I've got a 20 year old POS truck I bought for $1,000, the vents blow air from outside the car without heating it, i.e. I can leave the windows rolled up and still feel refreshed without the A/C on in pretty much anything below 90 degree heat. This is not possible with my FRS even when it's 70 outside.
A lot of people are used to that kind of HVAC system, you list off several cars which blow hot air unless A/C is on, but that does not constitute "every damn car known to man", different cars have different priorities when it comes to budget, it would have been nice to have the fans blow air close to outside temperature but we bought a sports car, not a refrigerator with wheels.
