Its fast and the stereo is good, its not nice to drive though, the biggest killer is the shitty throttle response and how it picks and chooses how it wants to react to your throttle inputs, its pretty similar to how the VF Commodore throttle works, which is shit - ignores your throttle inputs or wants to think about things before it responds.
Behaves strangely, like sometimes it'll automatically pick up the r evs itself when you clutch in, other times it won't, other times it ignores your throttle inputs, other times it behaves normally, the way the throttle is mapped is retarded.
You've got to be really aware and do your throttle inputs before you'd normally do them at things like roundabouts to give the car time to process when I'm pressing the accelerator MEANS I WANT THE ****ING ACCELERATOR SO MORE REVOLUTIONS PLEASE.
Or when you get off/on/off the throttle with subtle inputs confuses it big time.
When ti first starts up it feels like it calibrates the bimodal exhaust to detect its open and closed positions so it'll open/close/open/close/open/close the exhaust as well which is about as annoying as you can imagine because the car goes BRRRRRrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Cruise control implementation is crap too compared to Ford, doesn't maintain speed really well.
Its just a combination of little things like this which make Hyundai's N vehicles a bit of a joke, 95% of the job has been done, the last 5% is the deal breaker.
I don't think its too hard to make the throttle response instant, it is in Ford's ST range, their cars respond instantly to the tiniest throttle inputs on the pedal.
