Its all f@#ked up. They only care about selling that car to make a quick buck. No respect whatsoever for its background, heritage and history. Not just them, its any Honda dealership for that matter. They only see it as a money making operation and American Honda is responsible for that.

They have never taken the effort to establish the brand like Nissan and Mazda have.

Don't even get me started on the colors people list for S2000

So I pull into the Hyundai dealership last night on the way to Lowe's
It was like 80 here yesterday
There were a bunch of sales people hanging outside by the front door
I pull up in the truck, and lower the side window and look at them
Eventually one of them decides to walk over
I smile, greet him, say something about how awesome it is to be outside and the guys agrees, seems nice enough
I ask him, "So, when ya getting a Veloster in?"
Guy looks at me like I have three heads
I ask again, "any idea when the Velosters are going to start showing up at dealerships?"
Guy says, "I'm sorry, I don't know what that is"
I say, "sorry, maybe I'm pronouncing it wrong, V E L O S T E R, Veloster"
Guy says, "nope, never heard of it, what is it?"
I say, "well it's the new Hyundai, it's a new hatchback for you guys, it takes over the Tiburon spot"
Guys says, "don't know anything about it"

I raise the window and drive away
WTF???

Well... my frame is tweaked most likely. The shop went to do the alignment and could not get toe or camber to UK spec. The rear camber on one side would not go past -2.6 (so more positive) and the toe was all effed up. The other side could get -2 camber as well as the correct toe. the subframe is perfectly lined up with the frame (this is the new.. used...ap2 subframe and arms/knuckles i got)


I will be purchasing SPC joints for the rear in the next couple of weeks. This means there will be no tracking for me this summer... no HPDEs what so ever.

this summer is turning out to be a total :fail: with the S.
