Poacher, I see that you're the Moderator and I've searched this site to see if anyone else has gone the way I'm looking. Too many times I see that guys are lowering their cars and adding all the plastic aero goodies. fine for the "tuner types" but it's too many and too common. I didn't buy a Honda for a reason...Have you or anyone else out there gone the more robust Rallye style? Straight line be damned... I want something that can go the distance even when the pavement gets rough.

Here's the new Accent.

 

I think it is pretty decent. It is a little chubby, but it has potential. I am kind of glad that Hyundai got rid of the "midget trunk look" and made more of a true hatchback.

Tenick,

I know where you are coming from. I happen to be a fan of both styles myself. I have an Accent that is my little drag race monster and it holds true to the tuner styling (not as gaudy though). On the flipside I have an 86 VW rabbit that I have supercharged and given a rally suspension. I Dirt track race the little bastard and just love the rally racing scene. So I feel ya, Rally racing and Touring styles rock!
