Aww who gives a shit about the deposit in 2022. That’s a gazillion years ago. Plus if the original sales guy was any good, he would have contacted you years ago. It’s not like the car was unavailable till last week, they had plenty of opportunities to get you a car.
You owe the original schmuck nothing.
I gotta teach all you guys how to be more of a douchebag. That or yall need to go buy Porsches and just soak in the douche from the cabin.

Thanks for the shout out Gumby.
Well, to be frank, at most I would have "stolen" half the deal, so it would be a split deal between me and the other PA. haha
The key is..... did the other PA reach out to you regardless of my post if he knew you were waiting for the rear wiper~
I put the "stolen" in quotes because, the rule of the dealer is, if you dont "stay in contact" ie, have notes with the client within the last 6 weeks, then its free for all~
But in these cases, most of the time, we will still honor the 50/50 split deal because its unrealistic to keep in touch with like 50 pre-orders when there wasnt cars for 2 years.

Although I didn't buy from him (he wasn't there when I placed the deposit in March 2022), shout out to dark0821 for posting here that the 2025 models had arrived. I just managed to take advantage of the factory rebate after the federal one ran out. I chatted with him briefly when I picked up the car and he was already suggesting new rims for me. It's a pleasure to witness his passion for all things automotive!  | If the original sales didn't reach out to you for the cars on the lot and the rear wiper, he's lost your sale and you should have went with dark. Dark has been posting about cars being available for the last 8 months, he's the one that put in the work and you made your decision based on his effort.

These new ones have the NACs port right?

Ioniq 9 released in North America will be the only Hyundai EV that has the NACs port from the inception~
But all existing owners will get a free adapter eventually hahaha.
For Hyundai specifically too, the NACs technically is a downgrade in charge speed. But of course the benefit of such a wide charging network is well worth it. Quote:

Some other big points to me haha
- smaller bezel (now in black) with bigger screens
- wireless Android Auto + wireless Apple CarPlay
- Better direct access HVAC controls
- Physical buttons for heated/ventilated seats + heated steering wheel
- Faster power liftgate lol
Some smaller updates (wouldnt call them upgrades)
- different wheels, though I liked the old gen
- different night time DRL and LEDs (very minor)
- different bumpers

The first batch of 2025 models intended for Canada are made in S. Korea so they still have the CCS port. The ones made in the US factory in Georgia have the NACS port. I don't know what Hyundai Canada will do if the US-made cars get hit with tariffs. Quote:

It has buttons along with touchscreens which is great for seniors. Aside from some 12V ICCU issues (fixed so far with software updates) and a weird glitch when the car thought it was tilted. The facelift one you got fixes a lot of the annoyances (rear wipers). The BIG one fixed was that the original ioniq 5 had 2 coolant systems one had to replace every 3 years which was $$$$. Facelift one got rid of it.

BMW brake pads, nothing you can do about it except swapping them to akebono ceramics. Then it'll be a lot cleaner at the expense of bite

On the aftermarket, the "upgrade" StopTech sport pads are only FF rated; Akebono Euro Premium Ceramic are somehow GG but I don't buy it.

I'm on EBC Blues. They have a fantastic temperature range but Mission will destroy 60% of a set of new pads in one day. They are also "squishy" when hot, I drove another car with Pagids and the pedal feel was a lot more positive. The EBC still dust, but not nearly as bad as OEM, and the dust isn't as sticky and mostly washes off with a pressure washer on a coated wheel.
That being said, the Pagids squeals like a fucking train, and I can use my EBC in the snow without problems, it'll stop on the first application.

yeah tbh pad changes are easy enough with fixed caliper that lifespan shouldn't be that much of a concern
with dust, easier to just ceramic coat the wheel and blast enough dust off
