This phrase makes me think you’ve never owned an actual shitbox.
It has power, it gets good fuel economy, from the right angles it looks pretty good. Power windows, Bluetooth... I could go on with features that were reserved for luxury cars only a decade ago.
Granted the car has some QC issues with the interior, but overall this cars pretty good as far as equipment goes, especially when you consider the driving dynamics.

He has never owned a real tin with roll up windows. Lol. Aka seventies or eighties Japanese car. Hell even some in the 90’s were still in that category.
Indeed our cars are from shit boxes and this comes from a person who has owned some nice cars hell I do own some nice cars. A BMW is far from that Category especially a M3.
For a what is based off an econo car indeed our cars are well equipped and because of that and the basic reliability of them they are not shit boxes. A mid 90’s Hyundai,KiA, Daewoo where definitely shitboxes quite literally.
To qualify for shitbox categorization once has to have A: no power windows. B: possibly no factory AC, C; tin can body work i/e doors that literally rattle when closed see 70’s Datsuns. Toyota’s Hondas etc. Lol
and possibly completely unreliable drivetrains.
Now when I look at our cars I see and hear doors that
close nice and solid. Nothing wimpy about them. Factory AC that works well., A engine that is robust and a good clutch and trans. .
HMMMM where is the shitbox I don’t see it here.
I think the negative naysayers aka complainers on this forum go out of there way to overplay stuff.
I do not have a problem with my paint adhering even though I will be the first to admit its cheap Waterbased paint.
Guess what welcome to modern factory green mandated paint period all the manufacturers have suck ass paint and paint jobs. Ferrari is notorious for it!
Oh blend
door actuator you know what I see that on other makes as well its not something that Ford is the only one it happens on. Its actually a little common my friends Dodge does it. Lol
Hmm tran is a little noisy due to possible factory underfill ah fixable with a fluid add.
Oh and guess what Warranties take care of a lot of this stuff crap dealers have nothing to
Do with the actual build of the car. Its not a bad build at all. I am now just over 10k and have not had any major problems not that it should but a shitbox would. Lol
