Since last May, going on one year now.

Is there anything special, unique, or different concerning the history of your Elantra?

It's straight piped with gold wheels!

Honestly, what was your intention when you bought your Elantra?

Crown Hyundai St Pete was out of 2.7l Tiburons, but this one stood out to me.



What was your intention after discovering EXD (or other Hyundai forums)?

Start modding as soon as I discovered some overseas support from very few companies.

In one word describe the style of your Elantra.

Honday, like Sunday. ADMIN Note: That should probably be Hunday, like Sunday, of course, that's more than one word anyway.

Who helped modify your Elantra?

Mostly me, my friend Andy and my girlfriend.



What do you like most about your Elantra?

The stance of the car and the way the wheels contrast with the paint.

What do you like least about your Elantra?

Auto-tragic.

Delta-swap or coilovers.



On a scale from 0-10, how would you rate your Elantra?

8.

Most commonly, what do people say about your Elantra?

"What do you got done to the hi-un-day?"

Who is allowed to drive your Elantra?

Me, my parents, but not my girlfriend because she drives like a maniac.

What is the most outrageous thing you have wanted to do to your car that you have not been able to do?

NGM supercharger kit.



What kind of car did you own (or drive) before your Elantra?

My first car was a '89 Mustang LX with a 2.3t swap, second was an '03 Ranger XLT I was bumming from my dad cause my Mustang blew up.

Realistically, what kind of car is next?

To be honest, as much as I love my car, I think a first gen Mazda Miata MX5, 3rd gen Jetta, or a earlier Honda ef hatch (89 style), or maybe another Moosetang.
