The worst car I’ve ever driven was also the best because it lasted me until I was able to get on my own two feet and afford a new one: Nissan Sentra 97’.

around 200,000 miles the engine literally began falling out from the bottom of the rusted frame. I took it to a mechanic and they ran a wire underneath to hold it in place. Drove it for 5 more years after that!
Driver side window would not stay closed during Chicago winters so I glued it shut.
Dashboard lights burnt out.
Muffler would scrape across the pavement as I courted my girlfriend (now wife) around town.
