I bought my Lexus in 2008. Probably gonna keep it a while, but if I was buying now a days, I would strongly consider the Hyundais.....11+ years ago, Hyundai cars were a joke. Now a days, they've made a complete 180.
Great company now doing pretty great things for a low price point.
WOW are we promoting these 2 guys or the car cos why am i getting to see their faces but not much of the car.And can't they talk in back ground while car is being showned.
This car arrive to Puerto Rico like 3 or 4 days ago. Yesterday I went to the Hyundai dealer and I testdrive this car in six speed manual. The interior is great such as the exterior and is fun to drive! And I a little worried for the blind spots. Because here we don't get the backup camara and the sensors either! but have a nice cargo area and is spacious inside. This car is in my list. Excuse my English but I'm from Puerto Rico and we just speak spanish in here!
@AmazingSuperStar1 Go testdrive one. You will find it rather fast and fun. This car is not about road scorching but fun and practicality with unprecedented number of amenities. I also think it is great to have the longer driver's side door for easier access and 2 door for your friends. I want one.
Another car that you can't turn off the lights. What a shame. The AMC Pacer was asymetrical too---with a longer door on the passengers side. At least you could turn off the lights.

I love how they grabbed the CRX part, and they actually did much better than Honda did with the CRZ....lol Shows that Hyundai is taking Hondas sales left and right!
@lightssmith They've definitely have caught up and surpassed Honda as far as I'm concerned. Only problem is the stigma attached to Hyundai from the early days of the Stellar, and Pony. I was a proud owner of a Hyundai accent SR it had all the bells and whistles and I had a ton of Honda drivers check out my car and were impressed with the design, handling and right on down to the sattelite clarion 17 inch sub system.
@1163121totheend They're making mince meat of that thanks to reviews like these. The Equus, their $64K luxury sedan, is actually selling well, surpassing rolls royce and the jag XJ in sales even.
@Acc0rd79 agreed! I wanted to like the CRZ so much since it looked great and had a cool interior, but the power train scared me away. but the veloster does a much better job with the overall package. props to hyundai, they just keep on surprising.
man... hyundais done it again. this car is sooo unique yet practical and affordable i think it's going to be a major hit here in U.S. I was never a fan of Hyundai cars but the improvement they are making is hard to ignore and now they come up with a fuel efficient sports car.... what the fudge. hyundai has changed from copying others to coming up with totally unique and original. i am in a market for a new car and this one is on the top of the list.
@vsn119 correction, its not a sports car. it only looks kinda like a sports car. Unless you go for the turbo version, the 1.6L version is still not fast enough to be placed in the sports car category.
not entirely 'original'. Many of them are image refresh and direct response to competition counterparts.
that and marketing and pricing were geared towards their target demographics. Much like Apple's tactic by marketing their simplicity. That combined with the crippled Japanese automakers and struggling American automakers at the time; the timing could never be any better. In other words, a well executed offensive to take the public's hearts. Nothing unique or original about that.
@tuanrav4 Stop spamming "Review, review, review" because this isn't a review, stupid. What review have you ever seen with the company CEO in the car? They're just driving, talking about the car, not reviewing it. And learn how to fucking spell.
actually the honda odessey will put this thing to same but we are not talking about speed here . you guy suck don't quick yours daytime job yours review suck
The 3-door idea is fantastic. From driver's side , the car is a coupe. But from the passenger's side , there are 2 doors. Back door has a secret clunch just like the Guilietta or Honda Type-R. Fantastic idea. The vision of a coupe for driver , the functionality to easily step inside the back.
The @1:49 the headlights are different.. All off the Veloster version I've seen have reflector housing.. Not projector. Hopefully the projectors are standard.
Just let me know when its going to be available in the US. They say Sept. 2011. I went to the dealership last week and they said they didn't know when they were getting them. The guy actually ask me how do I know about it? What! SMH
Look up 2002 Mazda Kasubi concept. Its no lie that Kia and Ford have worked together in the past. More obvious is the fluidic style shared between Ford, Mazda, Kia and Hyundai.
Nice car. I wish they went with a fully 4 wheel independent suspension instead of the of the beam suspension. But Beam suspension I guess is cheaper to make then a fully Independent suspension talk about cutting costs. Still a nice looking car I want the turbo version to come then I will decided between its competitors. Looking for to a full review.
@IwantaLexusLFA the DS3 Racing are sold out....it's a limited edition, I think the problem with Hyundai is it's badge, saying you drive a Hyundai is like saying my life hasn't worked out as well as I hoped, couldn't afford some "better" brands, you know what I am saying?
@HiFiReviewer If you have a small dick of course sounds better to say "I have a BMW/Mercedes" but mine is big enough and I can drive a Hyundai without problems.
Are you kidding me? That's just an excuse people with inexpensive vehicles use to falsely justify their vehicle against something far superior. People buy a BMW/Mercedes because they are better cars, and their owners can afford them.
@HiFiReviewer it happened because most of the people don't know much about the cars
they hear from other people that Germans are better, but do they really are?If' you'll make a data collection about what kind of cars mechanics have, pretty sure than majority would have cars from Asia.New Hyundai car less efficient in the class and some of the models even better looking and costs less,if you would make a research about Honda and Toyota when they came to US, people were even more skeptical
k so if the car ends up in a lake by any chance , the people in the back driver side are pretty much fucked because they have to wait for the other fuckers to get out first. very smart;),
I find vehicles like these very split personality. It's very economical, which is excellent in today's market with rising gas prices, but it also tries to be sporty. For Hyundai, I can't see it. Their previous attempts, say a Sonata 2.0T only came with an automatic transmission, robbing the potential from what could have been an excellent car. I can also see them missing their mark on this car as well. Also.. the doors. Why not be innovative in another area that will leave a lasting impression?
I don't understand why they put a 3dr on this come its been done hello GM Saturn had the 3dr and they had so many water leaks with them. I like the concept of this car making it unique and making it, its own and not like every other car even though still has the same front end of its brothers. Slap a turbo in this thing an you got yourself a seller..
Just bought this car. It is simply FANTASTIC! I love the interior and exterior design. It's full of fun toys. And has excellent fuel economy. It cost me ONLY 21,000$ ....(I know!!!)
This car is pretty nice. I live in Brazil and i might buy one. The thing is in Brazil cars are way too expensive. No reason but greed. This car here, in US dolars is set around $50k
and the minimun wage is set aroung U$ 369,33 . So, this car is equal to 135 minimun wage in Brazil. Terrible.

Damn, this is more of a modern CRX than the CRZ is. Plus it's more powerful, gets better milage, and will probably be cheaper as well. Looks are subjective though, so I'm not going to comment on that.
thearmedlife I wouldn't call the 1.6l gamma engine ancient by any means. How many comparable engine use direct injection right now. A good example of and ancient motor would be the L67 (3.8l v6) from my 04 monte carlo, single cam and push rods with an iron block and heads. plus the original design dates back to the 60's. the turbo veloster may very well be my next and first new car.
pricing at the OHIO training class is 16,300.00 base and goes up and... NO... it wont go up to 24,000.00.it will be here in AUGUST ..If they do a bigger Eng. they say capping it at 22,.....See u later suckers
front end and dash look just like the the elantra. however putting the accent motor in it was a horrable ideal thats a ''sports coupe'' come on we're gonna need to see a lil more than 138hp.
@johnherrera305 no actually the 1.6 liter 138hp model should be going around $18,000-20,000 just like how affordable their other cars are, even the later turbo model with over 200hp will only cost $24,000, i'm already planning on getting one I prefer the non turbo because its like a newer version on my beloved car
@johnherrera305 even though the NA version is nice as a 1.6 for a daily commuter fun car I wish hyndai made a 2.0 liter option, this was supposed to kill honda, in ways of style and fuel economy yes, but honda had the famous k20a engine with 220hp out of a 2.0 if hyundai could get 200hp from a NA 2.0 liter I would be the happiest guy on earth lol
I like everything about it, the engine size, hp, style, pricetag, etc, im a proud second gen crx owner and weve been waiting for a replacement, honda made a crz and failed horribly, this is perfect
looks like it might have a wicked blind spot. I dont think it is ugly by any means and I do like it otherwise. the third door in the design is really neat if your used to two door designs and dont want to climb over a seat to get in the back but dont want to go for a full on sedan. nice job hyundai. I would buy it.
This car was not meant to be conventional.... It is OK to see people not know what to think about it, because it is not something common..... I believe this is car for people that think out of the box and can see beyond what has been established from before.... To be Honest, I would buy this car with no doubts, and use it as my daily driving car. I do like it.
@cabrioglx Actually, reviews have been trickling in from Europe and indicate the car has plenty of head and leg room, and cabin sound isolation is on the level of cars much more expensive.
The jellybean rounded front end looks less sporty to me than the Accent or Elantra, which makes no sense to me. The rear is bordering on homely, in my eyes. I don't want the navigation. Built in nav is a total waste of money. Considering it is similar in size and power to the Accent, I'd rather save several thousand dollars and buy the Accent hatchback. Less gimmick, less money, better looks, and more practicality.
they say it will start "around" $17k, which probably means $17, 500. add destination, and you get to $18,200 -ish.
BUT, that will be the manual transmission. hyundai, honda, toyota just dont believe in making these, so the veloster that everyone will really be seeing will start at about $20k.
@madant1977 It looks like something an american manufacturer would make and say its "aggressively sporty". USA car companies cant create anything that looks great except the camaro.
oDTheTruth, lol are you talking about the cadillac, i have to tell you a true story, my dad got a cadillac for $20,000 a real beauty on the outside but a disaster waiting to happen, suddenly things slowly stopped working, the transmission, all electrical, windows the bose stereo, etc, the bill was
more than the car, the end, cadillac is tue most unreliable crap there is
armondm, you should learn your cars and engines cause frankly hyundai and kia (korean) have now successfully killed off all japanese competition, the veloster just replaced my honda crx which honda tried to do with the crz and failed horribly, veloster and every other new hyundai is amazing except maybe the new accent, looks like a damn kia rio that costs the same as an elantra
It looks shitty because the car look shitty period.
It's a mish-mash of crap that they tried to make look good but it doesn't work.
It's just another oil-burner....the last thing we need these days.
People should be ALOT more critical nowadays with what's under the hood instead of what's covering the chassis. We need better technology in the powerplant areas...by leaps and bounds...not by this incremental bullshit we're seeing today.
this is nothing like the aztek, how would I know because to me the aztek is the ugliest car of all time, however tue back of this is similar to my crx, want to talk about ugly cars how about the 2012 civic, with its huge ugly ass, ugly price tag, and bad fuel economy, aswell acura is ugly, hyundai is not ugly
its hilarious because honda a little while ago made te crz to replace the crx and they failed badly mainly because of it being hybrid and overpriced I own a honda crx and this is a true replacement, the design is so hyundai, the engine is a perfect 1.6 with 138hp similar to my crx, the color is awesome and it gets the kind of mileage of a hybrid, hyundai is doing incredible, genesis, elantra, accent, tuscon, sonata, vera cruz, santa fe, and now veloster, If i plan on getting another car its a v
Nice and gay automatic. I can easily take that piece of shit in my Sentra lol.
Oh wait, I have already! Shifting at 4k RPM instead of 7k RPM.

I don't understand why they put a 3dr on this come its been done hello GM Saturn had the 3dr and they had so many water leaks with them. I like the concept of this car making it unique and making it, its own and not like every other car even though still has the same front end of its brothers. Slap a turbo in this thing an you got yourself a seller..

This car is pretty nice. I live in Brazil and i might buy one. The thing is in Brazil cars are way too expensive. No reason but greed. This car here, in US dolars is set around $50k
and the minimun wage is set aroung U$ 369,33 . So, this car is equal to 135 minimun wage in Brazil. Terrible.

Damn, this is more of a modern CRX than the CRZ is. Plus it's more powerful, gets better milage, and will probably be cheaper as well. Looks are subjective though, so I'm not going to comment on that.

thearmedlife I wouldn't call the 1.6l gamma engine ancient by any means. How many comparable engine use direct injection right now. A good example of and ancient motor would be the L67 (3.8l v6) from my 04 monte carlo, single cam and push rods with an iron block and heads. plus the original design dates back to the 60's. the turbo veloster may very well be my next and first new car.

johnherrera305 7 months ago
@johnherrera305 no actually the 1.6 liter 138hp model should be going around $18,000-20,000 just like how affordable their other cars are, even the later turbo model with over 200hp will only cost $24,000, i'm already planning on getting one I prefer the non turbo because its like a newer version on my beloved car
Brendon00000 7 months ago
@Brendon00000 Me too...planning on getting one for early October. Hope I like it after my test drive>
johnherrera305 7 months ago
@johnherrera305 even though the NA version is nice as a 1.6 for a daily commuter fun car I wish hyndai made a 2.0 liter option, this was supposed to kill honda, in ways of style and fuel economy yes, but honda had the famous k20a engine with 220hp out of a 2.0 if hyundai could get 200hp from a NA 2.0 liter I would be the happiest guy on earth lol
Brendon00000 7 months ago
I like everything about it, the engine size, hp, style, pricetag, etc, im a proud second gen crx owner and weve been waiting for a replacement, honda made a crz and failed horribly, this is perfect
Brendon00000 8 months ago
looks like it might have a wicked blind spot. I dont think it is ugly by any means and I do like it otherwise. the third door in the design is really neat if your used to two door designs and dont want to climb over a seat to get in the back but dont want to go for a full on sedan. nice job hyundai. I would buy it.

This car was not meant to be conventional.... It is OK to see people not know what to think about it, because it is not something common..... I believe this is car for people that think out of the box and can see beyond what has been established from before.... To be Honest, I would buy this car with no doubts, and use it as my daily driving car. I do like it.

@cabrioglx Actually, reviews have been trickling in from Europe and indicate the car has plenty of head and leg room, and cabin sound isolation is on the level of cars much more expensive.
ericj305 8 months ago
The jellybean rounded front end looks less sporty to me than the Accent or Elantra, which makes no sense to me. The rear is bordering on homely, in my eyes. I don't want the navigation. Built in nav is a total waste of money. Considering it is similar in size and power to the Accent, I'd rather save several thousand dollars and buy the Accent hatchback. Less gimmick, less money, better looks, and more practicality.
palebeachbum 8 months ago
they say it will start "around" $17k, which probably means $17, 500. add destination, and you get to $18,200 -ish.
BUT, that will be the manual transmission. hyundai, honda, toyota just dont believe in making these, so the veloster that everyone will really be seeing will start at about $20k.

more than the car, the end, cadillac is tue most unreliable crap there is

armondm, you should learn your cars and engines cause frankly hyundai and kia (korean) have now successfully killed off all japanese competition, the veloster just replaced my honda crx which honda tried to do with the crz and failed horribly, veloster and every other new hyundai is amazing except maybe the new accent, looks like a damn kia rio that costs the same as an elantra

People should be ALOT more critical nowadays with what's under the hood instead of what's covering the chassis. We need better technology in the powerplant areas...by leaps and bounds...not by this incremental bullshit we're seeing today.

Brendon00000 8 months ago
its hilarious because honda a little while ago made te crz to replace the crx and they failed badly mainly because of it being hybrid and overpriced I own a honda crx and this is a true replacement, the design is so hyundai, the engine is a perfect 1.6 with 138hp similar to my crx, the color is awesome and it gets the kind of mileage of a hybrid, hyundai is doing incredible, genesis, elantra, accent, tuscon, sonata, vera cruz, santa fe, and now veloster, If i plan on getting another car its a v
