Thanks for the report.Did you get to try the auto trans in manual mode? I'd like to give one a try.Also, does anyone know why the front bumpers are black on some cars and painted on others?It doesn't seem to be Actives in black as I would have thought

The twin chrome bars on the new higher spec models don't do anything for me. Much too busy and complex from a design point of view. I would have preferred either a chrome strip along the top with the Hyundai logo in the middle, much like the current design of our original i30's, or a couple of thinner chrome horizontal lines (parallel) across the middle of the top section with the logo in the middle. The non-parallel chrome bars, while probably inspired by their fluidic design concept, cheapen the look of the car IMO. I would have to agree that the lower spec model with the painted infill seems a more coherent design. I've never ever really liked the way Peugeot went with the huge open gaping hole grille on their later model 307's and 308's that looked as though someone forgot to put the rest of the front on the car during manufacture! What do others think?
Don't need photoshop, just need to look at the base model at your dealer!
Yes Designed by a committee
That might be the same here then.Is it just me or does anyone else think that the painted version looks more upmarket?
