i30N Fastback

[Sioso]

Spotted this in a neighbours yard.
As far as I am aware these have not been released or tested on Aussie soil yet.

He work for Hyundai or a visitor ?

[Sioso]

A visitor I'm guessing as I've never seen a Hyundai in their yard before.

Do Korean diplomats get to take their personal cars with them?

Hatch is nicer.... fastback looks kinda bloated and frumpy.

[stig_3754]

Maybe a press car. I've seen photos of one in a showroom at Hyundai Australia's head office in Sydney (Macquarie Park I believe).

I agree. Tail looks too stumpy.

[Vesper Martini]

Sioso, if its a problem or annoying you, grab it at night time, stick in a container and I'll take it away from your viewing.

Isn't it sad that after watching a vid on the I30N I happened to stupidly watch a follow up vid on this great little car by Cadogen of all people .

BIG MISTAKE... He waxed lyrical , almost creaming his undies about the car and that has soured me for life on the I 30N .

I hate that sanctimonious git with a passion and he's contaminated my view of the amazingly capable I 30 N now...

I need to see someone to get over Cadogenitis ..

If I could ever afford it I'll be honour bound to buy a Focus ST or something now. ,

I avoid Cadogan like the plague. When I was watching all the YT reviews on the i30 N I avoided his video like the plague and I still haven't watched it, even though I now own one.

A good shrink should get you past it

Everything is a death trap or rubbish according to John (except Hyundai’s) it seems.

No prizes for guessing what brand of car he owns

Aren't all cars lemons these days? Engineered by accountants to maximise share holder dividends?

You can do a lot worse than drive a supposed simple old falcon.

[fiestaz]

Words cannot describe Cadogan.

That fastback in the other hand, yum

[Vormund]

Hmm quite like that. Might have to check them out when they land here.

Theres certainly some cool cars coming out of Hyundai/Kia at the moment for every budget.

The new Kia Picanto GT with 1l turbo, 74kw/172nm for under $19k driveaway.

The Kia Rio GT Line with the same 1l turbo and an improved 88kw for $22k driveaway, that tune would be good in the Picanto.

The Kia Cerato GT with 1.6l turbo, 150kw/265nm for $32k driveaway.

The Hyundai i30N in both hatch and fastback guise with 202kw/378nm(on overboost) for mid $40k.
A new Veloster is just around the corner too.

And of coarse the Kia Stinger GT 3.3l V6T, 272kw/510nm for mid $60k driveaway.

Certainly making the more 'established' brands work a little harder if nothing else which has got to be good for the consumer.
