WoW --- 180 Posts....

There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING I don't like about my car... I've never bitched one single time about the car. Never will - unless the Column Lock gets me.

I hate the water that sits on my chrome doorsill covers after it rains or you wash it. Even when the cover is on and it rains, there is water there. And then when you open the trunk lid and all the water runs down and into the trunk.

the cup holder is a pain, but not as much as the C4. When I had my C4 if you had a drink you couldnt put the gear in reverse(6spd), always had to take it out

I hate having to open a door just to close the hatch. And I can never seem to get it closed the first time - getting back in the car then getting the "hatch ajar" message.
