Real talk: If this exact car were released by Honda, Toyota, Mazda or Nissan you fags, and the auto enthusiast culture at large, would be wetting yourselves over it.

Of course that's not the case, so I enjoy my Korean GTI at a discount. By the way, blew the doors off a GT86, FiST, C5 Vette, S2000, GTI and Challenger RT all last night.

Not bad for $10k, lots of tech toys, 10 yr/100k warranty and a cheap tune and bolt ons I can easily reset if it needs warranty work.

6/10 bait quality.

You should have used a picture of someone's personal Veloster and not one you found off Google

This isn't b8. I have a '14 Turbo. All this is true. I just like that picture.

>If this exact car were released by Honda, Toyota, Mazda or Nissan
It would've had decent ride quality while maintaining sporty handling, a shifter that doesn't feel like you're rowing a stick through a bag of rocks and a steering wheel that actually provided some feedback.

This. It would legitimately be a cool car as a TT AWD. Instead they made it look like a generic cuckbox and perform like one too.
>>
Why does this car get so much hate? Legit curious cause I am looking into a golf or turbo 4 cylinder right now.
24 city 31 highway
200 hp, 195 torq.
0-60 of 7-7.2 second?
The 2013 model has a turbo with a regular 6 speed auto or manual.

And it's cheaper

14k financed at most dealerships for top end 2013 model versus 15k at most for golf tsi low end models and golf tsi is slower?
>>
>>17744273
Real talk, -t I have one (13 turbo).
It's not a sports car, but it's fun enough to throw around curves. There is a decent amount of haul space with the back seats down. Gas mileage is decent. Interior has some flimsy plastics, but nothing that drives me crazy. Seat is reasonably comfortable. Radio has some odd quirks (won't remember shuffle if turned off, occasionally forgets how to read my thumb drive).

It's not a terrible car, but be aware of what you are buying; a sporty econobox.
>>

It's not a GTI, it's .4 seconds faster than my shitty base model golf 0-60

>Being this delusional
>>
>>17744632
Mine isn't even a 1.8t btw it's got the much shitted on 5cylinder. Although I don't hate these that much, a GTI is faster. I honestly think these are good cars they're just not fast. And personally they look to boiracer for me. Golf/GTI look more sleek
>>
>>17744273
Because a comparable GTI has 210 horse power with 260 ft-lb of torque and does 0-60 in ~6 seconds if it's a newer DSG model.
>>
>>17744438
>Fun to drive
Every other piece of evidence contradicts that. Everyone agrees that is cheap and turbo but no one says it is great to drive or fun

This is why we hate it

My girlfriend wants a Veloster (not trying to make fun, I drive a much shittier econobox) have either of you got the non-turbo base model? Also how is rear visibility? She'd be upgrading from an 08 corolla/auris hatch
>>
>>17747657
Base Veloster is lame af to drive but probably more than fine for the basic roastie. That is to say good looks and plenty of tech toys.

The visibility problem is overblown. Visibility in the Veloster is no worse than average in this day and age where almost anything new has fuckhuge pillars. Felt like I was in a greenhouse after two days of acclimatization.
>>
>>17744273
Because Korea has yet to make a legitimate driver's car.

A used mazdaspeed3 is better in every way.
>>
>>17747598
Dude, you bought a shitty car, learn from your mistake and move on.
>>
>>17748301
What does "plenty of tech toys" mean?
You mean it has traction control, smart key and navigation just like every other car has?

Name ONE item that actually is a "tech toy" that isn't available on some other $15K pos shopping cart.
>>
>>17748332
Terrific sound system, unique huge panoramic sunroof, the nav/media screen in the veloster is way nicer than in comparably priced peers,
>>
>>17748301
Own a NA, the visibility is bad looking straight back but with a little practice between back up camera and looking out your side windows it's not that awful.

The NAs fine, it's not fast but you can easily get up to 100mph, the only real complaint I have is some numb steering at low speeds and the fucking thing won't creep in traffic for shit.
>>
>>17744273
my jetta is just as fast, probably handles better and it doesn't look like a shoe

Dude shut the fuck up. Seriously, stop giving us a worse name than we already have. The car is fine, and for the price of a new car it's pretty damned good but it's in no way a "Korean GTI". It's got problems, a bunch but it does not have the power-weight to compare to a GTI.

It's a fun car for the price, and I can't think of a newer car that would cost the same thats better (You can get 2016 VTs for less than 15k now).

Mine's faster than an 86 or a Miata (ive clocked at a 6.4 sec 0-60) but its not faster than a FiST, a GTI, or an s2000. That ridiculous. Stop spreading lies about a car that is at best above average to own. Hyundai is pretty damned reliable now and theyre starting to get the hang of it.

Once the Veloster N comes out, maybe we'll see about calling it a "Korean GTI" because of that AWD and 250+ hp but until then it's just a average economy car thats a bit more fun.

I don't know why you would buy a Veloster after the new Elantras come out.

My buddy has an obnoxious orange Veloster and I can't stand the interior or the small back seat or the fact it has only one rear door but it is a fun car.

In like a month the 2018 Elantra GT Sports with the same 1.6 Turbo out of the Veloster are going to start showing up at dealerships.

I don't know why the FUCK people would still buy a Veloster with the Elantra GT Sports out. The interiors are bigger, the infotainment is a STANDARD 8-inch even on the non-sport GTs, leather everything, it's going to make just too much sense to spend the extra 3000 bucks and move up to the Elantra from the Veloster. The prices are too close.

If I hadn't just bought a used 2016 Sonata Sport, I would probably be buying a Elantra GT Sport in a few months. Now what I really wish they would do is make a Sonata Hatchback, but they assume if you want something like that you would just get a crossover.
>>
>>17751021
Mine's not stock, bro. So yes it is faster than those things
>>
>>17751118
No one here is buying new Velosters, dude. You can get a nice deal on a used 2013-2015 VT that's still under warranty for about half the price of an Elantra GT Sport
>>
>>17751127
Hey congrats, you polished a turd
>>
>>17748728
Look man, I hate Hyundai's as much as the next weeb, but they're reliable as fuck, so sit down
>>
>>17751127
Modded cars don't count. Mod any of those other cars the same and they are faster because they have a higher too end.

My friends working on a tiburon that will end up having 500whp and 510ft-lbs. Doesn't count as being being by a tiburon when the only thing that is a tibruon anymore is the chassis.
