Looks wise - love it. Especially the seats and alloys. However, it just doesn't seem right that a car with 140bhp has 4 exhausts. Or a 0-60 time of 9.3 seconds despite having looks that suggest it'd be rivalling 335i's/370z's/E46 M3's/Audi S's.

When I first saw it, i thought it'd be some limited edition 1 of only 500 Audi TT-S rival, with a 300bhp V6 under the bonnet. Disappointed with what's under the bonnet :(

140bhp with 0-60 in 9.3?!

Eh, my Yaris is faster than that!

9.3s?

Oooozes class? :confused:

A Bentley ooozes class, as does an S class or XJ, i don't think the Hyundai quite matches up to those...

It looks ok but going by the reviews it's all style and little else.

Only my opinion pal :p

A Bentley (GT) no longer "oozes class" - to me - they've been oversubscribed by footballers and new-money chavs (round my way, anyway)...

Not as bad as those that purchase a 300C and then stick the Bentley logo on it... :confused:

Even the V6 is lacklustre in these. It's a great looking thing but I feel Hyundai really missed a trick by ignoring the performance and dynamics aspect. :(

+1. Although they do have a car where the looks are matched by the performance figures. They just don't sell it in this country.

348 Bhp and 295 lb-ft so it should shift.
