You and I are a lot alike bud. I'm currently signing up for uber. going to try to pull a slick one, and use the ES I'm buying as the uber car (vin/insurance/etc), then dumping it. It's actually a smart move/incentive by Hyundai to get people into their cars. I might keep uber, and use it a time or two just to show off what Hyundai has become..... then again, I don't feel like being stabbed, and I'm steadily employed
I haven't purchased a new vehicle since 2003

I've always been into the classics. With all the texting drivers, I've sold all my motorcycles with the exception of an old bobber. Had a roush clone mustang and sold it because I made money (on a mustang????) I found the ES from shopping for new Civic SIs, comments in the SI's youtube videos kept praising the ES. It's exactly what I was wanting, something somewhat sporty with good gas mileage, and a manual transmission. The price point of it new vs something half-ragged out makes it a no brainer.
Thanks for the tip, Dealer told me I had to keep Hyundai financing 3 months, another dealer told me 4 payments before refi/payoff.
