A few things....
1. Has to be the hatch thing. When a window is open or a door is open passengers close the hatch harder than they really need to. I learned this from previous C6 ownership and now get out and close the hatch myself each and every time.
2. Attempt to bring soda cups into the Corvette. No, they are staying out.
3. Complain about how loud the car is. And I will be honest, even with a cam and headers its a tamed beast.

In spite of all my instructions, my wife insists on putting one leg in, then falling into the seat and pulling the other leg in. Then she complains that the car is so hard to get in.

Slamming the AC vents closed when all you have to do is press the passenger climate control button to off position.
Other than that... telling me I drive like a bat out of Hell.

Just normal effort to close it. This isn't a '76 long-bed pickup.
Closing with the (unframed) window drives me crazy too. Watching it flex; agghhhhh!
Stupid ex girlfriend tried to apply sunblock in the passenger seat. The smelly aerosol kind. "NO!!! Bitch! That stuff is made to not come off, how often do you think I shower the inside of this car??"

Pressing that button just defaults to the master (driver) setting. It doesn't prevent air from blowing out of those vents..

My daughters are typically the only passengers in my Vette.
They've both been well trained.

It seems anytime I have a passenger with me, they ALWAYS want to close the door by shoving on the top of the frameless glass window.... Between the fingerprints on the glass and the thought of the glass shattering, I can't be the only one bothered by this, right?
So that got me thinking, what do your passengers do that bother you the most?

The above mentioned and scuffing the feet across the threshold.
Leaving finger prints on windows has driven me nuts for decades...

But I have to say that when we get into a discussion about spending, the Vette in the garage, always comes up. Even though I paid cash for it out of a inheritance.
But then her 60 pair of shoes is alright.
Lesson here is never draw ire to a man's car and let the women have shoes....lots of them.

I like to watch them look for the door handle. Then I play a little game and count the seconds until they look over at me. I tend to not say a word - at all - until they ask me, "How do I get out".
