PS. josh you suck
The CHMSL (3rd brake light) is mandated by the feds, not the states.

Everyone has to have one on every car built after a certain date in the 80s.

I think it's a little low for my tastes (not a fan of tucking) but your car looks really nice.

I would love to test drive one but most Hyundai dealers around here would probably tow my car somewhere so I'm stuck listening to their sales pitch.

I sat in one of these at the Detroit Autoshow, idk the Sedan was a lot better, but then again sporty coupe is more of my taste, needless to say I like and would love one haha.

I was looking around and it looks like Hyundai has some decent leasing going on for the 2.0Ts ...

My math might be wrong but I thought I saw that a 2.0 Track could go for about $400/mo for 3/36k with T&T and whatever lease acquisition bullshit they wanna try to charge.

That's not that bad for a 2.0 Track IMO. Again, that was just a rough number based upon published lease info.

Nice short shifter. I'm still waiting for a shot of the engine bay. I want to see what the Injen CAI and grounding kit looks like under the hood.
