I love this damn car

[tak82v2]

looks like a shoe..

Hyundai's main word's are value and quality..

i wish it was performance engineering..value and quality..
the MC is for people who want to be pampered..

a disgrace..to the line of accent enthusiasts..

[Erikgsi]

It looks like a lupo and a astra (an older one) mixed together.

X3 accents own man, they last a good bit of time!

I like it, but i will not buy one. I got about another year before i trade up.
Up is the word. I have really seen the ugly side of Hyundai and disapointed to say I will not stick with the car. Disapointed because i like that accent and i always wanted to go to a Tib. But Hyundai wont make another penny from me.
I feel like getting a Honda Civic now. (cringe). I know i know- let me have it.

OH YAH, this is what I'm talking about. Just a scratch of what is to come.

I'm getting on of these car right now, just waiting for in to arrive. Getting every option but the interior carbon kit, and 17" wheels. Carbon kit is way too expensive and I'm getting my own aftermarket wheels.

such a nice car, a turbo would've been the right thing to do,

nice car but it's more skin and less meat..


what i like: Ground effects kit & Sporty rims, Euro hatch styling,
decently civilized modern interior with improved materials,EZ operate HVAC controls,

what i don't like:anemic & noisy engine, pricy performance add ons that don't benefit much,easy to scratch interior plastics, UnPrecise and notchy shifter linkage.
ebay quality simluated CF dash, no real drivng excitement, why no turbo?

judgement: Hyundai should learn how VW doe's hatche's and then compete properly.

let me tell you the the SE here in US is like the SR without the sideskirts and "chrome tip".
I bought the 07 SE last August and have updated to the CAI from Hyundai and the Strut-bar, plus the ECU reprogram (done in-house, Hyundai service).
Plus I converted to a Borla mufler with a dual-tip and the car is a screamer. I would say that a Honda SI is the only car that will have the chance to show me some lights... But not for long!!!

Enjoy the car man, it is a good investment and the fit and finish, to tell you the truth, compared to the FIT that I was looking at is WAY BETTER!
