yea its called the junkyard, lol. my 97' celica has crank windows, as does the back seats of the 04' neon. i think its the other way around. having manual windows/ transmission makes one appreciate automatic windows/ transmission. nothing is hott about leaning all the way across to roll down windows on the far side just to hit on some babes. you really can't say roll down windows beats an electronic window that rolls all the way down/up with a push of a button (dead battery instances aside). just because some of us are young, doesn't mean we don't appreciate devices that replaced stuff we had to do manually. hell even the battery replaced the action of manually turning the crank at the front of the car.

manual seats beats electronic seats. its way faster. although i cant think of an instance of manual windows being better. its bad enough the controls in the sky is way out of reach, imagine the range of motion of trying to crank the sucker, pure hell i say.


and if you think the cobalt is crappy, try driving the aveo. i took the thing to vegas. i though i was gonna be blown off the road by the wind even when there wasn't much.
