its a hyundai, its supposed to surprise you somewhere :rofl:
anyway, what i think is funny is i think thats the steering wheel (or a design of it) that they're gonna use in the HD
whoa?!? it came with an alpine HU? now that is surprising for rental companies! normally they just leave in the stock one.

for some reason the only renatl company around here that leaves the stock HU in is the one on base. Other than that they all have aftermarket cd players in them

I like the guages better than the 04s, they look like the tibbys

same way with our rentals in Bosnia, they all had aftermarket headunits with removable faceplates.
How long you been in Iceland, or going to be there? I'm trying to get stationed there.
Right now the only openings are in Germany, Azores, or Korea.

Screw that. I don't like the food, I don't drink, and there isn't much else to do there except wear chem gear. Plus my new wife wouldn't be able to accompany me.
I prefer Iceland, England, Germany, Italy... etc
You get a lot more money, better place to live, and my wife comes too. :D

I've read before that many of the smaller cheaper cars in Europe don't come with a stock radio/headunit at all. Could that be the reason?
I still wish we had the Getz/Click here, but the Accent SE/GS will be good I guess.

The Getz looks cool.
I'd mod it if I owned one :D

Heck, there is one sitting in my neighbors driveway right now (family visiting from Mexico).
I saw it the first night they were here and they put a cover over it the next morning before I could get some pics, and it is still sitting there covered.

Not bad. I just put an Alpine CDA-9857 HU in my Sonata. Vastly suprerior to any stock Hyundai head unit! (The one out of mine was made in Mexico by Visteon)

Reminds me of an Aveo.
with all the new micro cars coming out I think Hyundai should really think about bringing this one to the US.

I like the Getz, it's cheap, reliable and getz you to where you want to be. :tongue:
They are EXTREMELY common over here. ;)
I would NOT want to own one. :cool:
