With about 1,500 miles on it, I’m starting to really settle into it and the way it drives. I appreciate the way it’s still fun to drive without pushing it hard - with nice responsiveness at half throttle and solid handling. But when I need/want the quick acceleration, it comes on easily.
I seem to get the most attention from WRX owners. Several will pull up next to me on the highway to take a look at the Civic, then pull away with a “thumbs up.” I caught one in my rear view mirror snapping a picture, and another one doing the same in the Home Depot parking lot as I was walking toward my car.
It’s all fun.

I'll be interested in your take of the Elantra Sport - seems like a whole lotta car for the money.

Think you did the correct thing buying an Elantra at this juncture as it's beaucoup vehicle for the money and the 5 year B to Be is just the icing on the cake!!

Just can't seem to find CURRENT incentives. Most posts are a year or 2 old. And Uber's site makes you sign up to see the discounts.

It was an interesting visit with friends of ours a few years back. They have an amazing collection of guns inside the museum.

And I don't like tinted windows. Pet peeve of mine.
Hot rod is relative. But 201HP in a 2,900# car is no slouch.

Be interested in the driving dynamics compared to my 2013 Elantra GT - and my current 2016 Jetta.

The sport wasn’t out when I got mine, if it was I’m pretty sure I would have ponied up for it.
Even my SE is nice to drive and handles decent for what it is. I’m sure the sport is more pinned to the road.
Enjoy!
