agreed, love the maxy color way better. it's not that bright in person. looks a lot better in the shade with sun in background. still have the max, runs really good after all the work i put into engine.

yeah, i like it. spent hours making it look and feel like it should cause you know the dealer won't clean it the way i would. looks great now!! pics to come....
if you'll notice, the rocker panel in the first post is pushed in and had some paint loss. i *****ed at the dealer about that and the drivers headlight being cracked, they fixed it. reason i had to spend over 6 hours claying the car was after the body guy painted the car, there was overspray all over the entire car, that was the second time i had to clay the car. obviously the idiot that owned the car before me didn't know how to drive and the car had damage underneath as well. they tried to hide it with a quicky paint job on the front bumper. i had to replace the drivers side wiper blade cause it was shot, and the engine cover underneath was partially missing. i replaced that at my cost, should not have had to. i don't know how i missed all the damage to the car, guess i was so tired of looking at cars and it got dark. i'm still pissed at this dealer for all the trouble i had to go through to get this car straight. there was no accidents reported to car fax, not surprised, people will do anything to avoid insurance rates going up, plus because of the mileage i think the car was repossessed by the bank. welp, it's my new little hyundai now, and she's gonna be treated to many details and as many upgrades as possible. already got weather tech mats and a new center console drawer as there is limited space in this compact. feel like a fish in a can someday's in this car, but it's got plenty of tech and she gets 28 miles to the gallon. won't be winning any races with my 2.0, but she gets along pretty good.
