The first would be no A/C. That option was never part of this car, so it's not like I can just change out the compressor or something.

The second would be the looks and leaky sunroof. It needs paint and rust repair like a car rescued from the Titanic. (Well, maybe not that bad, but the paint is falling off of every part of the vehicle.) The interior is shot too. We got seat covers though. The roof liner came down because of the leaky sunroof. Then we took it to a place that does car interiors for cheap in Mexico. BIG MISTAKE! First they broke all sorts of things like the little clips that hold the sun visors. They also didn't bolt down the sunroof and guess what happened as soon as I hit the highway. Mind you I had just got the sunroof working and not leaking. Well now it's all bent out of shape and leaks worse than ever. Not to mention it is very noisy. I've tried bending it back, but a lot of little brackets and stuff broke on it so it will never work again unless I get a used one to replace it.

That and I can't seem to get door handles to keep working. The aftermarket stuff lasts a week and then stops working. Right now 2 doors aren't working again. Same with CV joints. They seem to last only a year at best. Had one go out and thought it was the transmission because the boots were fine. But the balls inside the CV joint came apart and the shaft was spinning in the boot.
