GCBCs The Bad 8 For 2015
Lets put it this way: Do you want to get us something for Christmas? Dont get us any of these vehicles.
Theyre listed here for a number of reasons, some for just one reason. Whatever the reason, its bad enough to cause your sales analyst of choice to reject the car so completely that Id prefer to own anything else on the market; to reject the car so completely that you, too, should strongly consider avoiding it at all costs.
One key premise behind modern car reviewing suggests that, in 2015, theres no such thing as a bad car. But that doesnt mean you cant do better. In the case of these eight cars, you can definitely do better. Its not about reliability or durability or outright performance - its about desirability, and the point at which desirability lines up with perceived value. These eight vehicles have their pluses, but the minuses – however few or however many - far outweigh the positive side of the ledger.
Click any of the images to be taken to the models Sales Stats page. Dont forget to check out GCBCs The Good 12, the list of vehicles you should definitely park in GCBC Towers driveway on Christmas morning.
 | Acura RLX Im already nodding off. Not that the RLX needs to be terribly exciting, but at this price point it needs to be a great car, regardless of its dullness. But there are no redeeming qualities. Alternative: Cadillac CTS |
 | BMW X4 The X4 is an X3 with less space and less design acumen. But it costs more than the X3. Your mother taught you to avoid situations like this, which is why you dont eat expensive salads for lunch. Alternative: BMW X3 |
 | Buick Encore Slow and somewhat ponderous for such a small package, the Encore does two things very well: be small, and be quiet. If only your children could do the same. If only the Encore did more. Alternative: Honda HR-V |
 | Fiat 500L We say this isnt all about reliability. And its not. But in addition to being awkward, slow, and slow to shift, the 500L is also dreadfully unreliable. Alternative: Kia Soul |
 | Honda Crosstour Not only is the Crosstour ghastly, its been ghastly for a long time. Honda keeps chugging along, more than five years in to the cars tenure. People do want this type of car; just not this specific car.Alternative: Subaru Outback |
 | Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Edition 1 This is from the company which sells such class as the S600. Imagine that S-Class buyer seeing this tasteless hatchback parked alongside in a Benz showroom. "Oh, but its fast," isnt enough.Alternative: Porsche Macan S |
 | Mitsubishi Mirage This car was behind the times when it arrived in September 2013. Time has passed. The world has turned. The Mirage is still inexpensive, but it feels cheaper than ever.Alternative: Nissan Micra |
 | Nissan Versa Sedan How to design a cheap car by the numbers. A new car needs one powertrain, four wheels, a few seats, one steering wheel, four brakes. Humans want more, however. "More" is not in the Versa sedans vocabulary.Alternative: Honda Fit |
