Default Annoying things people do in your car.

What are some things that bug you when are people are in/around your car?

mine;

1. People slamming my door.
2. Looking through my glove box. (wtf there's nothing cool in there)
3. Messing with my air vents.
4 When people in the backseat get out and leave my seat forward.

1. Slamming my door/hatch. Really now, do they think it's that heavy?
2. Leaving the rear seats reclined.
3. Eating and leaving wrappers in the rear cup holders. I've even found melted starbursts and cookies in there. Usually my GFs little sister.
4. CRUMBS in the rear.
5. Stepping on the door sills. My car is LOWERED (S-techs), not LIFTED. You just need to step IN, not ON the car...
6. Handprints on the windows.
7. Leave headrests pulled up.
8. Leave the reading light on and getting out of the car.
9a. Sitting real close to the dash. I'M driving, not you. You do not need to see into the mirrors. In fact, you're blocking my view. Please scoot your seat all the way back. kthnx.
9b. Leaning forward while I'm trying to make a lane change, Again, I am the one driving. Not you. Sit back, relax.
9c. Looking back as I'm making a lane change.

Things not done IN the car:
1. Leaning on the car. I already have 2 dents on the front driver's fender from someone leaning on it. And no, they weren't fat.
2. Closing the trunk using any other method than the handles made to use to close the trunk..

I'm sure I'm missing a few things on those lists...

Number 1 no matter what with a tC is opening / closing the hatchback.

Using the button / garnish to open it (we all know it breaks)

Putting their palm on the painted area next to the license plate to close it (there is a sticker showing where to close the hatch from)

    However, I do keep magazines such as Modified Mag, Super Street, etc. in my glovebox so people can read them. That way people can be entertained, and the magazines don't clog up my room.
    DVD's and TV screens also keep your highschool friends just as quiet as they keep five year olds on longer car rides.

    My friends '99 POS Camry is the social, fun car. Why? Because I'm not driving, so I don't have to concentrate.

    Everyone kicks my skirts from the car being so low, when they get close to get in. Also my front lip gets kicked often when people are peeking in the engine or whatever.

    And my #1 thing that ____es me off beyond belief is my girlfriend wacking my rear panel with her purse (below the back window) Every damn time she gets out, lol.

    I always hear a CLANK when she closes the door. Never has left any dings or scratches though. It's like on her arm as she closes the door so it swings and wacks that part of the body.


    Also when people get in my car they always open their window fully and the sun roof then get all relaxed like their cool, LOL
