alrighty, lets get down to business haha
first off, i've not gotten the oh its a hyundai treatment yet, unless its from straight up jealous people, but all comments have been awesome. every time i pull into a gas station people are asking me about it, every time i pull up to an intersection it brings me great joy in watching every single car that goes by and they all turn their heads.
here are the reasons i got it:
-affordable
-RWD
-Stock turbo
-awesome looks
-19's
-four piston brembo's front and rear *(the new one piece design
)*
-HID's (track model)
-push button start with proximity key (track model)
-10 speaker system with a 10" sub and an external amp
here are the negatives: (note: i got my car april 13th, 2009, but i only drive it in the summer)
-stock turbo - its small....really small (but there is TONS of room
)
-internals - some people are reliably putting out 400+hp on the stock block, others have either had deffective con rods or something, because a few people have put windows in their block at sub 300 hp levels. to make serious power right now, your gonna have to either wait and see if other people blow up, or go the safe route and build the motor.
-the tranny - dont be discouraged, change the trans fluid. hyundai uses a really ****ty fluid that makes it feel really notchy. once i changed the fluid that went away
-um...i'm pretty sure thats it...i'm trying to think of more negatives but i cant think of anything haha (besides it being slow in stock form haha)
honestly the car is really great, and its only going to become more popular as the people that are hiding behind their "badge" realize what hyundai is doing: creating an affordable RWD turbo platform with amazing potential.
look into an R-spec. for the price its an amazing deal!!!! if you wanna meet up sometime and check out my car or go for a ride i could probably meet with you someday when its nice out!
