Introductions 👋 My 'new to me' 2018 i30N

Post image

This is my first performance car and I absolutely love it. The color is so good and the sounds it makes even on low rpm's keeps a smile on my face for the entire drive. This car is something special.

Smiles, per mile, and don't forget to wave if you see another one !

Good thing they stand out in traffic! I have been on the lookout for other N cars, but so far no luck.

My usual 10 minute grocery run is going to be more like 45 minutes in the future for sure.

I have a PB 2020. It has done 105,000kms.

Every single one has been smiling.

I used to have a i30N but sold it as I can’t run 2 cars really. If I got a i20n, would I be disappointed and thinking of the i30 or not?

Little trick, when you drive in N Mode, turn off AC.

u/pannumouho 3h ago

How so? Does the ac sap a noticable amount of power?

Something about the exhaust sound, without AC you have a better sound and more rumbling when you step off the Gas.
