nothing a T3 turbo kit couldn't fix.

If they were to bring it to the U.S., then should use a different name than the Accent.

Let's hope it's not just a "styling exercise" and that it actually goes to market. First though, the automatic has got to go, and it doesn't need to be a ridiculous 58 inches tall -- that's taller than our EVOs.

I heard that the new Accent is going to use the new cross-platform engine that Dodge, Mitsu, and Hyundai/Kia are making. That is the same engine that is going to be in the new evo, neon replacement, Kia Rio,etc. Of course all in different forms 1.6L-2.4 or 2.5L and some turbo some not depending on the car.

I would hop on that in a second. Reminds me of the Euro Corolla hatches. Dead sexy, and it's rare that I fall for a hatch.

I feel all funny inside. It's a Hyundai...and I...like it.

Unfortuntely, I also have a funny feeling that it will come to market as a 3200 lb., 190hp (from something like a 3.5L V6) that looks nothing like this concept. Car makers seem to be good at roally screwing up beautiful concept cars.

Seems rather big.....and the front grill doesn't fit me......but it looks like it'll be a nice car if it has a decent price range
