    2.4L putting out 185 horsepower is great. This car does 0-60 in about 8 seconds? That's fast! Of course it will feel slow when compared a Mustang GT or a Jaaaaaaaaaagg.

    I find Hyundai's direct injection system is very noisy after a cold start. To me it sounds similar to what you heard, like a piece of plastic caught in a fan or playing cards in bicycle spokes. It always goes away after the engine reaches normal temperature and is barely noticeable.

    Ugh, the high-traffic/high-stress on this road sounds a lot like I-35 between Austin and Dallas.
  • Do you plan on bringing it in to the dealer for the Android Auto update?
