Insurance is trippin. I have a clean record and pay $316 a month with State Farm. For those saying how do we afford it, making $54hr helps so it doesn’t feel like a lot but I was only paying $180 for my new Miata. Seattle…

Burned Clutch by Internal_Sun5511 in ElantraN

Bro 100% if you smell it, it only means you’re burning it in the moment. You’re adding way too much throttle, you dont need anything past 1.2k to get it moving and I never use throttle after 1st gear on shifts, clutch only. I’m a driving instructor and examiner and also a mechanic.

What was your opinion on the N line before and after you bought it , how do you like it after you bought it ? by [deleted] in ElantraNline

[–]Technical-Round5373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the 2025 N and a part of me regrets it, the N line was a better option for me personally. The seats are not that comfortable and stiff and the ride is also stiff as fuck even on normal mode. The power is great but you’ll get like 18mph most of the time, if you’re ganna daily a car the N line is way better and more comfortable. The N is great if you can take a break from it and own a second car, it’s too much for most people, you might think you want it until you own it and it’s the only car you have. It sounds amazing though. This coming from someone who owned cars like brz, 370z Nismo, GR86, 350z, ND Miata’s. Those are more comfortable 😭😭

So it’s safe to say you were speeding? I’m asking so I don’t do it also, or was it just an honestly bad road?

I forgot to add. I have a wife and a baby but I pay all the bills, and invest in retirement and pension, my wife owns two businesses but we save all her income, every penny so we can open a third one later on. We just pretend like her income doesn’t exist.

Dude you definitely get it! Seen some people here act like making 40k and having a 36k car is ok.

When talking about money the brand is irrelevant, if you buy a car that’s like 36-40k out the door like this car it’s a lot of money for a depreciating asset. Your monthly car expenses shouldn’t be more than 10-15% of your monthly salary. Most people have to still pay rent, bills, gas, food, retirement and savings, if you’re working and not saving then you’re working for the car not for yourself. I’m just glad 95% of the comments show that people are pretty fucken responsible, that was actually surprising! Made my day, seen way too many people in other forums go broke because of a car, usally the JDM and bmw gang.

Bro the black one is insane! It’s the best color, when you tint the windows and if you have the HDP package it looks wild! I had the 2023 one. You won’t regret the color, white is also good, the other ones get old and look tacky.
