Congrats.  Really like the color.

Just saw one in person for the first time, and I was super impressed, from exterior to interior.  Didn't realize it got 40mpg - that's probably the best thing.

How's the space in the back?
 
Grats on the car. Good deal on free maintenance and tires too.
 
I'm not feelin it, I dunno, shoulda got it in black. Nice gas mileage.
 
Like the car. I test drove one and honestly it just didnt have any pickup speed at all IMO. My 20 year old accord is alot faster so didnt get it. Nice car but Ill wait and test drive the turbo joint.
 
space in the back is so so. i like the 3rd door tho lol. and picked the color because you dont see much in this color. and going to tint it this weekend and get
black rims later.already ordered a CAI..and im a Lakers fan lol
 
You got a really nice deal.
Car looks weird to me, but if you like it that's all that matters.

and like dude said black would of looked cool too

was it auto or manual?

btw yellow is the most rare color for the V
 
Good choice on the manual transmission

I think the Veloster is alright but I don't like how it has 3 doors. I think it would look better with 2 doors...
 
im looking to get a car thats good on gas also.

thinking of a focus 5 door, i love the look of it.

i too have an impala lol

I just saw the pic and didnt really read at first, did not think it was going to be a Hybrid. The incentives sounds really nice, and the price is great. Thats an amazing buy.
 
i like the turbo but needed the car at this moment. and turbo dont release til spring maybe and is runninh around 24k-26 i believe. two diff packages.
