I love my ‘13 Veloster 6MT (wish it had more power) and will upgrade it in a few years to maybe a rspec/n, or I may go mazda 3 turbo. But I hope the rumors of its demise are un true.

I missed this article, I hope it turns out not to be true, loving my ‘13 base veloster, but in a few years I want to upgrade to a turbo/rspec, then again I would go used again lol. I wonder how many they sell each year in the us?
As a 2013 Veloster owner I take issue with this statement! Actually I don’t (lol) performance is adequate at best, handling is great tho, and I love rowing through the silky smooth 6 speed. It could use 20-30 more ponies, which they have in the new ones.
I’ve long thought resurrecting Pontiac as a Tesla fighter would be a win for GM.
Also rob cheated someone in the comments for the GoldWing pointed this one out I almost lost my breakfast then, seeing it in person makes me want to go on a hunger strike lol
34 as of this min lol show yourselves!
my bad, I meant first gear had no syncro, 2-4 did!
Having learned to drive a stick on a 63' XKE (no syncro 4 speed), I love seeing this. My dad (and friends) restored one in the early 80's, never looked this nice! Guessing these were restored by the factory, also wonder how much lol
I had an 89' 2 door SE 5speed, this was the facelift year (inside and out). Was one of my favorite cars, plenty of power great gas mileage, only maintenance was a clutch at 70k. Problem is my dad and I did it and lost the drain plug for the tranny, after 6 months of keeping it topped off I sold it (disclosed the…
unless I’m wrong, Nomads were middle/late 50's.
is this why I found it kind of charming? (also a Veloster owner) it surely is a shitbox, one I didn’t know existed, a nomad wow.. ND for me, maybe $2500 I would change my mind.
its fantastic, I was so angry at the end (and crying) at the nasa managers who say “they sleep well at night cause they made the right decision at the time” I was like WTH!
yes I thought the same thing! I know lots of manufactures aped the corvair styling so this must be similar.
this we’ve been clamoring for this!!
seriously david just tow it back and sell the Lexus back home, this is just crazy even for you! lol peak DT!
haha nice catch on my typo :-)
I lusted after the Grand Prix in HS/Freshman year of college, wanted to get one with a stick (almost did but judgment got the better of me). This looked so cool back then, not so much now lol
add “holy grail” lol
I wouldn’t call that drive train good, at least from my experience, the Honda 5 speed’s of this era were junk. My mom and her sister owned MDX/Pilot and both transmissions blew up!
One easy way to find this out for your vehicle is go to crutchfield’s site you can put your car into a wizard and it will spit out compatible recievers and the extras you need to get things like steering controls etc.
