The Korean GTI
Fast, comfortable, great exterior visibility, turbocharged engine sold the car. Outstanding pickup for a smallish four-banger, some torque steer over rough surfaces but overall FWD vehicles have come a long way since the 1980s. Fourth vehicle from the "GM of Korea:" '09 Kia Borego (trade-in), '14 Forte5 (main bearing failure at 125K), '18 Elantra GT (hit by inattentive driver who decided to do an impromptu redesign of the Hyundai's front end, totalled) and now the '19 Elantra GT N-Line
