Im happy with it but not overjoyed. Obviously, I understand why they used it. Styling is so-so. I like the wheels and rear, side and front is just meh. Im very disappointed a DCT isnt an option. My slushbox auto 8 in my Genesis feels like a bulldozer compared to my girlfriends DCT in her Veloster. If I lived in Montana id get a manual, not so in south Florida traffic. No DCT, thats a deal breaker for me. So I plan on driving my Genny into the ground and having no car payment for a while. Until I get the itch...Hyundai/Genesis......https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...y-the-numbers/
With the way cars hold their value - in particular Hyundai (well I guess you could say ALL of them except maybe Hondas and Toyotas); if you can wait it out for 2yrs - probably be able to find a used one for a really good price. I know I'm going to hold out for a couple of years with my current Z - mod it a little and then see what comes of the used car market - I would like to get a CTR if possible but the Veloster N is definitely high on the list. Keep the Z bc the value won't be worth trading it in at that point and use the new car as a daily for the most part.
