Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai
I'm pretty excited to see Hyundia "N-ing" their cars. They seem to be one of the only companies building cars these days that even try to to be fun and exciting to drive. The vast majority of auto makers today simply want to build the next giant pickup or anonymous/look-alike blob-shaped SUV that drives like a marshmallow...regardless of the powerplant.
Based on the EV infrastructure gap in the US, I think the automakers are really missing the advantages you can gain from hybridization, and not just plug-in hybrids, but series hybrids too. They offer up the best of both worlds for where we are today. This is where I applaud Toyota. I spent the last week on vacation in Washington State driving a Rav4 Hybrid. It was actually a really good vehicle. Despite going up and down the mountains, which meant a lot of time running the gas engine, it still got amazing gas mileage. When stuck in Seattle's crushing traffic jams or just normal suburban traffic, it ran in EV mode quite a bit. The cut over between battery and gas engine was unnoticeable to the driver.

I've seen that on a couple other cars. Audi's maybe? Really like the idea. If you have a decent LED DRL strip, there really isn't a need for an additional light fixture in the headlight housing. I would think it would lower costs and manufacturing/electrical complexity. My BRZ has a similar DRL and a seperate blinker housing in the front headlight housing and it seems really silly.

Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai
Those are the optional forged wheels, a $750 option but $1900 if you order directly through Shark Racing.

That’s a great price if they are true one piece forged aluminum and not “flow forged”

Took it to them again and I told them what I did and they cleared it...same thing happened so I turned around and left it.
I already have a case opened with Hyundai corporate and they told me to go to another dealership A tech is a tech but their service manager suggested I clear the code too, he did offer to look at my car but I'd need to drive it over there in limp mode, my dealership is very close by.
I'm not sure how this is going to turn out, anyone have a suggestion, not too confident right now in the brand I love right now
