I’m thinking of ordering me a 2023 Kona N in the fall But I refuse to pay over MSRP it’s against my religion if I do buy one it will be the slowest car that I’ve owned over the last 15 years so I hope this little commuter/grocery getter will satisfy my need for speed it looks like it’s pretty zippy with great handling 0-60 in 5.2 seconds & top speed of 149 is no joke but my slowest Corvette will do 0-60 in 4.8 & top speed of 167 The first time I did a 0 to 180 mph in my 2018 ZL1 the first words out of my mouth when I let off the gas was now I know why people modify even a 650 HP car i’ve been driving high horsepower cars for the last 25 years plus I just came across the Kona N about a month ago it definitely has caught my eye & I may decide to buy one at the end of the year

The Saturday Night Joke(s) Why do Tennessee fans wear orange? So they can dress that way for the game on Saturday, go hunting on Sunday, and pick up trash on Monday. What does the average Alabama player get on his SATs? Drool. How many Va Tech freshmen football players does it take to change a light bulb? None. That's a sophomore course. How did the Auburn football player die from drinking milk? The cow fell on him. Two Va Tech football players were walking in the woods. One of them said, " Look, a dead bird." The other looked up in the sky and said, "Where?" What do you say to a Florida State University football player dressed in a three-piece suit? "Will the defendant please rise." How can you tell if a Clemson football player has a girlfriend? There's tobacco juice on both sides of the pickup truck. What do you get when you put 32 West Virginia cheerleaders in one room? A full set of teeth. University of Michigan Coach Jim Harbaugh is only going to dress half of his players for the game this week. The other half will have to dress themselves. How is the Kansas football team like an opossum? They play dead at home and get killed on the road. How do you get a former University of Miami football player off your porch? Pay him for the pizza.

Was that the Stinger 3.3t you traded for the Kona? I have G70 3.3t with a JB4 and intakes and it’s pretty quick. I just wish it had a DCT and exhaust. Been looking for a replacement and kinda like to Kona N and Elantra N for the fun factor. I can’t find any of them locally to test drive.

I also owned a 2020 AWD GT Stinger GT 3.3TT and just got a Kona N and it is a much better daily driver.I sold the stinger 6 months ago because it skyrocketed in price.I bought a mazda CX-30 Premium Plus turbo outright and pocketed 10k--and amazingly last week carfax offered me 2k more then what i paid for my CX-30.I paid 1k total--just part of the taxes and own my Kona N--pretty much an even trade.Unbelievably I own the Kona N and came out pocketing about 9k from when I bought my stinger in 2020.I like to go up to the mountains to both drive and mountainbike and the stinger was just too low to go to many of the places--.I plan on shooting some videos after the break in period.This vehicle also looks like it could fit 245 series tires and if so would make this a handling monster if someone wanted to.
