Well I'm getting alot closer to getting a new car. My dilemma is I can't decide between the VT or the G-coupe 2.0T R-spec. I got to test out the G and I loved how it pulled and that it had the boost gauge and lsd... On the other hand I love how the VT looks.....

I'm about to just toss a coin in the air to decide the fate.

Well you gotta ask yourself what are you looking for in a car?

 

[MTD]

I have both if there are any direct comparisons you might want or any questions about the GC. Ask away.

I was too. but I've always wanted a hatch. either way your golden. your either on vt.org or on them gencoupe forums.

not only what you've mentioned, but you can have aggressive fitments on there too. the vt rear camber has no adjustability.

I love my VT, but if the GC had been a hatch like the MG B GT or the e36/4 Z3 M Coupé would of hopped on that faster than a chicken running from Frank Perdue.

I think the main difference is rwd with lsd or fwd without lsd...

That an 0.4 L of displacement.

And the hatch, did I mention the hatch?

I drove a GC before buying the VT.....very happy with my choice

 

[SkittleZ]

Yeah the more I think about it the more I want to do a green dipped VT than a G. I don't really plan on racing it anyhow so no "real" need for the LSD. Guess I should start looking for a black ultimate.

 

[joebmoore4]

the reason why I bought the VT is because of its looks and its performance it's different than anything else out there on the road .....it's an eye-catcher everywhere I go..... it's quick and has good gas mileage and it's versatile you can ask for anything better

Wouldn't you want to start with a white base if you are going Skittle Green?

 

[VelosterDom]

Great point^^^ I loved it after I drove it for 1 minute and at least 50 people turned their heads to see what the hell it was, one guy even rolled down his window and asked. the car is so unique and the styling options and personality it has and you can do to it are amazing and endless. If you want a car that you fall in love with again and again every morning when you see it. You want a Veloster Turbo. Plain and simple.

But he wouldn't want to ruin a sexy pearl elite white

At the end of the day, it all depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for flat-out performance, the GC is the obvious choice.

But with one week and 600-plus-miles behind the wheel, the VT has been everything I’d hoped it would be — and more. It’s a riot to row through the gears on a windy country road, the fuel economy has been excellent (I’ve gotten a solid 33 mpg, driving it like I stole it), and it’s elicited “oohs and aahs,” everywhere I’ve been. It’s also a very functional daily driver, with (just enough) room for a third passenger, groceries or other cargo. (Go ahead, try putting five bags of mulch and a set of golf clubs in a GC, or a BRZ.)

It's not a perfect car (we'd all love 50 more horses under the hood, right?), but it's a pretty great car in so many ways. And that's good enough for me.

Actually for plasti-dip it would be better to go with a black undertone since I am going with a darker emerald green. Think of the 2011 Synergy Green Camaro

Well, at this point it does not look like I will be getting any car any time soon.

Last August I was rear ended, my wife ended up getting a bulged disk and cracked vertebre. Almost a year later the insurance finally came back with their final offer and after the medical bills, car repair and lawyers fees I'm supposed to get a whole whopping $374 and my wife gets $2458.....

So with that said it looks like we will be taking this to litigation through the court. Heck just the $374 would not even cover the repair of the car.


Insurance Companies SUCK!!!!!! :crying:

Sorry to hear about that.

Only 2458? wow man I am so sorry for you.

Here is Miami it is whole different story, 2 years ago a big truck hit my uncle's car from behind while driving on the free way sending him toward another car.

Not to make the story too long, he broke his arm and the car was damaged but fixable and the insurance paid my uncle 12,000 Dollars for his broke arm!!!

You need a better lawyer.


I hope you wife gets better, I wish you the best good luck.

 

[SkittleZ]

yeah thanks, we will see what options we have available.
