I believe that “endura” is what covered those bumpers.

Great color!  Keep it, maybe drive it a bit less often.

why we can’t get nice things is beyond me.  I do love my veloster, wish it was an “N” lol

I ran this through my head at the beginning of the pandemic, and yes renting is cheaper by far, but it’s not really flexible either. If you want to save $$ on a rental you need to get to Jersey City, or else with insurance you are paying over $150/day. Thats just a hassle with a dog (like I have). Insurance is what…

This, I own a car in manhattan and street parking isn’t bad at all.  Chat up the regulars on the block and it makes street cleaning easy, you all double park and then stand in your spots and chat, works great!

$90 for each floorpan.  Agreed you need to know how to use a welder, but I bet you could find someone on taskrabbit or a local body shop to do them.

Second this, Veloster is where it’s at here, you can get the MT in all trims if I’m not mistaken, and the N is MT only.

I have a veloster the back seat is fine, good leg room, you do have to duck to get into the 3rd door a bit but its perfectly acceptable.

Erik has the right answer, tho maybe go for the Turbo or the non turbo Veloster. I have a gen 1 non turbo and even it is pretty peppy. Get a turbo and it will be even better! No need for the N, can easily get a Veloster for under $25k.

‘05 CRV’s are $7500?? even with the low mileage that seems a bit steep. I paid that for my ‘13 Veloster, used prices are mad crazy ATM (tho I bought mine in may so maybe I got lucky).

but $7500?  Pretty steep for a 15 year old car.  I just got a 2013 Veloster for that much!

Right? I wonder if these extenders are water cooled or air, can a wankle get enough cooling? this would change the packaging quite a bit!

this is interesting, would this motor be air-cooled or water?, be tough to package all of that in that space wouldn’t it?

I literally just got one while I took my post lunch nap (nice working from home lol). its so annoying and I got them even before I bought a car lol

whats wrong with a 2005 acura? I must have missed his “my car sucks” articles.

Airbus just started delivering the A320 this was glass, but I get your point, most of non military aviation was analog.

In better shape I could see this as a unusual radwood entry.  But its 1k too much, needs too much attention.

I don’t hate it, but I don’t like it either. I bet in person they will look fine. Not sure why every manufacturer is going for “aggressive” these days, squinty headlights, tons of hard edges, huge grills.

The engine breathes through a cold air intake which likely does little other than make noise

I know I maybe alone in this but I think this is a very sharp looking car, and the interior looks light years better than previous versions. I would own one if I were in the market for a luxo car.
