People always talk about what they don't like about their Mustangs... well, what don't you like about other cars?

Kinda random, but I just started work at a BMW-specific (with some MB's on the side...) repair shop, and honestly I'm pretty unimpressed with "the ultimate driving experience".

So to start, BMW shifters. They're soft, vague, and wimpy. The same goes for the clutch. The whole shifting setup on the manual-equipped cars is disappointing and not fun at all.

I've driven a mid-90's 3 series coupe, a 3 series and 5 series from 99, and a 01 M5 (had the highest expectations for this one, and it was the most disappointing).

Discuss (cuz a lot of you crazy people went out, sold your Mustangs, and bought BMW's! ) or add your own.

I always thought the late 90s Tauruses looked more like catfish.

I like Mustangs, because they are cheap and easy to mod, and the parts are plentiful. Try finding cheap parts for an 83 BMW 633CSI, because I couldn't. Try finding anything performance for a Tempo. I had to fab my own crap for that. The Mustang is just cheap, fast, and parts are convenient.

I really dislike the wings on the STI's and EVO's. Functional or not, they're hideous!

Those wings do suck. As well as the Cobalt SS and the SRT4. They totally block the rear view mirror not to mention the gautyness. I like clean cars not cluttered. STI and SRT4 look awesome without wings but you hardly ever see anyone that removes them. +1 on the camarofish too.

i cant stand the scion...xB i think it is....the car thats look like a vacuum cleaner/cardboard box

and as far as mustangs go...the one thing that really bothers me/looks hideous, is when people cover the ford emblem with a decal of a running horse, or the steeda logo. IMO it looks terrible.
also the roush spoiler is TERRIBLE

I don't most of the hybrid cars. Yeah sure they get good mpg but they look like a 5 year old drew them in their sleep. they are just soo ugly.

yep

+1 on the Scion XB being soooooo fugly. There is one in town with rims and a big stereo and a huge LCD screen in the trunk. Why would ya?

Other car things that annoy me...

Asians that put rims on their little rice boxes BUT ONLY PUT 2 NEW RIMS ON ! WTF IS THAT?!?!!? There are 3 or 4 in town with just new front or rear rims....

Domestic rice - This could be my biggest annoyance. Guys with riced out escorts or cavilers or whatever. Man is that lame.

Omg, their are sooo many cars here that are soo gayed out...
u dont have too look hard at all..
i hate..
fartcan exhaust, altezas, carbon fiber *******ckin EVERYTHING!!, hugee azz spoilers, miss matched rims, paint the stock rims ________ color, like 25 degrees negative camber allignments, slammed trucks with 13" gold with many spokes wheels and white wall tires, tv;s popping out of everywhere, tons of stickers, people who think their cars are faster than mine but drive cars i would smoke in my dads truck, etc etc
as far as cars goes, i hate scion xb;s too, the kids that drive those are always retarded, i hate srt4;s because they always pull up next to me and tap the gas and blow off like 15 times it sounds like a modified vacuum cleaner, i also hate cars that sound like electric tools being reved, and cars that sound like lawn mowers and leaf blowers..
sorry guys, we get soo much of that sht here....
/rant
but i get soo excited when a nice v8 or tastfully modded car pulls up next to me...

I hate how much BMW's brakes dust.
I also hate how many new V6 engines are making more hp than our stangs.
