Owen C. Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I picked up a 2012 Hyundai Veloster with the duel clutch trans with a flappy paddle shifter. I love it. Its not a rocket by any means but it handles like its on rails. The 35-40 mpg is pretty nice too. My only gripe is you can't power brake the dct like a normal auto. Im looking into what it would take to make a launch button so I could get some revs up for off the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Question: does water leak into the rear hatch when you open it and it has water on it? like after it has rained (not while its raining duh)? I heard a rumor that was a really bad flaw in the hatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen C. Posted June 5, 2012 Author Share Posted June 5, 2012 Never had a problem. I live in the hill country south of austin and we have had some serious rain in the past month. My main gripe is the cruise control. It has a hard time keeping speed unless the road is relatively flat and it takes a bit more brake to disengage it than im comfortable with. Im used to my titan where just a touch will turn it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOTHALOSISM Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Thats cause the Titan is a Nissan a far better car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen C. Posted June 5, 2012 Author Share Posted June 5, 2012 Yes and it got 16mpg on a good day. For the same price I could have gotten a mid grade sentra with half the options. That's saying if the Nissan dealer would have hooked me up as well as the hyunai dealer did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
