-i can barely get in or out of it
-i cant hear the stereo over the exhaust
-the windows leak whenever it rains
-i cant see stop lights without craning my neck to the side
-people look at me funny whenever i drive it
-it has a 1.8 liter engine that only seems to get about 10 mpg when i drive it
-after less than a month of ownership of a car with less than 14k miles on it, i've had to:
replace the intake camshaft and rockers
wrap the coolant "U tube" so the car doesn't overheat
torque down my rear toe links so i don't die
-my windows rattle when they're down, but i don't want to adjust them because i don't want the adjustment screw to fall out
-i have to spend 20 minutes taking an aluminum panel off just to place a jack stand in the rear of the car
-i can't pull into most parking lots because the slope is too steep
-i can't fill my tank at the gas station without being interrogated by the other patrons
-there are no cup holders
-i cant sit in the seats with my wallet in my back pocket without having to stop at the chiropractors afterward
-and i cant reach the drive-through ATM machines
oh... and it's the best toy I ever bought


Feel free to add to the list of the things that make this "a terrible car, but an excellent toy"
