Great Performance Bang for Your Buck.
I absolutely love this car’s versatility! It can haul a surprising amount of things, has a 3rd door for easy backseat access for my kid, and hauls a$$ when in N Mode. And for 30kish msrp, you really do get a lot of performance and driver customizability that seems to be only found in higher priced performance cars. Because of all this performance, the interior is mostly hard plastic, and you don’t get many modern safety or comfort features. Both the shifter unit and steering wheel exceed my expectations in feel and smoothness when driving spiritedly, and the exhaust when the valve is open is unsuspectingly loud with pops and crackles galore, which really adds to the experience of this car. If you’re looking for a do it all performance car and don’t mind sacrificing creature and safety features for an incredible driving experience day in and day out, I highly recommend this vehicle. Dealership interaction has been terrible since owning, so be aware of their shenanigans. Hyundai has this rep for a reason though. Other than that, my only other complaint is the thin paint.
