Canadians, please take all our Hyundais and Kias away from here. They're like rats running rampant. "I sold my car cause this Hyundai has all the same stuff but it's half the price." Well, good luck. Probably the best Hyundai model out there, so enjoy it. |

Nice ride! Just wondering if you had any issues with getting it through a safety inspection or anything like that because it has Imperial instrumentation instead of metric. I know here it's the complete opposite, full metric cars need to be converted into the imperial measurements and, in my opinion, degraded to the DOT style of bumpers and things like that.

| Re: just myself a new toy!
so....for the first time after buying this ride, i decide to check things out and see what its all about. Looking under the hood 1st to check my fluids... Brake fluid...check! Rad fluid...check! Rad overflow...check! Washer fluid...check! Oil...check! get to the part where i check my clutch fluid...not so check! wtf right? lol do some research to find that they use the master brake fluid and clutch fluid under the same unit. haha! other then that this is one clean machine! |

My car is the same thing for brake/clutch fluid. Which also reminds me I need to bleed my entire system in a couple months... Nice car though, there's a couple R-Spec's here on the East Coast, but they're the 2.0's. Also, I find this model year looks wayyyyy better than the newest offering... |

Yikes, I just looked up what the new front end looks like, that front end is pretty bad compared to this car. I do like the hood vents though!

| Re: just myself a new toy!
the first few things on my wishlist in order: Laser detector. Window tint. Grille - Open mouth, No badging. SRI. 1" lowering kit, Bushings and Adj. upper suspension arms. Carbon hood. Exhaust system. For the sound system...dont wanna go too crazy but simply adding a bit of thump in the trunk. Not sure yet what ill run but it will prob run x2 10" subs and amplifier running off the OEM headunit. |
