2007 Hyundai Accent SE chaos

Automobilemag shared a video:


What happens when a Korean carmaker throws an aftermarket short shift kit, cold air intake, and front stress bar onto its entry-level hatchback? Suddenly, a goofy little front-driver becomes Chuckable Rallycar Junior. We spent a day with the Hyundai Accent SE on the unpaved back roads around Ann Arbor–and we actually had a lot of fun.

It seems like that guy would have been more likely to run it in a Pride Parade.

I have a ‘99 accent and every couple of weeks I take it out to the mountains in oregon and run the hell out of it,the dammed thing just keeps running and running.I have made a few mods to the motor and it actually will max out the speedo,130 not anything to brag about but not bad for tin can.

Rally Racing FTW!!!!!!!

And I think it’s amazing that it’s more fun than the Honda Fit, because, many reviews say that the Fit is concentrated with fun…..

This is the thread where poor people show their cars and consuel.

It hates you too. That’s the old Accent you’re talking about. The new one is, simply put, pretty damn good.

Last year i borrowd an 2002 something hyundai Accent, it was simple, my wife told me that she hates that car, and when i was filling it with gas, the engine didn’t start, after 2 minutes trying to start it, it started and idled at 3,000 rpm. I fucking **** Hyundai Accent.

I own the exact twin of this car in the video. This is a Charcoal Gray Hyundai Accent 2007 SE (alloy-wheels, sunroof, 6-speaker 6cd changer sound system, spoiler, any many more extras). I own a stick shift version and it is a blast driving it!

#18 Ghettokracker71 on 04.27.09 at 2:31 am

I have a red GLS 07 hatch…base model, I like it alot. Its no sports car esp. compared to my highly modded integra

#19 aoes on 04.30.09 at 2:56 am

YES! I have that very same car, same color, and I’m looking into aftermarket options. Awesome! :D

#20 o0kat0o on 05.02.09 at 5:30 am

It is the 2007.. I own the 2007 hatchback. I own the SE edition and I love it!

This looks like an ‘07 Hyundai Accent Hatchback – not the ‘06.
