Hi All, We are FINALLY getting the I30's here after having i10 and i20 for way to long. Luckely I am one of the first 400 people who will have the i30 2.0L.

Have you ordered an i30 ?

Banzai1975 · **Reply #7: March 09, 2010, 20:38:26**

The Dealers had their launch on the 6th of march and I ordered mine about a month ago. Seen a couple in the east on holiday and decided thats the car I want. So all I know is the first batch of 2.0L coming here is the full house version with sun roof, leather seats and all the bells and wistles. Note I saw the i30 in early 2009 in korea.

Shambles, put yours on a smartie box and lets see it get confused :

As long as it handles better then the new Golf 6, looks better then the new POLO then I am happy.

From what my contact at Hyundai told me they wanted to bring the i30 in from Europe,
how ever the first batch is coming in from Korea. Does anyone know if there is a difference in the cars?
