I flirted with getting a Veloster N.

It's an absolute blast to drive. The N Mode exhaust has way too many pops and bangs for my taste but it has an individual mode to fix that. The handling and direct feel of the car was incredible though.

The interior on the other hand was pretty terrible. EVERYTHING is hard black plastic and its cheap looking plastic too. They at least could put some padding on the arm rests or something. Interior alone turned me off from buying it. It was big step down from my 128i which isn't a luxury interior by any means.

I will say, the seats were very nice. Perfect amount of bolster and the cloth was comfortable and felt like it would hold up well. I second the poster that mentioned the i30N fastback. They should bring that to the US.
