Hatch is nicer.... fastback looks kinda bloated and frumpy.

Maybe a press car. I've seen photos of one in a showroom at Hyundai Australia's head office in Sydney (Macquarie Park I believe).

Sioso, if its a problem or annoying you, grab it at night time, stick in a container and I'll take it away from your viewing.

Isn't it sad that after watching a vid on the I30N I happened to stupidly watch a follow up vid on this great little car by Cadogen of all people .
BIG MISTAKE... He waxed lyrical , almost creaming his undies about the car and that has soured me for life on the I 30N . I hate that sanctimonious git with a passion and he's contaminated my view of the amazingly capable I 30 N now... I need to see someone to get over Cadogenitis .. If I could ever afford it I'll be honour bound to buy a Focus ST or something now. ![]() ![]() |

Theres certainly some cool cars coming out of Hyundai/Kia at the moment for every budget.
The new Kia Picanto GT with 1l turbo, 74kw/172nm for under $19k driveaway. The Kia Rio GT Line with the same 1l turbo and an improved 88kw for $22k driveaway, that tune would be good in the Picanto. The Kia Cerato GT with 1.6l turbo, 150kw/265nm for $32k driveaway. The Hyundai i30N in both hatch and fastback guise with 202kw/378nm(on overboost) for mid $40k. A new Veloster is just around the corner too. And of coarse the Kia Stinger GT 3.3l V6T, 272kw/510nm for mid $60k driveaway. Certainly making the more 'established' brands work a little harder if nothing else which has got to be good for the consumer. |
