    The 2023 Hyundai Elantra N feels like it came completely out of nowhere. With it's loud N exhaust mode, crackles and pops, and turbocharged engine - it seems to check a lot of boxes for a car enthusiast. It has radical styling, a VERY nice interior, and fantastic handling. With a 10 year warranty and a ton of performance - this car doesn't seem to match up with it's value per dollar. I was so impressed with this car that I might have to say it's better than the new 2023 Acura Integra - something I wouldn't have guessed a few years ago. So what makes the Elantra N great? Let's talk about it.
    BONUS: Side note I feel terrible for the guy in California who got pulled over in this car for "modified exhaust" in a stock Hyundai Elantra N.

      Have you heard of the guy in cali who got a ticket for the exhaust being too loud? The car is completely stock, but he is going through a nightmare because of it. It’s such a nice car, but if you live in cali, or another strict state, I would be very careful.

    I have a friend who has one of these, in blue, and man it's sharp looking. Never considered myself a hyundai fan at all, but they really knocked this one out of the park. For what it is, I'd even argue it's the perfect mix of practical and fun for a "car guy" daily driver

    My only fear with this car is the dealerships don't know N from N-Line, and many will tell you they don't even know what oil goes in this car. I love it, but they are screwing with warranties with their own errors, and coming up with BS to not service them under warranty.

      Unfortunately you're spot on. I bought my N (DCT) from a reputable dealer I've been dealing with for decades but when it came to the N their service fell flat. I finally had to decline their "free maintenance" and began to do my own oil changes (6,000 miles between changes? ). They couldn't (or wouldn't) tell me what brand and weight of oil they used. Then the parts guys couldn't agree on which oil filter to give me. Hyundai is dropping the ball on a really great car.

      It's pretty much a given the DCT version will perform better at drag. 1/2 mile, roll race and track are a different matter though. Plus you must consider there's a new Type R coming out which we can assume will improve the formula and widen the gap further against its competitors.

    As a Hyundai i30N driver myself you missed out on chucking it through some corners. The cornering grip on the i30N & Elantra N is ABSURD. That E-LSD rips you through corners to the point you actually get slight oversteer.
    By far the most fun car I've ever driven.

As for me I’m on my 5th Honda with 0 catastrophic failures so far not a single one has left me stranded and my CRV is approaching 300,000 miles.
