Which manufacturer has the best/worst "build" website?
Curious to hear everyone's opinion of who has the best and worst building areas in the business.
Mine
Best: Porsche - able to see the options you add on the car and pretty decent explanations of all the options
Worst: Toyota/Lexus - Lexus will not let you add individual options to the car and Toyota's does not work half the time

I don't know about "the best" but I'll agree, Toyota's looks like it was made about 6 years ago by an intern.
Honda's is pretty good, because all the accessories pop up on the car when you select them.

Toyota and Lexus doesn't let you build your own. They have a couple of different pre-selected options and packages you get to choose from. 
And I don't like Porsche either because there are too many options to choose from and I don't know what half of them are.

That was uncalled for...
I actually really like Fords. They have everything set up in a nice easy to do chart, and indiviudal, aswell as total prices are always updated.
I cant really say of any worst ones, I havent tried very many...

The previous one was just fine. Tasteful and uncluttered yet informative..

As much as I love programming in flash I hate it when entire sites are in flash because although they can be the most interactive, they don't always lend themselves to being the easiest to navigate.

Lexus IS individual options
Lexus IS build
For some reason, they don't allow you to put certain options together that should be able to (according to their options and ordering guide). Almost all of their models are like this.
Toyota Example:
Toyota
Try to build a Toyota. Their "build" site is basically just an inventory search engine for the US.

Sounds like you have a pretty serious problem. Its called pron (YES PORN SHITBIRD). Who posted to you? Well you just reacted to a post that wasn't even POSTED TO YOU and was only a basic reply to a basic post from a member to a member. Nice work.

In the end, all I want is to talk about is cars. U obviously have a different viewpoint than mine. So leave me out of ur comments from this point unless u want to argue cars. You started with me, now just end it since in the end there is nothing to gain. I talk shit on peoples opinions on cars, you attack me on none car points for that, think about it.
