New car

[--->>405<<---]

so the last time i bought a car it was specifically for reliability. it was a 2012 honda accord. well im bored with it and ive found what i think is gonna be my next car. it is still pretty conservative IMO as far as pricing goes (low 30's) plus highway fuel economy is mid 20's so it meets both criteria im looking for PLUS i really like the way it looks and it has impressive stats for the money. it is the 2014 Hyundai Genesis Coupe Track Edition.

below is a pic of pretty much the exact set-up i intend to get. the only difference may be the the wheels and i am thinking bright blue metallic for the calipers but thats not set in stone. anyone else ever had one/has one?

and yes i know there are a bunch of other bad ass cars i could get but id be venturing into the 40's or 50's and im not prepared to spend that much yet..

it does have 348HP RWD which i find very attractive. also 0-60 in like 5.2secs..

^^^that whats up!!

I have a buddy who has one and loves it. Its a good middle between power and gas mileage. His is quick.
Great car price and looks.
Only down side is a 2dr but if thats not an issue then your gtg.

[Lunk1]

You will make a nice middle aged drifter lol.

[Darkness]

Are you particular to the fact that it has to be new? Or would a nice clean used be just as ok?

2 door is actually preferable.

meh.. im a new car kind of guy. sure i could prob save a few grand, but i dont like the idea of knowing im buying something someone else has played with first, and doesnt want anymore! brand new in the box is much better!

I'm glad to hear your side. The car market needs new cars to be bought in order to have used cars for people like me. I'm the other way, if I can get a better car for the same money then why not. Back to the car, have you looked at the Scion FRS/Subaru BRZ? Seems quite nice and in your range.

[JinNtonic]

That's nice looking.

Why not a mustang? Or camaro? South korea can not make cars mate

Incorrect, i'm all for American muscle, but they got it right with this car. Very quick and with a little tuning this car can produce a lot more power. I got to drive one of these around for a couple days. Sooooo much fun

[Cuz]

its sharp and attractive most definitely . But I wouldn't invest in a Hyundai, especially 40 or 50k.

well from what i can tell euro apparently they can.. also south korea is like # 2 in IQ worldwide, so they are no dumb asses. also and probably most important: euroholic suggests i should not get one!

oh and ill NEVER EVER buy a ford EVER again..

its low 30s

[Venom]

What about the new 2014 Mercedes CLA starting at $29,000? I'm sure with all the packages you would add on its a lot more then 30, but I love Mercedes.

[Megalodon6]

Nice but I gotta have a truck

[Euroholic]

Im all for rwd v8's mate but come on man. Hyundai is not not known for performance. What they do best is make lifeless boring cars that do what there suppose to do. You should import a gt

[Euroholic]

Enjoy anyone mate but i bet you will get sik of it soon

[austinite]

lol, 405! Keepin' it young! I couldn't drive that. I'll stick to the big ol escalade.

[Euroholic]

If i was american i would have a new f150 in my driveway. When i went to new york city manhattan last year i was pissed off i did not see a real american car anywere!!!!!

[bdos]

i want a new car now! mine just ran out of rego today so pissed longest iv ever owned a car 3 years and 1 day iv never owned a car for more than 3 years time to trade in!

[Cuz]

its low 30s

thanks for correcting me I misread the post, the Camaro and mustang are low 30's now also. I had the new mustang 5.0 loaded with ALL the options for 36k. I traded the car in a year later, it did not live up to hype. I thought I had researched enough but I didn't. Good luck with the purchase.

[Euroholic]

Errrrr tell me about it dude since i was 16 ive spent about 250k on cars. Its tuff being a enthusiast

[crazy mike]

Hey 405, good luck if you get it. Very nice, cool car. Financially, no new car in my future. However I am just OCD about my primo Volvo. It's not fast, put powerful enough with the straight 6 cyl. Very impressive handling and luxury.

Hope you get what you showed us, looks awesome. ...crazy mike

haha

i am a car guy. i had a truck (well 4 trucks) and the gas mileage is too bad, not to mention the price. for me to get one like i woule want would be around 42-45K PLUS the crappy gas mileage. i love little sticks that run!

Car looks bad ass but i am more of a drive til' it's scrap kind of guy. I have an 03 S-10 with 245,000 miles on it and going strong. I love not owing money or shelling out money for something I know I won't take care of in the first place.

[Euroholic]

Enjoy it anyway op. my next car will be the last gt falcon of the line. what a collectible it will be!!!

I love the new dodge trucks

[FRDave]

Check out the BMW 335i. Best car I have ever owned. 'The ultimate driving machine' slogan is no joke. Can find used CPO for under $18k all day long from a BMW dealer with full warranty.

Here are a few pics of my 08 (300hp twin turbo)

Nice car ......talk is cheap.....go get it!!!

[Hazard]

BMW and Mercedes all the way..... When I can I want to buy one. Another one that catches my eye is Cadillac. Loved the cts.....

My buddy had a CTS. Interior felt and looked cheap. He just got a 2013 Audi A4 recently. It's nice but the interior is still not up to par with the BMW's. Surprisingly, the only interior that has impressed me as much as my BMW is the new fully loaded Kia Optima SX. They look and feel nearly identical lol.

Lol.. In due time. As i have gotten older i have learned to be a bit more patient andv deliberate when it comes t o larger purchases

Yeh im with u, but budget wise right now this makes more sense for me. 10k dow puts the payment at $400 which is no biggie. Id prefer not to have to come off 20k and/or have $800 payment.. I could have the hyundai anda abrand new harley breakout for the same money. Much better IMO!

Well yea lol it's much better. I flat out wouldn't ever be paying $800/month

335i fan here, 420+ bhp is easily gotten and the straight 6 engine once serviced right is a proper strong lump. I've seen them over here with 150+k miles on them.

The Hyundai is nice friend has one in sweden with basic mods and he seems happy with it, his other car is an Evo 4 with a 6 engine in it running 450bhp.
