Cars That You Unjustifiably Hate?

I hate the Lexus GX and 90% of those who own them. They’re always owned by aging soccer moms who think they’re still hot shit because they drive an old Lexus SUV. Also, most of the people that drive like they’ve just downed a massive bottle of Xanex on their way to pick up their kid from dance.

I actually really like the Land Cruiser, especially the J200. But Lexus GX? Grrrrrr, fuckyoufuckyoufuckyou.

I don’t see getting any Lexus SUV over the Land Cruiser unless it’s cheaper. Sure, a Lexus is great and all, but the Land Cruiser is the halo car for the entire Toyota line, along with the JDM-only Century. It’s the top of the top of the top of the line for the biggest carmaker in the world.

You might want to correct the first half of your post; the GS 350 is an awesome car.

I’m gonna bit nitpicky and say that’s a GX. And I do see where you’re coming from. They’re pretty awesome cars if you ever get to drive one. Smooth as heck engine and ride, reliable as heck. Sad that the community (which includes me and my family LOL) made you hate the car.

By any chance, do you have any private school stickers anywhere on that car?

Pretty much all Alfa Romeos. Mainly fueled by the Top Gear bollocks that to be “a real petrolhead” you must own a shitty rebadged Fiat because nothing says passion and soul like cross brand corporate structure.

Were you the person that picked up a GX some time last year and posted it about on here? Did you get one of the early ones or the ones with the gray wheels and the Kinetic Body Control.

Audi Q5. Especially in a dark color. Douchnozzle car of the decade. I have yet to encounter an owner/driver of one of these things that isn’t a total idiot/dick in one way or another... As such, I have an irrational hatred of these cars.

Drive an old GTV6 or Milano Verde. Sure, their current lineup (4C, and hopefully the Giulia, excluded) is pretty bleh, but back in the day, when the name still meant something, they were something truly special.

The current lineup of Ford products. Mostly based on looks, mostly based on the annoying amount of praise they keep getting on here. Also, any post 71 Mustang, and the Porsche 911.

Which Audi is it? Yeah, their drivers are pretty bad... Once BMW quit being cool among the douchbag set, they all started driving Audis.

That is a justifiable reason though. Mine is the GMT400, because 95% of the owners are Trump supporting, NASCAR loving, borderline white supremacist, 17 year old children, who wave the Chevy flag all the way to the transmission shop.

But they weren’t talking exclusively about those cars. They on multiple occasions included the garbage they’ve been shoveling out of Italy for the last 20 years and to my dismay way too many people live by that bullshit. To be blunt, way to many people live by Top Geat’s bullshit anyway but that piece in particular has always rubbed me the wrong way.

Prepare for some completely subjective and poorly explained hate. I love to hate. I love hate so much. Thank you for allowing me.

I hate the early 80s SL.

But that might change. I don’t hate it with a passion, I just don’t like it.

I hate all Opels after the 70's. Some prime examples here.

Look at this Euro trash piece of tuning shit. Fuck them with their spoilers and plastic bits. Jesus christ.

Then, the 944. I hate it. I hate it so much. It’s so fucking ugly I just can’t get over it. It looks so cheap. The back of it is trash, looks like a Yugo or some shit. I wish they all collectively burn down tonight, as well as all documentation, images, video, audio and other human records and collective memory of it. I would even allow the Top Gear episode which features it to be edited. And Top Gear is the Bible. That’s how much I hate the 944.

I know a few guys here have them, and to you I give my sincere apologies, but only because we’re on Oppo. I love you and your cars. Your 944s are just fine.

I also kind of hate the 996 with it’s fugly headlights.

I hate the camaro. Almost all versions of it. I have no idea why. I can’t shake the feeling that it’s nothing more than a copy of the Mustang. And it looks like a washing machine.

I also hate the Transformers.

I also hate Hyundai.

And everything they do. Especially in the last few years.
GET THE FUCK BACK IN YOUR CAVE YOU PIECE OF SHIT. I hate them. Who the fuck do they think they are?! Making a hyunday luxury car. Go fuck yourself in the ass, hiunday. Rot in hell. Your cars, new or used will be worth 50 bucks to me for the rest of my life.

I like the Kia’s versions, though. No problems with those. They look cool.

I hate the Enzo, as well. The F50 a bit less, I can tolerate that.

...

Where as the F40 is God. I would kneel before the F40 and suck it dry.

Thank you for your considerations.

I get where you’re coming from. I think a significant moment in the modern car enthusiast experience is the first time you come to realize that Clarkson isn’t infallible, and that while he’s often in the right he’s just as often in the wrong.

I think one of these is going to be my next car. They’re smaller then the FJ100 which is better off road. Also a 2005 one of these is the same price or cheaper then a 2000 Land Cruiser or LX. It’s a no brainier for a off road vehcile. Plus I’m getting a “Have you seen the Starbucks?” sticker for it.

Come to the Southeast. I will take dealing with any Civic owner or V6 Mustang owner all day over a young GMT400 owner for 20 minutes, at least for those around here. Something about “taking our guns”, the border, Muslims, vaping, dipping, how baby Jesus drove a Chevy, and Mexicans taking our jobs will come up in those 20 minutes. Also, how much he needs American Force’s will be the big subject.

I’ve got no issue with the car itself, but I do have an issue with how whenever you go to a car show, whether it’s completely open or only for pre-war ukranian electric cars, will have a row of stock and/or over-chromed modern Corvettes with their retiree owners telling each other all about how only three 2006 Corvettes came with the beige interior, automatic transmission, yellow paint, and no other options. They’ve become the Camry of sports cars.

I hate every single V8 body on frame SUV being driven by moms or insecure people who have NO use for them. Same goes with full-sized pickups.

Here’s what I really hate though:

Who at Volkswagen thought a 5-cylinder in a field full of fuel-efficient 4-cylinders was a good idea? Oh and I also sort of hate 6-cylinder mid-sized sedans now, they’re so stupid and pointless.

That might have been me. Bought a 2004 in black and without kdss. It needed a timing belt replacement when I first bought the car but that's been the only item so far.

Oooooh I have many. Some might not be unjustifiably, but I don’t care.

Ok, that’s about it. I’m generally a “all cars deserve some form of appreciation in some way, shape, or form” kind of person, but these just get on my nerves, either because they are stupid, unnecessarily ugly, or driven solely by douches. (or all of the above)

I absolutely hate the pre-facelifted Chevrolet Traverse, the one with this terrible rear end:

It looks like they forgot to design the back and had to throw this half-assed effort together at the last second. They probably did, because originally there was only the Saturn, Buick, and GMC versions.

3rd and 4th gen Camaros. 305 V8 and 3.8 V6 auto models specifically. Mostly thanks to the kids in my tech shop that own them.

They all think their sad excuses for muscle cars are not only faster, but all around better cars than my M3. Never mind the fact the two 4th gens have been wrecked already and one has the front suspension and engine removed and the 3rd gen blew TWO pistons through the block at the same time. But my cars the bad one here.

I used to love the hell out of both gens, but yeesh.

But that 5 cylinder is a perfectly good engine, and really provides the right amount of power for a car the size of a MK5, which really aren’t very small.

Any 2007-up CR-V They’re just so ugly. and that swoopped rear window makes for a WONDERFUL huge blind spot. Plus Honda’s AWD system is a joke. I know a family that bought on so they could make it up their steep driveway, cuz their Civic couldn’t. They still have to walk up the driveway in the winter.

the 2011 remodel improved the front end a lot, but the rear almost got worse.
