Sport with tech package and first Hyundai. Love this car so much!

Congrats dude. Welcome to the forum. You have any modification plans in mind? What prompted the switch to Hyundai?

Thanks! I probably wont do a lot of modifications but I did add a dash cam, ordered a short ram intake for it, ordered a roof rack to haul bikes and and will go in Monday to get a quote for tinting the windows. As to why Hyundai? The semi-short version is, I saw a blue GTS in the showroom floor while going to check out the Ioniq (I was looking for a super efficient commuter/trip car, because I thought that was what I wanted) and it was love at first sight! Asked a few questions about it then went home to do some research/comparisons. In the end, I couldn't find anything that compared performance and feature wise for the money. My parking lot at is full of Hyundai's, including one regular Elantra Sport, and everyone I have talked to loves their cars/SUV's, has had good experiences with them and in many cases are multiple Hyundai owners.

Sounds about right. Hyundai has come a long way.

Well if the Essentia GT concept is any indication of where they are headed as a brand, lets just say they'll be the manufacturer to beat. They certainly do offer a lot of car for the price, and I'm happy that aftermarket mod support has really stepped up.
