Default a change of pace-- what do you HATE about your ITR??

besides the ridiculous theft rates and the ricer magnet appeal, what aspect do you hate most about your ITR?

for me, it's the highway cruising RPM. sure it's great for acceleration, but holy crap does it suck for noise and gas mileage.

No standard cruise and no sun roof.
Everything else

But ya know this sounds very familiar ...

I hate the fact that I hear little noises and for the life of me can't figure out where they come from.

I get about 30 miles per gallon on the highway, even going into vtec more than a few times... 24-26 around town. I don't know of many other performance oriented cars that can boast that.

I do dislike the uhhh...hmm...

What are Joo talking about??

I think 31-35 mpg on the highway is pretty damn good for a high performance sports car

I really don't hate anything. Ive grown to appreciate the rattles and noises. I actually like them. If I had to choose something that I hate, its my rattling carsound Cat that I need to replace and the CEL that the cat is causing.

I hate that they replaced it with some overweight mac strutted wannabe...

Fighting words I know...but it's the ITR forum and I am biased and an elitist....

Other than that, probably little nit picky things that it didn't come with programmable intermittent wipers....(it rains a lot where I live)

and uh..... hrmmm.... I don't like the stock seats and steering wheel? Certainly easier to fix than say dropping a K20swap into it....

I dont own an ITR but one thing I hate about my Integra is that it is completely prepped for track. It can no longer be driven on the street safely. Oh yeah its loud too!!
