What bugged me about the Mazda3 was (among other things) that every single LCD glowed a different color, like they were all sourced from different suppliers. This was only made worse when it had the large center touch screen.

I rented a Chevy Sonic for a business trip recently. The dashboard is ridiculous. Makes you feel like you’re driving a transformer - the cheap plastic toy, not the cool robots. Also, notice in this fine specimen, a whole 322 miles on it, and the CEL is already on - probably to urge you to make sure there is actually…

The new S-Class is infuriating. It’s a gorgeous, beautifully machined and crafted, high tech, full service massage parlor of an interior, but that fucking clown...

I hate the number pads. Looks so 80’s. That’s why I won’t get a base Mustang.

Really? My old (‘02) 9-3 was probably, from an ergonomic standpoint, the best car I’ve ever owned. Loved that thing.

It’s bad enough that it isn’t a manual, but my wife has had an X5 and a 535xi wagon with this setup and I’ve yet to see anyone else get in the car and drive away without demanding an expletive-filled tutorial. Shouldn’t selecting a gear be as intuitive as steering or braking?

I rented a.....Toyota Matrix a few years ago. It was baffling, how a car so much bigger than my Focus had so much less room inside.

What!? I thought this was awesome! I mean I only used it for 3 minutes, but it even gives you resistance and a nice little haptic feedback! I seriously thought this was one of the best things I’ve seen. One button, mouse, puck thingy to control EVERYTHING quickly and easily. Maybe I’m just dumb.

Psh, who needs steering wheels - Saab logic

Butbutbut... it makes a “J”.

2010 Dodge Avenger. Just don’t.

First gen CTSs, what were they thinking?

All I have to say about that interior...

Nissan takes the cake.

Hands down the ugliest I’ve ever seen was a 2007 Saturn Ion. Buzz, your girlfriend, WOOF!

Yupp, so many knobs and gauges on the first generation. But hey, old cars are complicated sometimes.

Even though I own one, I’m going to nominate the Xterra/Frontier. The design is ugly (whats up with the steering wheel and the weird interior door pulls) and it’s a sea of cheap plastic.

Chevy Aveo. Made from the same materials as a Happy Meal toy.

Pontiac dashboards in the early 90’s always drove me nuts. 4 separate buttons for the lights? 4 more separate buttons for the wipers? A steering wheel full of buttons for God-knows-what? Don’t even get me started on the radio!

Base model Fords get my vote.
