A lot of the newer models have a flat color to the paint. Does this have any metal flake?

I haven't been able to tell because when I bought it it was rainy and dark and the next days it was all dirty. I'm going to get it washed today and see what's what
Btw it has product on the paint and interior (Xzilon) and was already on the car and has a "7 year warranty"

OK. I give. What model of Hyundia is that? I am shocked you got rid of the blue one. Time for a change?
I am falling in love with it in short order. Exceptional driving experience. It is a replacement for my forever car, Infiniti 400 Red Sport, which was recently totaled. I was heartbroken but am quickly getting over it. I have driven many great cars over the years but the Giulia reminds me most of my early 80’s RX-7. Not as luxurious as the 400 but more fun to drive.

I'm glad your ok from the accident!
It's unusual to see silver wheels on it actually. I saw a Guilia Quadrifoglio last week in the same color as your ride, really stands out but then again I'm a little partial to that color, my previous car was a similar color
The more prep and maintence you do to that color the more you'll get out of it...more is better

It's a 2022 Hyundai Elantra N and I basically took advantage of the used car buying frenzy right now. Yeah my car was a bit more but I wanted a change and anyways that car was attached to my ex. Since then I've been through some real lows, even stayed away from AG, went through counseling and slowly life has gotten better and this is just a small part of it
Didn't mean to get too heavy but for me a car is more than getting from A to B and since I can't afford a "toy", this was my next best option! There's something about knowing what's waiting for you every morning when you take your daughter to daycare or getting off of work, it's really good therapy for me
️My old Abarth did this for me and while I liked the ES and will never bad mouth it, THIS car is in an entirely different league

You are right about the wheels. I don’t see many similar and honestly would prefer the black but I bought it used (2021 w/5k mi) so it is what it is. The paint is in excellent condition save for a very small area on the hood that I will wet sand and touch up. I will still properly clay, polish and wax because that’s how I roll. ��

Get your kicks on any route you want.
We’ve unleashed a balanced, high-performance sedan that’s perfect for both time attack laps and as an everyday car. With 276 hp, it’s a cornering machine that makes driving more personal by letting you customize the drive mode and exhaust notes. Performance never felt or sounded this fun.
Sounds fun to me!

The other finish may look black but it's more of a dark anthracite and would provide some contrast
Maybe you could have them powder coated down the roadSent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

That Xzilon crap was what they talked my wife into when she bought the Tacoma
3D One took care of that real quick
Assuming there was even anything there in the first place

The Giulia is certainly a very nice powertrain but the Italian reliability is what scarred me away. I hope you have better luck than most. Either way it sure will be fun for a while.
Definitely a concern I considered. I do have a lot of warranty left. ��

Yeah man I figured something was going on in your life when you were away. Glad you work through it and getting back to your garage therapy.
Mental shifts tough to deal with, you know AG peeps are here for you though.
Alrhough I thought your last car looked nice i didn’t think it fit the car guy you are…. The N fits and you ####### deserve it.
And yes this car is in a whole different “Klasse”
