I have real mixed feelings about this car.. It is a bit of a love hate thing.. I kind of think it is ugly but likeable some how :o

Gets a pretty good review. Will certainly stand out on the road.  :eek: :eek:

On a positive note .. it is good to see Hyundai using a clean slate with their more recent models .. I think most would agree they cannibalised several other car brands with the i30 and even the Getz (I can give plenty of examples if anyone wants to argue... :whistler:

In a hurry got to go out soon but Front of Getz used a copy of Peugot grill for starters and where do I start with the i30 .. hints of BMW 1 series, Mazda 3, Honda Civic Grill and several others.. I did post some comparison pix a couple of years ago..  :D

I'm sure Hyundai aren't on their "Pat Malone" when it comes to pinching a few styling cues..... :P

i must admit the back of mine looks exactly like the BMW. but who cares, its a good looking machine,
many people have commented on how good it looks!
and a lot of car for the money. :D

Yes, but Korean manufacturers used to be really good at it.. Like the Japanese maybe 20 years ago...
