We had a black dude about 6'5"+ tall cool as hell and bona fide war hero in my reserve unit. He drove a Kia Rio and he was the happiest Rio owner. It was hilarious how he fits in the car lmao!

Did you just say all Velosters come with torque vectoring?

That’s what sells the car. The first gen Veloster pretty much sold on its styling alone. In reality, it was just a funky styled Accent.

Praising the first gen Veloster is like.. I mean literally praising the last gen Accent. It was in the same class with the Fiesta not the Focus. The 2nd gen is a totally different ball game though.

Insert: Bender “Neat!”

The i30 N (mechanical twin) is well received in Europe. I’m sure the Veloster N will do fine.

I’m guessing base model 30k+ then up to high performance trim 50k+ and BMW will charge 10~20k more

Why not just come with beds already.

Genesis’s been planning a flagship coupe. That might be it. Hyundai isn’t going to build a track focused super car but a luxury coupe, yes.

Hyundai Nemesis...it was a rumored render years ago but then think about how fitting the name is.

and only one will actually hit the market.

The K900 wasn’t even intended for the US market also it didn’t even fare well in its home market. People with money opted for the Equus or the imports. The K900 was a good sedan but lacked any wow factor.

Motorcycles have the power to weight ratio...by far but the weight definitely benefits in putting the power down at launch. Simple physics.

That... was impressive.

Yup, this is going to be my cheap beater. I sold my previous cars once they reached a few years but I’m kind of stuck with this one until I get a good paying job. I want a convertible!

I agree, it sounds like it has something but then there isn’t much also boring unless really tested. The rear suspension issue is quite a common thing in economy cars but yeah, it kills the ride.

I rented one. Pretty satisfied except how they set up center console. The shifter was always in the way of HVAC control.

I get near 30 MPG but that’s pretty good for non hybrid driving in LA traffic.

It’s not a car for enthusiasts. I bought this when the gas price went crazy. It drives well for what it is. I call it a good appliance. Everything works well like new after almost 7 years. I also think it’s a damn good looking appliance.
