23. Suzuki Esteem
The little Esteem hit the market at a time when Suzuki was known for the Samurai SUV. The Esteem came in a sedan and wagon form and was designed to be an affordable offering. The car was tiny by any stretch of the imagination, but Suzuki still managed to sell a decent amount. Reliability was a problem for the little Esteem and repairs were costly.
These cars had somewhat of a resurgence after being the car of choice in the hit TV show, “Better Call Saul.” The Esteem is the perfect example of cheap ’90s engineering.
