Kinja'd!!!

It’s bold... it’s blue... it’s the 2016 Hyundai Sonata!

Kinja'd!!!

It’s not very fast.

Kinja'd!!!

But it has CarPlay!

Kinja'd!!!

Which I’ve found pretty handy. CarPlay is best in cars which lack native, in-dash navigation.

Kinja'd!!!

Apple Watch integration...

Kinja'd!!!

It comes equipped with a backup camera, although it’s not hard to see out the rear window.

Kinja'd!!!

And integrated SoundHound lets you sing karaoke while you drive!

Kinja'd!!!

It also looks pretty good for what it is... I’d say that it beats the outgoing Camry and the current Accord, but loses to the amazing Mazda6.

Well, there you go. I’ve been pleasantly surprised with its standard equipment (CarPlay, 7" touchscreen, rearview camera, satellite radio), the amount of rear legroom (coming from a 3-Series, that’s not saying much), and the interior fit-and-finish. Overall, not bad.

Ooo, nice! You’ll need to remove the no smoking signs before you can do burnouts though.

At this point, I might just throw it into the post itself...

Hahaha! I see what you did there. Too bad I can’t, because it’s a rental...

I had a Jeep Compass today. The radio looked like it should have had a tape deck and I don’t think there’s any way to adjust seat height, so my knees were smashed into the lower dash/steering column all day. I’m jealous...but if I hadn’t asked for 4wd I probably would’ve had something nicer.

It’s okay. We received a vile Hyundai Accent low on washer fluid and equipped with a burger under the hood. The only reason why we have this is because we called to complain and exchange it for something else...

Oh right right *headdesk*

They say short-term memory goes first.

Nice write-up btw

It’s a bit of a guilty feeling, to admit how surprisingly competent the last K-Car rental they gave me was [*categorically denies ever having said this*]

This one was better though :) (thanks, Enterprise-O’Hare) - pic to follow

Mmm. Red F30. Was it an Enterprise, Avis, or Sixt rental?

Enterprise :D

...is your friend if you like German

VIN last 7 NT44596 (I know, right? Serious geek :P ) in case you wanna pull the build sheet, see what you can get with Enterprise

Real nice ride; post-update F30's impressive

Regarding the VIN... heading to my favorite BMW VIN decoder right now.
