    Man, I have no idea why so many people are saying this is a bland looking car. I saw one in a parking lot today, it just looked so sharp. And in black with the pinstripe rims? Be still my heart. Car looks much better in person. I know that’s a weird thing to say but it’s true.

      It looks OK from the back, however are you sure you looked at it from the front? When we saw one in person we thought just the opposite. That it looked worse in person. Perhaps it was the color. We looked at a white one in person and it was very disappointing.

    I was interested in buying an EX trim but it seemed like pretty bland styling compared to my 2018 Accord Sport. I ended up buying an Acura Integra A Spec trim . The dealer gave me what I wanted for my Accord trade and even knocked $1000 off the MSRP on the Integra. I was thrilled.

      @pointsur67 Рік тому +2

      @Blue Point Yes, it's sitting in my garage. The car is great. The cabin is quiet. It feels more expensive than it was. Two things stick out for me: thr CVT transmission will take some getting used to. They have improved it, but initially, you will be wondering why the car isn't shifting. Another area is the door handles. While they work great, you have this feeling that if you pull real hard or quickly, you might break it. Maybe it's me being gentle because it's new. Otherwise, it's great so far. The car has very good passing power at highway speeds. It looks big, but it feels so light. It feels lighter than my 1987 Prelude Si.

I also hear some people say that Hyundai quality has improved, but some still say it sucks

      Well, here's my experience with Hyundai and kias. Had 2 kias a 2005, and 2007 spectra. Both were decent inside and out. Both were fully loaded vehicles. I drove both to a little over 100.000 miles, and neither required any warranty work. They were super reliable . One needed a new water pump, and one needed a new starter, both after 100.000 miles. I bought a 2017 Elantra new. Its just turned 100.000 miles last month and has required 0 repairs, and has had 0 issues. I have kept it even though I bought a new kia K5 GT LINE with premium package in May of 21. So its now 2 years old, and has 25.000 miles on it. No issues, its got every option you car get except for the Bose stereo. Panoramic sunroof included. Real 8 speed automatic transmission, it was a little over 28.800 dollars. I love it, and am very happy with it.
