The car benefits from more rubber on the road, that's not a matter of taste.
The exhaust looks wimpy in the rear fascia, because they knew a ton of buyers would replace it anyhow. Maybe a matter of taste, if you care.
There's no center arm rest, the plastic knee pads on the 2013's left drivers with bruises, the cheap plastic HVAC controls look like something from 1992, etc etc.

You can call it a perfect little angel if you wish, but it's just a car to me, and I'm not squeamish about addressing the faults.
