It's a concept so it doesn't count.

Not a bad looking concept. The site itself though reads like a high school kid's attempt to write a poem to the hot chick that sits next to him in Algebra.
"The single line, which we call the "Parabolic Line", cuts through the muscular surface like a three-piece suit tailored for a world-class athlete". Ugm.....sure?

Looks overengineered and definitely out of my price range.

I can pretty much see where the fault codes will lie with this model. Squarely on your shoulders.

The side follows the traditional GT model design with a long hood and a short rear, and the two-lined lamps leading to the headlamps and taillights are impressive. In addition, the arching Parabolic Line that runs along the side, and the fender’s maximized volume, create a dynamic and elegant impression. The rear design, incorporating the shape of a horseshoe, exudes a simple and sleek image, while the voluminous fender creates a sophisticated, yet strong impression.

This is of no interest to me at all. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. The real thing will of course be way tamed down but it will have to be radically different than this to even slightly gain my interest.

Unless of course you are referring to the other model, in which case I chalk it up to either a lot effort combined with good genes, or a superior photoshop artist.

Like any other Korean-made car, good for about 80,000 miles before it starts having major problems. You'll be lucky if you make it to 80,000 without some form of minor issue.

EDIT: I should be clear, I did all of that mileage in 4.5 years too. Hyundai has been good and reliable since '01ish.
