-very harsh ride.
-horrible turning radius.
-Floaty steering to the point of wondering if the wheel is even attached.
-Redlines sooner than z. uncomfortable seats. A clutch so light that it had no bite point.
-The steering wheel 9/3 spokes or whatever they were called were so thick that the wheel was uncomfortable to hold.
-Costs 24k yet didn't even include XM radio
-got stuck on a sunny day
-30mph had to be in 5th gear or else it was 4k+ rpm
-vtec didn't kick in until 5.5k, and redlines at 7.1k
-glare on dash made reading speedo impossible
-bluetooth disconnected frequently on multiple phones
-interior was loud
-stereo was worse than a 90's pinto
-backup cam was useless at angles more than 10 degrees
-THE KILLER: the car stalls when it looses traction in first gear during a dusting of snow. Traction slips, so the engine throttles itself to under 500rpm and stalls ITSELF
That's just stuff off of the top of my head. It truly was a craptacular car. I've never experienced such hatred for an automobile. My breaking point was realizing I couldn't do a 3 point turn on a 4 lane road from the turning radius being so abysmal. Forget about how I got stranded 9 seperate times with a simple dusting of snow with winter tires on.
