Skin-deep Beauty

It may appear like a second-rate car, yes, insipid white finish and all, coupled with 18-inch Anthracite alloy wheels and carbon fiber radiator grille and front panel that fail to impress at first glance. But wait till you see the interior. Which is what practically gained this Hyundai, the special edition Hyundai i30 Sport, a spot in this blog’s roster of auto revolutionaries.

So what is up with that? Leather black highlighted by patches of luminescent blue which one may ordinarily encounter backlighting cheap MP3 players. There, I just gave you some hints. Leather the seats, the steering wheel (with audio controls), and the shift knob but are beyond the ordinary as they are heated; minty toothpaste blue the color of the lights not of tin can-sounding music tanks but of an audio system to blow your mind—with USB and AUX ports and six speakers. Add some cruise control and automatic climate control and we’re sealing the deal with this car.

Or, wait, is it Hyundai sealing the deal for us as they are producing only 200 units of these?

Think of it as another school of thought, or as a Leftist point of view, or as something modernly revolting against the good ol’ flame paint in the custom years of yore, or…whatever, this is not really making sense now. Bah! Just turn to these BMWs and see what I mean. [...]
