I hate that it doesn't have 400 hp.

I've gone and ordered those LED's. Big rip of with shipping regardless how many LED's you buy. I'm sure the 20$ in shipping only comes in an envelope.

Every other car I've owned has been like this as well. I don't understand it.
Like my STi with red gauges but green HVAC controls.

Where did you order your LED's from? I've always gone through http://lighthouseleds.com and never paid more than $5 for shipping.

And reading through those the common response can be summarized as "dude, you bought the wrong car".
Sounds very familiar really.

What I hate most is it just sits there, all day, right outside my office, begging me to come take if for a drive...and maybe to park straight every once in a while....

MikeM7 · 04-13-2015, 04:21 PM

I hate that people think it's a scion

This car puts a grin on my face every single day. Never even took it to a track. Where I live at least, there's plenty of sharp turns/exits/ramps/U turns etc., and plenty of dumbass slow drivers to weave through. It's a godamn joy every time I get in the thing.

The catless uel header/catback/E85 tune have stepped up the enjoyment even further. I look for reasons to take my car out and refuse to take the wife's focus even when it makes more sense/is more convenient/won't wake up the neighbors at 1 am.

Just wait til I get my jl stealthbox, amps, door speakers, and head unit installed next week

I can see it now:
I hate that it costs $40K
I hate how heavy it is.
I hate that I can't hear the engine.
I hate the colour choices.
I hate the controls on the radio.
I hate the tires they are too sticky.
I hate fact it is so common.
I hate that it looks like every other car out there.

So true. I believe a large part of this is that Americans in general are PAMPERED in all aspects of their lives. EVERYTHING has to be perfect. Politically correct. Doesn't matter if it cost $1 or $100,000. People just love to complain.

And technically we are now complaining about their complaining. We need somebody to complain about us complaining about the complaining. Keep going far enough and we may be able to have complaint inception!

kpamir · 04-13-2015, 05:22 PM

Depending on the day I dislike the headlights and tail lights.

More so the silver/chrome in the tail lights.

Thats about it.

What I LOVE about the car is that 3/4 rear view. I always take a look back at the car when its parked and im walking away from it.

Hahaha I stand corrected. The wrangler complaints are really surprising. I feel like if you're worried about rattles/creaks, clumsy handling, or poor fuel economy, you really shouldn't have bought a wrangler. Same goes for the Elise and complaints about road noise. Seems like common sense/knowledge to me, but perhaps not

Just like if you are concerned about an economy level of interior, communicative handling, low torque high revving motor or what the badge on the front 'means' you shouldn't have bought a Toyobaru.

Edit: What I am contending is that this car has never pretended to be what it's not, there is no hidden truth here that can't be found in dozens of professional reviews and thousands of posts on this site
