If you really want a DD, honda civics are still selling for a reason.

What you missed is that the Veloster can get 38mpg's vs an MS3 that gets 25mpg highway and 17 city or a VW that gets 21/28mpg.
Looks are subjective. I have been in the veloster, it has a high quality interior, high quality paint, tons of standard features. And I find the car to actually be very unique in a sea of dull compact commuters. I think its a more attractive car than a gencoupe. The veloster isn't ready to compete against established names on a performance level, but has surpassed them in a price/quality level instantaneously. 29/38 34combined is great for a 201hp sub 7 second to 60 car that costs less than 24k.
this car is less than the MS3 and GTI. But I would say its greater than a civic and corolla if I'm looking for fun on the cheap. Good job hyundai.
