Damnit! Almost have my Rspec paid for. Didn't want another car payment for at least 5 years....



Oh wait, will probably be at least that long until we see something this cool come out of Korea. I'm good!

That's very interesting. I have my doubts that it'll be in a Veloster, but would be cool.

They may be testing it on the Veloster frame, but I'm sure it will be a different, much cooler body.
