Uncovering the Most Hated Yet Secretly Awesome Cars: Mazda Miata and PT Cruiser

The cars we love to hate, the ones that at first glance seem destined to be the punchline of every automotive joke, are often misunderstood. Ideal Media is here to set the record straight and show you the most hated yet secretly awesome cars on the road.

Take the Mazda Miata, for example. It's often labeled as the hairdresser car, but what's wrong with that? This little roadster has become the symbol of pure undiluted driving pleasure. Low weight, perfect balance, and rear-wheel drive make it a dance party on wheels. Who cares if it doesn't have the muscle of its competitors? It makes up for it with its sheer charisma.

Next up is the Chrysler PT Cruiser. This car had people divided into two categories, because while it looks great, it was way uglier than the FD RX7 that came before it. But the PT Cruiser was actually a sales success, designed in style to be a throwback to cars of the 30s. Plus, it was available with manual transmission, turbochargers, and a whole host of wild accessories. It's not as unreliable as the internet would like you to believe, and it's actually a lot of fun to drive.
