illuminas=bumpy ride
azenis=road noise
thin little firewall=noisy
squeaking of metal in the dash=annoying
squeaking of manifold heat shield=annoying
blown second gear synchros=arrgh im an idiot
bad low coolant sensor=OMFGANNOYING
loose screw in window squeaks=asdoifj

at the end of the day.. i can still hug my car i love it so much though. every 7 owner has a love hate relationship and its best not to dwell on the bad, especially with all im going through with it right now. because you might start punching Savannah or whatever your cars pet name is.

Similar situation happened to me. Both the driver and passenger door handles had broken, so I got into my car by opening the hatch and using my custom bent coat hanger to open the doors. I always hated doing that at school, work, mall, and in public in general. By the way, I did this for over 2 years. Only about 2 weeks ago did I replace those damn things.

Ouch. That kinda thing might just ruin a whole day. Not to mention the whole VD bullshit. Play the Lottery tomorrow, maybe you'll win. Astronomical odds are on your side however you want to look at it.

The passenger door handle that walmart refuses to replace, when they broke it
the shitty stock suspension that's blown
the fucked up toe/camber that's eating my rear tires
(and the fact that I replaced the rears after 4 months)
the maroon interior
the small wheels
the stock 250K motor
the paint
the gas mileage

I could go on all day

you sure your biggest problem isn't that it's not EMP-proof?
