ITT: small details that you don't like in/on cars
>tachometers that are x100 instead of x1000
>>14890375
>tach doesn't have a redline
my first car had this aftermarket textured rubber brush thingy in the door jamb and it was fucking perfect for getting sand off the bottom of your shoes
wish i could find them
>car doesn't have a temperature gauge
This is the absolute worst.
Wood trim, anywhere, on any car, fake or real. I can't stand it. Looks like utter shit and I wish that everyone who forces wood trim to be bundled with any other option would die in a fire.
Sunroofs/t-tops/targa tops too. I really really don't want one but to get the good engine in my car it had to have one.

What the fuck were you thinking, BMW
>>14890464
This about wood too
>>14890464
... Z32?
My car doesn't have a clock. Anywhere. It's oddly really annoying.
>>14890480
Nope, Legacy GT. It has a sunroof and wood trim on the window switch, radio, and center vent trim (and around the shifter if auto), but the Outback has black. They got it ass backwards one which one should have which color trim IMO. I plastidipped all the wood trim black since the texture kind of matched the door panel texture, at least better than spray paint would.

I hope the tundra parked in your space today.

I'll let you know.
automatic shifter boot made to look like a manual one
>>14890375
I went from a ford ranger to a jetta so this change was jarring.
I was wondering why 30 felt so fast then I noticed that wasn't the speedometer I was looking at
>>14890825
Something that really bugs me about my car is not having fully adjustable suspension from the factory. I mean it's a sports car after all
I guess they thought the Miata was good enough
>climate control is part of the radio
>>14890869
I know that feel, family
>>14890375
>ute doesn't have a tacho
>the rear is incredibly light and always loses traction.
>>14890428
this one and
>car has no tach just speedometer
REEEEE
>Car has 160 MPH on dash
>Only manages 112
Hyundai is the worst about this, but others are guilty of it too.
Big numbers ≠ "fancy"
No tachometer, tfw learning how to drive manual by sound.
>>14890375
>instrument cluster is perpetually lit up like a christmas tree
Gets on my nerves 2bh
>>14891522
You just have to know at what speed to change the gear
>>14890499
Stick a battery powered clock on the dash, preferably something that has a dim glow in the dark so you can see it at night. That's what I did
>>14891538
My ranger has a dial that adjusts how bright the dash is. The aftermarket radio is still bright as fuck though.
Radio power button not part of volume knob.... LOOKIN AT YOU HONDA

I just bought an MGB yesterday

x100 tachometers are the most disgusting shit out there along with cars that dont have grab handles at all or have them on the a pillar
i just want to find out who tought no grab handles faggotry was a good idea and shit on his grave, its so fucking uncomfortable

Are you me?
I went from a 01 ranger to a 09 jetta how u like it?
It dosnt make me mad or anything, but I think cars should have true signals that aren't just blinking brake lights. Also on the topic, 3rd brake lights should blink rapidly if ABS kicks in. If you're braking so hard ABS turns on, people should know you've encountered some shit.
>>14890464
Disagree completely.
Automakers used to model all car interiors after home furniture, and of course some were better at it than others.
I hate getting into most modern cars. I don't want to spend time behind the wheel of a car whose interior is modeled after a motorcycle, or a computer lab, or Walmart tupperware.... I want expensive furniture in my expensive automobile.
However I do agree that fake wood is the absolute worst and any product planner that uses it should be executed.
>>14890375
Rotate your pic?
>>14892952
I think this is a thing on some cars now
I'll often flash my brake lights on and off if I have to stop on a freeway due to traffic, it's amazing how many people don't notice until the very last minute that traffic isn't moving
>>14890375
This is a yuropoor thing.
Pedal activated parking brakes
>>14890375
I believe they did that to make it even. Two digits on the right, two digits on the left.
>>14890464
FUCK t-tops shit is so tacky. and like EVERY car on craigslist is a t-top
>tiny digital tachometer
I barely look at it anymore, but still. Why mazda?
>>14892952
>I think cars should have true signals that aren't just blinking brake lights
Holy shit this. I hate turn signals that are shared by the brake light. It looks so cheap.

It must be illegal in Australia, because I've never seen it.
But when I visited america it annoyed the absolute fuck out of me.
Most of all that shitty mustang blinker which animates sideways.

I've seen it on Mercs and BMW Ms they were done right but I saw it on a Nissan Z, don't know if it was after market but it blinked so annoyingly fast I felt like I was watching an early 90s Japanese kids show.
>>14893181
cuz muh mclaren dash
>>14890428
Oh god this, mind you, I can get it to display on my BMW but I have to access the hidden menu, plug the passcode and select it.
>>14893158
that is pretty dumb though. It would be better to have it different so the driver can distinguish quickly.
>>14893014
>wood is okay
>no wood in example
I do get what you mean though. Marble and leather look great btw.
>>14894871
That is black poplar wood in his pic m8.
>>14891148
learn to use your ears
>>14891522
same boat, about to drive a 1990 toyota across country and it has no tach
>>14894674
Yeah, it's only here in the land of burgers.
Pretty sure it's illegal mostly elsewhere, and when others get our cars, they add amber markers.
