Came in this thread and had to post. I just traded out of a Veloster into a JCW hardtop. Very happy with my decision! I started a thread in the newbie page if you wanna see the pics.

 

I test drove a Veloster among many others. After seeing the MC Roadster at the NYC auto show and finding that I fit in it with plenty of room, I was hooked. I took one for a ride and bought it. I know a turbo Veloster is due out soon but the Roadster S was an easy choice. I even spoke to a Hyundai rep at the show about the Veloster being slow. He told me that even though it looks like a sports car, it isn't. It's a compact car. The turbo version is for those who want more. The turbo also is coming in a flat paint (silver). It looks awesome but a PAIN to maintain I was told.

 

Having run flats dose make it ride a bit hard but I got non run flat performance tires a couple of months ago and holy cow is there a difference the ride is soooooo much smoother and not at harsh. As for the squeaks mine dose have a few but I drive with music on all the time so I don't real hear them haha and even then they really don't bother me.
