Never been a fan of Hyundai but mid engine cars are awesome.

I think the genesis coupe was an excellent first attempt at a sports coupe and the Veloster is a copy of NO CAR. It's a hyundai original and very handsome. Paint is high quality and the seats are amazing. There are some cheap points in the interior but it tops out under $29000. and with incentives, the veloster can be had fully loaded right under 26k. Plus its easy to mod. An MR Veloster would probably be under 40k.

Hyundai has my respect.

The rear seats are probably gone in this case. But it can probably be a nice set off for people who don't want to spend 70 grand on a 4C.

No fan of Hyundai. Especially not a fan of hatch backs

Yea, but I doubt hyundai is dumb enough to put huge side air vent if the engine is not in the rear section.

Hyundai's aren't bad cars. However, it was Hyundai's transmission and engine that put me off -- neither are very smooth.

I wouldn't say the Z is much better in the regard.

i remember back in the late 80's some korean kid came up to me for no reason to tell me korea is going to bring a car that's going to completely take out the supra (new at the time).

and they came out with the tibron (sp?) like 10yrs later.
