The most annoying thing people to my car is slam the doors. I just want to beat those people ( my fiances family mostly). I took them to the grocery store one time and after they put thier stuff in my trunk they slammed it so hard I thought my spoiler was a goner. Also I want to go nuts on people who like to lean against my fenders or sit on my hood. Also when someone borrows it and puts 87 octane gas in it when they know I only use 89. RRRRRRRRRRRR

I would have to agree that slamming doors are the worst. Just because they drive some piece of crap does not mean that every other car needs to have the door slammed to close fully!

The trunk thing used to really bug me with my Touring Sedan because it had the self-closing trunk (no idea why this is not on the SSEi). I would always cringe when someone else would slam the trunk down, even after I told them not to.

yeah I know. My fiance family own that regal I talk about from time to time and they have to slam the doors to close em. my bonny take very little force to close and they slam them damn hard. I get so pissed. I keep my cool but I feel like telling them not to even touch my car. That drives me nuts. No respect at all!

Yes, slamming doors is one thing. Another big one is tracking in dirty shoes and messing up the mats.

I hate it when people play with my seat controls in the center floor console. Once you change one of the 9, everything is out of order.
