a brief period of time...

    I had a 1986 Honda Civic Sedan with the Hondamatic tranmission, that was damn slow. I think my 1984 toyota 2wd carburated truck was slower though. My current Land Rover is also pretty damn slow lol.

    Define slowest?

    My old 60s austin mini was absolutely anemic with it's worn out motor - but cornered like a mofo. Was pretty competitive in autox - but merging onto deerfoot, the onramp was never long enough

    80s lada niva was a dog; but offroad - near unstoppable.

    70s Mach1 Fast on the 1/4 but you start needing to turn (ie going through kickinghorse) and you were slower than the mini... Big block drank up so much fuel you couldn't pass a gas station without stopping - so long distance trips took forever...
