- Taking Delivery of my new i30N DCT Premium Hatchback Phantom Black! (honest review)
Not your ordinary car reviewer video!
Owner's first opinion on the car: the good and the ugly
A video filmed by a Hyundai i30 N owner and lover. Reviewing my first thoughts on the car after such a long exciting wait and touching on some things which were quite surprising.
If you got any questions or want more videos like the video and write your questions below!
I will be documenting my first 6 months and 1 year of ownership, as well as videoing my modification process.
Thanks for watching :)
I just purchased a Kona N today and have been watching all the videos and even though I've seen hundreds of them youtube only just recommended this one to me.
Congrat! You'll love it
I managed to get a premium DCT in Performance Blue two months ago. Right place at the right time as a guy put a deposit down, waited, then in the end finance fell through (poor bugger). I researched everything from Golf’s, Mini, GR Yaris and the Type R. The car represents amazing value and more importantly FUN!!! The car makes me smile every time I drive it and always turns heads. I removed the i30 badge at the rear just leaving the ‘N’ - Looks pretty sweet 😊 looking forward to taking it through the Black Spur!
So much fun! Definitely chose the righr car
Love the car. Mine is in Performance blue :)
Keep us updated with all the changes you make in the car please.
Drive safe
Thank you will do
Love the colour bro! Im currently waiting on the exact same one in shadow grey, sucks that ill have to wait 12-16 months though. Keep posting more vids on the beast 👍🏼
Thank you! Will be well worth the wait. That means a lot keen to get some new content out soon 😁
AHAH spot on with people who have put in orders watching every i30n video known to mankind LOL, Sick vid, looking forward to more !
Thank you!
My '22 N-Line Premium is fun enough (got it after my 2022 Elite was written off by a driver who doesn't know what a give way sign looks like). Can imagine the proper N models are an absolute blast. 👍
Love the N-Line it is definitely enough fun for sure!
I have the Pre Facelift and have the Maxton Design kit on it. Your N will look amazing with it on. I’m in Melbourne too (Northern Suburbs) maybe one day will see ya on the road! Nice car mate!!
Yes! The Maxton lip and spoiler will be on in the nxt few weeks.
I just got in cut and polished and ceramic coated in preparation.
I live inner city so maybe sometime soon 😁
I30N is a beast🤩 ,looking forward for more reviews.
Have a lot in the works! Just waiting for my camera to come back from repair and they'll be up soon
My notification bell is on so I'll be waiting 😜, pity here in South Africa it doesn't come with those nice bucket seat with the N that illuminate
@@thabomogapi2691 That is a shame! It is one of the first things people mention when look at my car
Hopefully in the next coming models they might implement them.
I'm getting a ghost immobiliser, dash cam, all round window tints/privacy glass, all badges blacked out, Hyundai and I30 letters Debadged, brake and front light smoke tinted 🥵
Same thing I’ve done watched almost every review bro and I’ve been waiting 💀 since December last year my dealer told me it’ll come by end of the year and same as yours it’s getting delivered but mines coming from Newcastle to Sydney and when it does come I’ll have my eyes around every corner of the car for any scratches or rock chips never know because we don’t deserve that to our new cars
100%!!! And if there is any issues you will definitely get them fixed for free 😁
That black with the red is very clean 🧼 on the i30N, unfortunately in the USA market there is only the Elantra N and Kona N and maybe if you’re lucky you can find a good deal on a used Veloster N. I ended up settling on a 2023 Hyundai Kona N in racing red, love every moment in this hot hatch.
The Kona N is a awesome car 😁
the US needs these
Cannot believe they are not in the US. But we definitely love our hot hatches more here in Aus
Ayyyy nice i30n i recently got a i20N in the same color looks amazing, good luck keeping it clean in the weather we are having in melbourne though! XD
also I've seen that at the end of the year wireless carplay is finally coming hopefully its just a software update.
Edit: if you have to take it to any hyundai in melbourne i suggest melbourne city hyundai they are great to deal with!
OMG! Very relatable. The amount of dust even after it has been ceramic coated is ridiculous especially after the last few windy days we have had. Yes I can not see why we would not receive the wireless update at the end of the year the car would be perfect then :)
Oh yes! I am currently going to Chadstone Hyundai and they have been great too
@@bwarefilmz i haven’t had mine ceramic coated it has a few chips already as the paint is quite soft unfortunately.
I will be taking it in for paint correction and ceramic coating in a month or so though.
Wait till you can really open the car up once you’ve run it in you’ll have a hell of a time!
Maybe we could even join up at some stage and go for a run through the dandenong ranges the twisties are fun in our N cars!
I think I’ve washed my car 5 times in about 8 days because of how dirty it’s gotten 😂
@@dllstortion9610 I have had no paint chips so far other than the paint defect from factory! But my car is still quite new and I'm sure I will have a lot in due time!
I highly recommend the paint correction and ceramic coating.. It just pops and really shows off how nice the metallic flakes are in the paint. I have to say I wash my car about once a week and stays pretty clean other than the back as the wind and ran hits the rest of the panels and just runs off. When I first got the car I was cleaning everyday 🥲
Yes!! Would love too. I grew up near the Dandenong Ranges and actually planned on going sometime soon. Would be a heap of fun and have a good photo spot up there too
Awesome vid bro. It’d be good to see a long term review of the car especially on the Pirelli P0. Heard a lot of mixed feelings on them.
Can do 😁
They're awful. About 90% of UK users have moved to the other 3 good tyre brands. (3x i30n owner, now driving the DCT Drive-N)
@@MaackyD They definitely not the best but they are definitely not the worst tyre out there!
Thanks for making this video mate :)
No worries!
My guy took it straight to the F1 track hahaha. good one shame the speed limit is low over there.
Haha yes good pick up! I was actually parked on a section of the track.. I'm a big F1 fan
Look forward to next video
Coming out this week!
Just waiting for my white one,only mods I’m thinking is some clip on’s black
Out the Hyundai badge and maybe mud flaps.
The spoiler decal that’s a N.
Tint the windows then see how bad the stereo is as I love me tunes maybe 🤔 upgrade speakers 🔊 but the exhaust may be enough.
I’m in Melbourne we should catch up for a cruise brah
100% do everything you mentioned. i reckon the factory sound of the exhaust may be enough for you, so good for stock.
And definitely need the speaker upgrade. In saying that I have got use to my stock speakers but I do have an upgrade to install just have not got around to it :)
11:44 seen on many cars… I think because the bumper so large, if it is just a small % out of spec when they manufacture it, it won’t sit perfectly flush with the metal… definitely nothing wrong with the car.
I do not even notice it now that its been a few months!
Greetings from Brisbane, mine is in performance blue with the sunroof & 6 speed manual ;)
Nice dude! I really do miss the manual at times!!
Great information mate I’m hoping my I20N will be with me in the next couple of weeks as the ship just docked in Melbourne but I noticed at the dealership one i30n with disgusting rotors in the front that hadn’t been registered yet so I’m hoping mine won’t the grooved like that . I’m not sure if it’s the compliance drivers or the test drivers at the factory but I’ll be interested to hear what that say . I’ve heard disaster stories about the paint on theses so I’ve had notes not to let them wash it because they’ll probably get an apprentice to wash it and not 2 buckets wash and full plastic no removal too so I hope that avoids swirling or scratches and I’d recommend ceramic coating ASAP and possibly PPF on the headlights too .
Yes you are definitely on top off it! I told them the same thing which was not to wash it but the obviously did at some stage or the depot company did! The car has now been cut/polished, ceramic coated and it is the best thing I've done. No more swirls or scratches and the black really pops now.
I can confirm with the rotors now the car being on 1500km that they do smooth out and look great now.. just suprising they look like that.
I would definitely give the car when it arrives a good look over for any paint defects and scratches as well as any really bad panel gaps.
But all of this can be fixed with some care and you will absolutely love the car :)
I hope you get yours soon, the i20Ns are amazing 😁
@@bwarefilmz thanks mate the ship dropped it off in Melbourne around the 14th so I hope I’m in the final 2 week’s waiting fingers crossed 🤞 loved your information on your i30 N mate but why didn’t the hard boot cover not fit? Was it because of the strut brace ? Or something else?
@@roxysdadstacking9968the boot liner doesn’t fit on the sides it’s actually a different shape slightly, even though it says it fits on the Hyundai website and there online system
@@bwarefilmz that’s just crazy that they don’t fit I’m hoping the hard one will fit in the i20 and I’ll get the cloth one that folds over the bumper to avoid scratching too .
Thanks for the vid. I'm looking at buying the exact same spec that you have. Do you think the seats would fit bigger people? Or are they too narrow. And also what's the DCT like?
In my opinion no. They are pretty tight in the Shoulder range. Sorry for my Bad english 😅
Hey I would recommend test driving a premium version and seeing how you like the seats! The standard seats don’t hold you in as tight and are more comfortable for day-to-day driving! But the premium definitely look more luxury
The DCT is really responsive and smooth. I love the way it changes gears differently depending on your selected drive mode too
@@bwarefilmz Thanks man.
wish we had these in the states. but im totally fine with my Veloster N.
100% you are missing out, they are great cars! Yes the Veloster
Finally a black one! Nice one, thanks.
I love the colour looks clean with the panaramic sunroof 👌
@@bwarefilmz I am receiving mine next week. Exact same trim without the bucket seats and sunroof though. I grabbed a cancelled order 😅
@@alittlebytethat’s awesome you’ll love it 👌🏼
So you bought the car sight unseen? In a different state ?
Yes! It is a brand new car. At the time there was a wait time of 16-18 months for this spec. So I skipped the cue and got a cancelled order interstate.
Nice mate. I'm tossing up between this and an RS3.
As i30n owner I suggest buying rs3
This is a hard one! I also looked at rs3 and A45s. What made me choose the i30n was way cheaper servicing and parts are a lot cheaper. Also you can get a brand new i30n with warranty, whereas the rs3 you could get a used with no warranty for the same price 🤷♂️
Depends what your financial situation though but I like the idea of it being brand new with warranty which helps me sleep at night 😂
Oooof I can only watch in jealousy as us Americans only can get the N Line hatchback here 🤧 I'm struggling to find parts/mods for this thing
That is such a shame! Such good cars
Waiting on mine week or two away 😍
You will absolutely love it!
@bwarefilmz can't wait. Didn't want to hand it back on both test drives 😂
Can u send me the link for the peddle an stick ons please when u get time.
@@Mark-zq7xk Such a fun car
@@Mark-zq7xk Hey sorry just saw this comment! The links for the paddles and N logos are in my other videos description
Great insight! Would you recommend a i30n or a civic rs?
Thank you! Depends on your budget. I like the look and power of the i30n but the civic rs is great for a daily. Or even look into a type r if the budget allows 😁
I have same car and I noticed the wear on the seat not long after I had it but I’ve had it nearly two years and it hasn’t really got any worse. Hope this helps.
That's good to know.. thank you
Not many touch this, what about fuel consumption? Of course I expect low mpg from spirited driving, but what about chill/commutes?
When I am in N mode (more spirited driving) it keeps the gears lower and rpms higher so you see about 12L per 100km (not the best but what I expect for a sport car) could even be higher depending how hard you go!
When I am just in Normal/Eco mode casual commutes and on freeway i see it sit around 9L per 100km but I'm sure you can get lower also depending on traffic etc..
UK owner here (sorry for the metrics used) but I've got my car ECU tuned running 365bhp and I've actually got over 48mpg at 65mph commutes, obviously this'll change depending on driving but it can do 40+ average on a long drive. I am currently averaging 21mpg which is pretty low but I am always in N custom and this car gets thrashed every single day.
@MaackyD Ah sweet! Im in the UK as well! Makes it easier, thanks for clarifying!
As much as I'd want all the power, gotta think if it's going to eat my fuel up even on chill commutes
@hue6169 Yeah, I honestly don't think I've had a single drive yet over my 3 years of owning 3 different N's where it's not been redlined once 😂 Don't buy a performance car to pootle along do ya
@@MaackyD 30km to go till I finish the 'break in period'.
I´ve watched in another video one I30 Mica Black Metalic. Are there two different black colour. Are there two different black colours? This is Phantom Black? In Hyunday web only they have it in Phantom black. Sorry my English
Yes, Phantom Black is different from Black Metalic. I do not believe you can get the i30N in Black Metalic though
@@bwarefilmz Thank you for answering me. No, I prefer blue performance. Black Metalic was a limited edition, I think.
Nice car.
Also, just wanting to hear thoughts on the sound system?
Funny you mention this! The sound system as it comes is really bad.. quite flat sounding. I did change the setting yesterday and now it is much better but not fantastic. I will be installing a pioneer amp soon and doing a tutorial on here soon 😁
ooo, what setting did you change if you dont mind me asking, Im waiting on my i30n, estimated in december and i wanna fix the sound system asap
@@cutmesomeslack5284I’ll make a video on it soon 😊
Does anyone know if i was to place an order in this week, how long would the wait time be? I'm expecting 6ish months
Hey! Yes i have heard less than a year. So I would expect 6-12months max.
Please sell it to Korea too
They should have given the hatch the i30n sedan interior. Looks tired.
It is definitely outdated. Fortunately for me I prefer the non-digital cluster and have never owned a better interior than this so I am happy with it. But I definitely see why it is not good enough for some
the i30 SEDAN N looks better it's more up to date
The interior is definitely more modern but I personally can not stand the exterior of the vehicle! If you like the look of the car then yes it is definitely a better choice
헌국인도 i30n 사고 싶어요 ㅜㅜ
