According to the born-agains, this IS the end days. Damn, I should've bought advanced tickets for the Ark.

On the other hand, it's ugly as sin. I can ignore that, though, for a car like this.
This is for people who want a G8 with fewer doors.

I went to my local auto show this past weekend and they had a Camaro LS on display. I sat in it and the interior was absolutely wretched. It's every bit as cheap as a Cobalt. Rock hard plastics with sandpaper texturing. Yuck.
I'm sorry, there's no way this Hyundai is worse than that. You can tell that much just by comparing the pictures.

I'm sure this car offers a great performance-to-dollar ratio, but are you trying to tell me that Hyundai has designed and engineered a true sports car with all the nuance and communicativeness of, say, an old 993?

993 always wins, no matter what you compare it to.

Ridiculous in an idiotic "I finish every sentence with 'yo', yo" kind of way.

People keep talking about the muscle car wars heating up, but really it's about the Muscle Vs (ummm...rice?) wars.

Rice is twenty year old civics/accords/corollas/etc. fitted with massive wings, fart cans, neon underglow, and otherwise left stock.
I will grant the Z, Genesis, and RX-8 more respect than that.

as much as i loath the damnelantra™, my first moves to replace the suspension tires and brakes most certainly got rid of the mind-numbing part.
...now if only i could work out the boring

A used 2.0T R-spec should be a bargain in 3-5 years, leaving enough money in hand to upgrade to an angrier snail.

This whole on-again-off-again thing is starting to resemble my sex life. Sometimes it's on, sometimes it's off, depending on how much overtime I have to put in.
Is a little consistency too much to ask for?

The interior is fine except for the instrument panel, which is awful. It looks like they tried to knock off the Camaro, realized it was too obvious, and then tried to change it just a little to claim that it was different. And failed.
I don't mind making a few compromises in terms of exterior looks, as I am not looking at the exterior when I am driving. I am, however, looking at those instruments, and they are horrible.
