Agree with this.
I drove one and it was alright, nothing spectacular, but nothing too horrible either.
Feels comfy and sporty inside and it's certainly a head turner.
Two different sides looks terrible though. And I think they put the rear door on the wrong side.
Once you start noticing things like the asymmetric B-pillars (one sits closer to the front than the other) and the bussy rear end, the whole design just falls apart, imo.

Why do you think they have put the rear door on the wrong side? It's so the lazy ass driver doesn't have to get in/out which makes sense to me, I never used to when I had a 2dr car was always the passenger, and in this case it still is.

Looks alright but If I had 17k in my pocket I doubt I would be looking at second hand Hyundais

Am I completely missing your point or do you actually think the guy in the front seat has to get out for the backseat passenger to exit through the rear door?
And I think the door's in the wrong side as far more often you'll use the back seat for storage than for passengers. In these cases I'd be annoyed with having to walk around the car.

as balling said.
if anything, the lazy ass driver would have to get out if a stubborn passenger wouldn't get out the other door, as theres no where else for them to go.

Stubborn passenger? How old are you passengers?

it's just a scenario that nathy made up and i'm carrying on.
theres still no proper reason for only having a door on the passenger side. safer for kids i suppose, but most families don't buy these sort of cars.

I agree - it does seem a strange choice.
