I've given my grandmother rides to a senior citizen club a couple times, and EVERY SINGLE TIME she SLAMS the door behind her. She must think since she'* old and not as strong she has to slam it to make sure it closes or something, but it really pisses me off. 
Other things include playing with the seat controls, only not switching it to passenger seats first so they f*** up my seat when I'm driving! My brother isn't used to luxury so he doesn't get that you have to move the switch to the right to move HIS seat.
Other things that I don't like are when people I don't know touch my car, especially when it'* clean. I don't mind if someone I know rests against the door or fender (unless they have any buttons or metal objects than can scratch it of course) but if someone ever sat on my hood I would flip out!!
One other things is someone else washing and/or waxing my car, ESPECIALLY the dealership after an oil change. I specify NOT to wash my car because they use a brush on it which scratches the paint. One time they STILL washed it after I asked not to. They almost did it last month, I would have 
if they did.

Basically, anyone I know touching my car. I'm not * stickler about fingerprints or anything, but hey, I don't know you, you don't know me, stay away from my stuff!! And door dings. I've got a couple of new ones in my "collection" lately.

Mine is when people slam the doors. This is how the rubber gets cracked and the car gets so noisy. Also when people track mud into the car. And when people smoke in my 95

I hate the slamming of the doors! I also hate people that put their feet on the dash or out the window. I dated a girl that started to do that once, and I thought she was going to cry when I jumped on her a** for it. Also, my brother-in-law seems to feel this need to run his fongers down the car as he is walking up to or by it to get in. We live in a dusty area, and not only does it scratch the paint, but it looks nasty. I yell at him EVERY single time he does it but I think he'* retarded anyway (it probably doesn't help that I nikcnamed him knuckledragger).

Most people I let ride in my car all have respect for others vehicles. I'd have to say finger prints, "hand grease" is the one I hate most. I got to wipe it off or I'll go nuts.

messin with my settings, one reason to get a new car with set 1, set 2, my truck has it, but my wife doesnt drive any of my trucks so it dont matter!
Food, I need to vacuum my cars once a week because the wife has to eat munchys in them...
Garbage, I like the trucks... You just though it over the cab out the window and it usually lands in the box.. but with the cars the cops dont like that..and I wont put a plastic bag off my ash tray so it just piles put on the floor in the back...
parking lot damage...
