The Worst Cars Of The 1980’s

Pontiac Fiero

Launched: 1984

What Made It So Awful: The Fiero was Pontiac’s attempt at creating an innovative sports car. This car was so popular despite its habit of bursting into flames. The word ‘Fiero’ means ‘fierce’ in Spanish, which is a good description of the criticism that this little sports car received. Apparently, it was one of the safest cars ever produced. If you liked fireballs it was a real blast.
