The "XD" generation Elantras were sold from 2001-2006. GT trim was available in hatch (common) or sedan (rare). Base level was GLS. The Elantra Touring is a re-badged i30cw (compact wagon), and this new GT hatch is the regular i30, not the cw edition.
I'm one of the folks in the server room. I'm also the guy in the garage doing his own work. I just happen to be too poor to afford the right car.
Why? Because Rallycar.
Driven to Eco-competition levels, the CR-Z with manual transmission can reach 116 MPG. I know *I* would love to both drive a slow car fast when I want, as well as save gas if I get caught in stop-and-crawl traffic.
Lambo's are great, Ferrari's are great, ALL supercars are great. However, the world is not straight, flat, and 1/4 mile long. The world has curves, and those curves need to FELT, rather than just seen.
I grew up in an 83 E-350 15 passenger. When it was no longer road worthy, my mom gave it to her family as a farm vehicle. remove the seats and brackets, and they bolted a full size air compressor in the back and used it as a rolling workshop.
More typically seen as Caiman.
The wheel humps are very Mazda-y.
THIS. Yield does NOT equal 'dead stop while you wait for the car 3 lanes to the left to pass when it's 100% clear right next to you.
6. Get educated. Learn what a bumpy, reducing radius, off-camber off-ramp is, and how you're supposed to drive one.
This list should be made up of M-cars and C-cars primarily.
Doors that lock when you put a car in gear and/or get above a certain speed. I *LOATHE* this so called "feature" every time I see/experience it.
I desperately hope that Saab pulls through. By the time they're making products all their own again, without any GM-ification, I may be able to afford one of their awesome quirky little hatches.
4 large for an all wheel drive stick wagon with a free spare turbo, and still half you folks are voting CP? What did you do, grow up in the 90's on SUVs? I guess I'll go curl up on the jump seat of a Crown Vic and beg for mercy from the wagon gods.
Trying to finish the deal that DeLorean organized all those years ago.
Agreed. It scares so many people when there is NO noise, that it's one of the best noises of all.
I can agree with that - I've got kids too. It is a slow car that's fun to drive fast. Don't think of it as a hybrid. It's more like a small-engined car with an electric supercharger attached, especially when you slap the 'Sport' button. Go test drive one. Drive it in Eco just to watch the 50-60 MPG numbers come up -…
That's not a "man." That's an overage juvenile delinquent.
AGREED. It's not a super fast rice-rocket coup. It's not a super-efficient hybrid MPG monster. What it is, from my experiences with it, is a PURE BLAST TO DRIVE. That's what comes as most important.
