As I was leaving work today. While walking to my car, I had an older couple pull up in a Hyundai Elantra. They roll down their window and start asking me about the car. ( simple questions like gas mileage, my experiences with it, what I disliked about it and what other cars I looked at before buying this one. Even the wife was asking questions.) Fairly surprised they knew exactly what it was because mine is rebadge. I let them check out the interior as they were really curious about the space. We talked for maybe 15 minutes or so until they left. But moral of the story is. I was glad to see this car can attract any age group and how friendly people can be to approach someone.

I was at a red light with a big cargo truck next to me. Passenger asked me if it was fast, I responded "it's pretty quick"; so I gunned it off the line on green.
![]() Few gas station guys have also been curious. Also the occasional passerby asking questions. |
