Hurry, /o/, tell me why I shouldn't get this Veloster Turbo Rally Edition.

I was all in on a Fiesta ST or late model GTI but this beats both.
>>
>>14612588
Yeah, it beats both at having really shitty ride quality
>>
>korean econobox with sporty looking exterior that pretends to be fun but really isn't
>beating a Fiesta ST
b8/10
>>
>>14612588
Beats it at what exactly?

k.

>>14612606
Speed, ride, toys, style, uniqueness
>>
>>14612630
>speed
Prove it.
>ride
Ive driven the korean shit boxes and its far from even a ford
>toys
Like what? Any electronic crap can be had with the fiesta as well.
>style
Agree to disagree here but taste is subjective
>uniqueness
>hipster term for "i need attention"
>>
As someone who drives a Kia with the same 1.6 Turbo and six speed transmission:

Your statement is objectively wrong.
>>
>>14612660
Ive diven the genesis coupe. The 6 speed was floppy and vauge. The 2.0l turbo was peaky and faaar from smooth.
>>
>>14612672
You realize that's a completely different car with a completely diferent engine and gearbox, right?
>>
>>14612660

I mean to quote the OP for this.
>>
>>14612681
Unless their gearbox and engine quality did a 180 in just over a year, it doesnt matter. The car was a 2014.
>>
>>14612652

The automatic Veloster turbo puts a 6.3s 0-60, the manual 6.7 with a 14.8 quarter with auto and 15s with manual

the Fist runs a 0-60 of 6.7, 15.2s quarter
>>
>this beats both

came for the bait
>>
>>14612705
Faster in a straight line, ok.
How does it compare in turns?
>>
>>14612660
Different cars, different tune.
>>
>>14612716
>but only faster with the automatic.
>exactly the same with a manual.
Yeah its not faster bro
>>
>>14612695

The 2.0t from the Genesis coupe came from kia out the 2010 optima.
>>
>>14612695
The gearbox and engine in the Genesis Coupe are in no way comparable to those in the Veloster.
I'm not saying the Veloster has an amazing engine and gearbox, but you can't just say it's bad because another completely different car in the lineup is bad. That's like saying the 370Z doesn't have a good gearbox because you've driven a Micra and that was terrible.
>>
>>14612720

Possible, but all (including the Rally edition) quoted for 201 horsepowers.
>>
>>14612730
But its the other way around, the more expensive car had a horrible gearbox, but youre telling me the cheaper one is better? Funny.
>>
every person i know who owns a veloster turbo (which is 2)
immediately regrets it
>>
>>14612745
I'm telling you that you can't say one thing's shit because something completely different is shit.
>>
>>14612766
>same engineering
>probably the same assembly plant
>not the same
>>
Get a Focus ST, Mazdaspeed 3, or GTI

Experience freedom from regret.
>>
>>14612751
I'm coming from a 2005 Grand Prix GTP. Under appreciated FWD cars are my specialty

get a saab then

>matte blue paint
Hope you like detailing, as washing it normally damages the paint.

Stick with the Fiesta.
>>
Drive both a Veloster and a FiST. The Veloster is a dog dump by comparison.
>>
Why are Hyundai shills pushing the Veloster so hard on here?
>>
>>14613153
because
>we can make affordable, fun, quirky cars too, guys!
>>
>>14613177
But the Veloster is none of those things, anon.
>>
Rear torsion beam suspension is shit. Guaranteed to handle like dogshit.
>>
>>14613182
Shh, don't let them know...
>>
>>14613195
>imblyign
>>
>>14613182
B-but it has 3 doors! And it looks almost exactly like a Scion TC but it's a hatchback! That's not quirky enough for you senpai?

gook shills please
at least try
>>
is it normal that in Canada the genesis coupe is barely more expensive.
>>
>>14614069
Yea, they both suck.
>>
>>14614069
Buy a Mustang instead.
Literally any modern Mustang.

Or a 370Z.
Or a G37, if you need those back seats.

Basically buy anything but the second-rate Korean knockoff.
>>
>>14613220

>looks like a scion tc

Please lay down the pipe
>>
>>14613182
Veloster is literally all those things.

This board always acts completely irrational when discussing certain cars. Surprised no one has rec'd a Miata yet.
>>
>>14612588
My friend has a 2015. Its nice. LOTS of aftermarket support. And it cheap. K frame braces, strut bars, good coil over kits, stiffer trans mounts, carbon fiber intake. He got all that, and a few things for under $1k.

I've driven it, its a nice car. I dont like its styling tho, interior is meh.

It does have the most HP, and torque per liter engine in the world right now. Its always in boost, so it doesnt even feel like it has a turbo. feels weird.


Go test drive one, they can be had under $19k

I would not get the matte one.
>>
>>14612857
saabs are fucking over appreciated
>>
>>14616609
No, no it isn't.
>>
>better than a Fiesta ST

lmao those things are god tier
