10: 2000-2005 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
The early 2000s were a trying time for the Chevrolet brand as the Camaro was on the way out and the market for passenger cars was shrinking. This edition of the Monte Carlo had an attractive exterior style, that was actually ahead of its time. The interior was also quite large for a coupe, but this didn’t help with the shortcomings. The Monte Carlo had an SS model, but the lack of a V8 made the car a laughingstock with true enthusiasts.

Likewise, the cheap interior materials were prone to fading and tears, which would give the car a dated look long before it was ready to be retired. There were a few special editions of the car such as the Intimidator SS, but these were more or less just appearance packages without any real boost in performance.
