Thread 28682493

Anybody have an Elantra N? Do they hold up alright over time? I'm saving up for one with the DCT next summer. It's no Golf R but it still seems pretty cool.

>hold up over time
>korean brand
anon, it’s simply knock-off japshit.

I don't get why KoreaCars can't migrate the Elantra N engine to the newest K4 exterior and interior

Don't own one but from what I gathered, it's reliable enough if you take care of it.
People will say Theta II engines will blow up on you, but that was from a manufacturing fuck up that was fixed years before the Elantra N was even the engineers' wet dream.

>>28682493 (OP)
I would recommend getting one. It's well known that guys who are actually rich and get pussy drive these.

>>28682493 (OP)
Get the manual trans if you get one

>it's reliable enough if you take care of it.
>If you find it falls apart at about the 100k mile mark, it's your fault because of your maintenance
>Only a very small percentage of korean car owners have the capability to maintain a car
Odd how every other manufacturer finds customers that can get cars to hit 200k with regularity.

>>28682493 (OP)
It's very powerful and has amazing tech in it if I had the money for it it'd be a no brainer. When I go to drag races they'll beat so much cars it's insane

>>28682905
Are you aware that the Elantra N has only been around for 4 years?

>>28683040
its still based on a slightly older version of their compact car platform (esp the interior) relative to the newest k4
its weird they don't migrate the engine to the newer interior and still use an old ass interior they don't really use otherwise
i dunno maybe the elantra is still ALL on that old thing and its just the k4 that got modernized
koreans are weird with their fake brands that are just duplicates

>>28682493 (OP)
>Do they hold up alright over time?
The absolute oldest ones were built 4 years ago. No one can answer this question.

>>28682493 (OP)
Yo piss picture faggot, time to shine

No

>>28682493 (OP)
>saving up for one
You don't deserve it

>>28683262
you're just making it look gay anyway by trying too hard

>>28683199
>>28683262
Thanks chief

>>28682516
same reason BMW won't put the S58 in a non-M car.
you want the mighty N experience, you buy the real deal.

>>28683520
>you want the mighty N experience, you buy the real deal.
I'm not up to date with the current marketing jargon. Is the mighty n experience the kia boys or the constant recalls because korean cars self ignite?

>>28684075
>the mighty n experience
it's 0-60 in 4.8 seconds, it's as fast around a track as a nissan z nismo or rc f track edition, it's all physical buttons and knobs, it's the best stock exhaust from a 4 banger, it's 10 yr/100k mile warranty, all for $35k

>>28684203
Rather have an E92 N54 335i lol

>>28683520
I feel like every review I've read for a BMW M product reads like an advertisement for just getting the 6 cylinder non-m product (ditto with Mercedes and AMG)
like the M440i or whatever you get most of the performance and a lot less cost/stiff ride

>>28684217
don't know why people even bother with these types of cope. you poors demand a manual and don't even put your money where your mouth is at.

>>28682493 (OP)
Save some money and get a GLI

>>28684220
>less stiff ride
so do you want to have a sports car or not?

>>28684217
yeah id also rather have a decades old endless money pit
lol

>>28684233
>luke warm performance car
or
>track ready performance car

Indian thread? How are we doing today sars

>>28684239
Man, I just drive the speed limit with a child seat in the back. It's nice to be able to merge on short on ramps to the freeway while spending less than $35K for something with heated wheel, ventilated/heated seats, and adaptive suspension.

>>28684229
Delusional

>>28684238
Delusional. The E92 and N54 are faster and more reliable than and gayhyundai
lol

>>28684238
>decades old endless money pit
>infinite car payment and rolling debt
choose one

>>28684256
>gayhyundai
gaydai is better

>>28684268
>car payment
just say you're broke nigga

>>28684256
>more reliable
KEK
at least try to be a little more believable when trolling

>>28684303
We're talking about fucking gayundai here. Some zoomer in my town has an N54 at 230k miles

>>28682493 (OP)
A buddy of mine does a lot of autocross with his.
It's actually pretty damn fast for what it is.

I don't know about the reliability long-term though.

>>28684268
>infinite car payment
>car is $35,000

>>28684313
The Elantra N doesn't leak fluid all over the fucking place at least once a year. People have been boosting the shit out of them with stock internals and so far, they're holding up. Yes it's a Hyundai, which as a brand has no cachet but their N cars are the real hard r.

>>28683262
Ain't never got a girl's number and definitely never had one in my car. Only had sex 1 time cuz I got drugged by a recent divorce pharmacist. How do you do it?

>>28682493 (OP)
A tuned A4 or A5 is better than that shit

>>28684721
The 335i doesn't leak fluid EVERY year come now nerd
I don't even consider fag-wheel drive cars anymore. I'm giving one goyota away to my aunt until she retires then hopefully I can still get $15k for it for N54 parts nerd and a couple years of property tax nerd

>>28684764
Also, the exterior design or design language or what have you is simply nonsense

>>28684764
Your property taxes aren't shit when it's mommy and daddy's spic shack that benefits from prop 13.

>>28684721
> People have been boosting the shit out of them with stock internals
But why? It can't put it down, neither can the CTR despite it's magic diff.

Once you are front-wheel grip-maxxed, you finally realize the whole RWD meme thing isn't a meme. Can't really put fat tires up front unless the only point is drag ("like your mom", etc).

>>28684768
>liking a car designed by someone named Joji

>>28684774
Hell if I know, I have no plans on upping the power. I'll buy smaller, lighter wheels and stickier rubber soon. I've already felt the front wheels struggle for traction in ideal conditions when I use N word shift

>>28684757
>How do you do it
be confident and don't give a fuck
and be funny

>>28684772
>fag-wheel drive thoughts

>>28684779
That's gonna look hilarious; do it

>>28684784
Simmer down boy, you park your daily on the street.

>>28684787
It would just be 18" wheels to get some fatter rubber. Car comes with feckin' rubber bands from the factory.

>>28684788
So?
And she's not my special daily; she's my fuckin' daily RACE CAR

>>28684792
My other weekend car is also out in the street
Who cares

>>28684790
Just get some KWs or Ohlins and some MICHELINs already
Better yet just get an E92 N54 335i instead then sell the N-bomb

>>28684792
Just poorfag things
>>28684804
Mexcrement shilling me his suspension downgrades again. Car already comes with Michelin P4S.
