WOT: Cars you hate to get stuck behind?, My personal favorite: Prius Options

[william harris]

So, I discovered the nice long twisty, curvy road way to the office every morning. What happens? About once a week I get caught behind the same ole granny driving her damn Prius. Speed limit is 30 and she goes about 20, but brakes before every curve and drops down to about 15. Drives me nuts as there is absolutely no place to pass on this road for about 10 miles. Noticed the gray haired grannies around here are all driving a Prius - must get about 50 miles to the gallon. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Any car with more exhaust noise than power. I hate low horsepower cars with loud exhausts. Can you say poser? i can, POSER POSER POSER.
IMO cars should be faster than they sound, not the other way around.
I'be built up quite a few high performance cars over the past 3 decades, every one of them was relatively quiet. Maybe not quite as quiet as stock, but close to it. There is no real reason to make a street car loud. With a little bit of work you can get almost the same power with a lot less noise. If one or two hp is worth annoying your neighbors, you got issues.
