Depending on how the turbo version is priced this will probably replace the xD...kinda sad when Hyundai is outperforming Toyota.

Well in general if you factor in the cost of gas the xD does not look so good. This is an interesting read http://blogs.cars.com/kickingtires/2...e-new-car.html The Accent and Veloster share the same powerplant.

that rear view angle viewing area has me concerned. It kind of looks like a smaller version of the Infinity FX (not that thats bad or good). Price sounds iffy. I'd have to drive one, and check my mirrors (not for lip-stick smear either ;-)
