6 years of AWESOME Veloster

Got my Copper (Vitamin C) Veloster custom ordered 6 years ago. I waited 3 months for it to come from Korea, and it's extra special to me even 6 years later. It handles superbly, is great to view, and gas mileage is always 37 mpg+ I don't plan to ever get rid of it!

Love my Veloster

I was looking for another Hyundai car that had a manual transmission and the Veloster was available at the time I was looking. I did not buy it for it's looks but have received a lot of compliments from guys saying the think is it is a sharp looking car. After owning a basic Accent with no power features the Veloster is awesome. I especially like the back up camera. The car handles easily, and drives especially well on longer trips where you can open it up on the highway. Jim Price provides excellent service and the Hyundai Corp is very good about following up that their customer is satisfied.

Youngsters rev the engines of their mustangs and corvettes and I just laugh

Oh lets see 40 mpg with lots of pep and nice sound system . horse power in line with car market. Hyundai stands behind their cars. Sexy design has the kids thinking its a fast n furious muscle car. Also makes a great grocery getter

I quite like my Veloster. Gets good mileage and meets my needs.

I like 3 doors, my only suggestion would be to have the 3rd. door on the drivers side. Very inconvenient for loading and unloading stuff. Would be nice if upholstery had been of a higher quality so that It would have come back with cleaning which it did not. Rain left white spots as color came out of upholstery.

I love my Veloster

I have had my veloster since 2012 and drove it off the lot since the first 5 miles. It now has about 50,000 and she is the one the sexiest, best little run-about cars I have ever had. I am comfortable on a 6 lane highway doing 80 or a curvy back country road doing 30. Everything is within reach I love the hand controls. This is the best car ever!

Great vehicle

The Veloster is the best car I have ever own. I hate the thought of having to ever trade it in someday. This car is great for traveling. It is great to drive in the mountains. I truly get great gas mileage.

Love my Veloster

I love my Veloster. I was one of the first to buy the Veloster in my town, in 2012. The car has given me no problems. The style of the Veloster is timeless. After 6 years, it still looks like a new year model car. When I'm ready to buy another car, it will most definitely be a Veloster.

Awesome car!

I really love this car! I only wish it had more horses and bigger engine.The design is great and it is a very confortable car. Also very easy to upgrade! The system is the only thing I have had issues with but other than that it all works great.

Great car

I bought my veloster brand new in 2012, since I have put 199,200 miles on it. They only work I have done to it is oil changes, tires, brakes, belts, battery, transmission service, and bulbs. All the normal high mileage stuff. Can’t beat the gas mileage. Two recommendation is to put a spare tire and jack in it (especially if you have the 18’s with the low profile tire) or you will be calling a tow truck to come get you, and put a cold air filter and take the factory air filter and housing off (that will take the hesitation out of it when you hit the gas petal).

I love my Veloster

I've had my Veloster for three years now and, I absolutely love it, it's comfortable, safe and really beautiful inside and out. Driving my Veloster in a hour commute to and from work is the highlight of my commute. I wouldn't trade it for any other car.

Vivacious veloster

I love my Veloster. I have had for 6 years and wouldn’t trade it for anything. It’s cute and sporty, quite the head turner. I am constantly getting compliments on it. This beauty is great on gas and maintenance costs have been low. I’m looking forward to keeping it a long time.

Veloster

The veloster is a fun sporty car with all the room and tech you need. I recommend the full tech package. the sunroof is awesome. the way it handles is great, I just drove it thru the winter and I live in the boonies. Front wheel drive with anti-slip worked great during those snowy rides. now that the summer tires are going back on i look forward to a summer of fun rides. plenty of space in the trunk for all your stuff. my kids like the bluetooth and the third door. its a nice option for when there friends are riding with us. 4 is all she'll carry tho and even that's tight if there adults. engine is a bit noisy but once it warms up, you can barely hear it. comfortable car to drive.

My 2012 Veloster

Although we encountered a few problems after purchase (which were handled in an efficient fair manner) I love the car and plan on buying a new one again from Piazza - as long as they don’t discontinue the model (I owned 2 Tiburons before they discontinued the model)

Veloster??

This is the most stable and road hugging car I ever drove. And I have driven many cars in my day including CRX Honda, Miata, Camaro and Kia. This car has a solid field to it. Nice! Whoever had this car before me was hard bent on destroying it and this would include the engine as well. With a little help from my advisor together is much better than before. Yet, I still have to work on the engine more! The car does perform well and is a lot of fun but, I do not understand why they call this car slow? Note however, my Veloster is a manual shift car and not a CVT.
