pretty much all the modern crap they include in the car. i dont need ABS, air bags, active suspension, automatic climate control, keyless entry, one push roll down windows, tire pressure sensors, and what ever other knick knacks that are installed on modern cars. all they are is more stuff to break and cost a ton of money to repair, even if you are a do it your selfer and just buy the parts.

The recessed location of front turn signal lights. For example, stop at an intersection and signal left. The driver entering on your right will be clueless as to your intentions.

Way too much electronic crap that will fail.

Things like an alarm that you can't switch off so that it doesn't go off in your driveway or garage.

Seat belts that are mounted on the seat back and chew on your neck.

Excessively complicated radio.

Way too much techie crap, the navigation screen, the menus, and the attempt to make everything "smart". Not to mention the squeaking of plastic parts. I really hate how techie crap has been shoved down our throats.

Also, the styling of most new cars makes them all look alike.

-Lack of personality (they all look the same)
-Amount of technology (way too much of it)
-Inability to choose a certain option without having to get three other options you don't want because its part of a package
-Inability for the average Joe to repair if it breaks
