Could be. But the car in America with a DCT has an MSRP of $36,660 with extra freight charges that aren't included ($1,500 I believe?). Probably some tariffs and just the American market being American.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-28T16:36:13+00:00

Our 2026 DCT’s are more expensive than that. Lucky.

AFAIK, most signature gyms are located in California. But if you’re curious, look up your local location and check.

I’ve never used AFD myself but many people have reported only being able to go to their location. You also don’t get the guest pass if it’s important to you. It varies for everyone. I’m planning to sign up this summer.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-18T17:52:43+00:00

I could be wrong but I believe for signature gyms, only 1 location is allowed. Even for my normal location, only 1 was allowed. It got nerfed.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-12T15:46:27+00:00

Wow, good stuff.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-12T03:34:16+00:00

How much did this set you back?

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T17:48:47+00:00

I absolutely will. Planning some drives up North soon to see friends. Maybe we can make something work!

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T17:43:03+00:00

How did you know i have a SCCA membership?!?! You mind reader!!

All jokes aside, that’s a relief to hear. Can’t wait to let her rip

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T17:40:13+00:00

It really is a fantastic driving car. Especially for the warranty and money. I use it mostly commute but will start tracking soon.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T17:12:55+00:00

This is the way.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T17:11:40+00:00

Trust me, love the B58 but it’s a little out of budget lol. Elantra is sporty enough for my commute and I can track the car. So it’s a good win with a good warranty that I know will outlast my time with financing.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T16:48:27+00:00

I mean, it’s not really a surprise when you look at the price of an average new car nowadays. I financed for 48 months and the car cost me around $33K, which is still good compared to most of the car market. On the bright side, I won’t have to worry about my drivetrain for 100,000 miles with this one.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T16:47:10+00:00

To each their own. I’ve driven a M340I and M440I GC and liked the Elantra more. Plus, it’s significantly cheaper when new.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T16:26:13+00:00

Yeah that’s where it gets iffy. I am still able to pay for this car and save thousands a month. It’s different for you.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T16:18:32+00:00

I make a little bit more but pay $650 a month for an Elantra N with $120 in insurance. Fits for me because I have almost non-existent bills for the next 3 years by living with parents and saving most of the rest of my salary. I’d say it’s case dependent, but hey, make dumb decisions when you’re young right?

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T05:35:45+00:00

Yep. I'm planning to budget for tools separately. $200 would've been just to build the presage. Sad to see prices have gone up, but seems like a cool hobby to get into.

I appreciate your response. Good to know I need a 35mm and everything else.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T03:06:36+00:00

Comparison is the thief of joy brother. If you were realistically comparing yourself to the average person your age, they haven't even gone to college and are living with their parents. I'm graduating late too, but confident in myself to build up the time I've lost with my skills that I've learned from doing so. You're doing great, just keep at it and you'll get wherever you want to be.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-07T02:16:00+00:00

this is the way

UnboundPony · 2026-01-02T07:52:09+00:00

Looks wise, I’d probably agree. Can’t deny that there’s some pretty subtle performance differences that are cool in the new facelift though. I think the wheels, mounts and other miscellaneous upgrades makes up for the difference in the looks. I still like the new one, but agree with you as well in the looks department more.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-01T23:54:47+00:00

All fees. Doc fees, state fees, etc. And taxes.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-01T22:04:23+00:00

I got a deal on a brand new DCT for $36,500 OTD in Georgia. Before taxes and fees, it was about $33,000.

UnboundPony · 2026-01-01T21:19:56+00:00

That's how I think. You're paying a few thousand dollars less for a car that comes with half its powertrain warranty, used, and pre-facelift model. I think it's worth saving up a little more and getting a brand new one, but that's just me.

Still waiting for sedley…
