Wow! Thanks for sharing!

Seems like a missed opportunity though, making the redline an uninspiring 7800rpm.

It's made up anyway, why not get into the 8000s?!

Dark WhatsApp me these pictures and at first I kinda threw up a bit in my mouth. Then I was like evo and thought it looked gundam ish. Now after looking at it again it’s just MEH

p.s. if its all electric why does it still have a rev counter? this thing has a gasoline engine to do what?

Nobody thinks of the X anymore because it's too expensive and old. I can't even think of the last time I saw one and I live in Tesla HQ Richmond so that's saying something.
I wish the Y looked more unique.. it does feel like it has way more space than the 3, but I can see why people think it's basically the same.
FWIW, I can't think of a car i would upgrade our X to, aside from a newer X.. its a great kid hauler

To be honest I love it, and not because I work for Hyundai. I was already a big fan of the regular 5 to begin with, this injection of RICE just speaks to me lmao (ricer at heart..fml)

The wider stance, with the stretched fenders hahaha. I think the matte blue just shouts look at me.

If you go with a regular color, maybe gloss black, I dont think alot of people will notice over a regular 5 unless you know what it is

"ICE Simulator"?

There's a gimmick with staying power!

i saw it in person today. Dark showed me, its pretty friggin neat. Even the bullshit ICE simulator is kinda interesting. It has more room inside than the LX 4 seater option. THATS NUTS. I can actually sit behind myself, unlike the stupid LX.

Love the color, and all the body cladding aero bits are functional.





It looks rice as fuck, but i still kinda like it. Depending on the price, i might even get one to replace my Zzzzz camry... that or the FL5 CTR

I mean it makes sense. Much of fuel tax goes to road maintenance. EV's still use roads. There's enough of them out there now it makes sense that they should have to pay their fair share.

Fords can now use Tesla superchargers but they will have to use at least two parking stalls due to short charging cables designed for Tesla use.

Good call on the autoshow, this one is probably headed to the Vancouver Auto Show at the end of March.

My dad's GC was their autoshow unit, he bought their only 2013 in early 2012

thank you. I don't expect there to be anything mind blowing, but i'm part of the N community and there's a few little things I want to see and feel after watching almost every piece of content about this car over the last year or so.
