Positive impressions. 33MPG combined!!! But the new 8AT is lazy. Initial versions won't be any fun to drive. Supposedly a 2.5T coming in an N-Line, not a full on N which makes a lot more sense. Def curious to see what's up with the next Elantra; that is due soon.

I still don't know how I feel about the front styling, but aside from hating the steering wheel that interior looks very nice. The lackluster engines are unfortunate but I assume some more potent option is coming soon.

You're my age.  We're getting old.  Plus, now that you're married, your life expectancy has gone way down, since you're more likely to be poisoned by your wife.

Not a bad looking car.  It's quibbling, but there're just to many asymmetrical shapes, especially in the interior; most particularly the logo.

There are 2 front ends it seems. One is nice:



the other is hideous:



I'm guessing the second one is the sport face. Hyundai's way of saying "do not buy the sport version you dummy"

I thought the current engine options were their way of saying "do not  buy the sport version" but Agree 100% that the styling goes from possibly handsome to botched nose-job pretty quick.

I think the first one is shot from a better angle, too. The sport photo shows you the grill from the front more, where you can see how much it resembles a whale shark. They probably all suffer from that, you just can't tell from the top photo.

I think the front plate also helps since it covers up part of the grill, making it look smaller.
