Why they might be annoying:

    Its usually what people in the states settle for if they can't afford a Mercedes, a Beamer, or a Jag.
    In its infancy, its bigger priority was Formula One than actual manufacturing (Soichiro was big into car racing).
    Like Toyota they designed a robot; or an android actually (Asimo - who looks like Herbie from the Fantastic Four Show).
    Defective airbags killed multiple drivers, resulting in an $85 million settlement in 2020.
    The oil life reset takes friggin forever to reset (first-hand experience).

    It has its own jet program.
    It pioneered the use of the Turbo engine.
