Please share your thoughts on this vehicle. So far I’ve been seeing lots of great comments on the vehicle and want to here from experts on their take on the car and the whole “N” performance Hyundai now has. Is the car better now ?
As others have said if you must have one lease it rather than buying it. At least that limits your exposure if it starts falling apart.
WHEN it starts falling apart.
If you must have one, lease it.
Hyundai DCTs aren't great, and their T-GDi engines aren't either.
The powertrain is powerful, but as far as reliability it's not something I'd recommend.
I agree with @itwt , if you want it that much - leasing is the way to go.
It's Hyundai so I wouldn't really care about it or trust the quality unless you don't want to keep it for more than 100k miles. If you want an automatic sedan in that size range then Civic or Corolla. If you want manual then Corolla manual or one of the manual Civics.
The post below is asking about another Hyundai N line car with DCT:
