No smoking
No dirty feet in the car, shake your feet off before entering the car or tap it against the plastic under the door and clear off any big things.
Don't treat the car badly, I've kept it in good shape and so have others for such a long time and that's with reason, treat it carefully. Yes, it's a damn car, but it's my damn car.
No eating
Don't talk ****** about my car, especially if you don't have one, I'm very glad I even have car let alone being able to complain about it. I like my car and plan to keep it for a long while, you have no room to talk about it.

Also, the car will not be taken out or driven by others, I don't care if you'll bring it back with a full tank of gas.

Since I drive a Honda, people can do pretty much anything. I only have some rules:

- no smoking
- seat belts must be worn if the car is moving (even if I am pulling over to a parking spot--I hate it when my mom takes off her seat belt when the car is still moving and I'm about to park)

When I get a nice car (probably a sports coupe of some kind), then I probably won't let people eat or drink in it (including myself). I'd also ask people to watch the seats when they get in the back.

Try not to make a mess while eating.

No smoking, no fighting with other cars, no drinking, no screwing with controls unless I say it's alright, and for my girl no starting sh1t with me while I'm driving.

Seat-belts are a MUST.

I've had two people argue with me about not letting them smoke in my car. Once it was a friend, and I punched him in the shoulder and threw his cig out the window, and the other was some friend of a friend that I didn't invite. I kicked him out of the car, he walked home.

That may indeed be true, but don't forget your own part in it. Apparently you let them do it.

I definitely wouldn't tolerate someone telling me how to drive. I wouldn't stop the car and kick them out, but I wouldn't give them a ride next time unless they agreed to cut it out. Unless it were my mother, but she never does that anyway.

That's not an option, silly.
