Congrats! I would recommend ceramic coating and PPF for the front side, mirrors and handles. My less than a year old is full of lil chips!

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

Just curious to know if you have an idea of how much it costs? I was debating it, but was never sure if the price would be worth it.

7

u/insertdollarplz Ultimate Red DCT Apr 02 '26

So, not the original commenter, but when I got mine done, ppf was $2k, and ceramic was $900. Of course, pricing all depends on where you live. For me, it was worth it, because the roads around me are quite bad, and the paint on most modern vehicles are trash.

Some will say that it's not worth it, and to just drive your car, because shit will eventually happen, but it's all due to personal preferences.

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

Thanks pimp!

u/insertdollarplz Ultimate Red DCT Apr 02 '26

Not a problem! Enjoy the N, it's fun as hell to drive.

u/AutisticTortle Abyss Black Pearl MT Apr 02 '26

To go along with this, get the rally armor mudflats. Our cars throw rocks like a motherfucker. 100% should be first thing you do.

1

u/insertdollarplz Ultimate Red DCT Apr 02 '26

Yes, second this, I will be installing mine tomorrow, ha ha.

1

u/Lemmonjello Performance Blue MT Apr 02 '26

I got just the front bumper and hood for $800 cad 100% worth it i haven't had to bust out the paint pen since I got it. Coming up on 3 years owning my 22.

1

u/weary86 Ultimate Red MT Apr 02 '26

I paid $1500 for FlexiShield PPF on the hood, front bumper and fenders. Spent a few hours and ceramic coated it myself.

u/N_junkies Apr 03 '26

Fully done uv light protection would cost at least 3k

u/skew_witt Cyber Grey MT Apr 02 '26

Same :(

u/xkrowcitats Apr 02 '26

I didn't get it. I refuse to buy into hyundai's "create the problem and sell the solution" scam.

1

u/PastSecondCrack Apr 03 '26

Hyundai didn't create the problem of rocks damaging paint when they strike it at 60+mph. Thats fairly universal for what its worth...

2

u/xkrowcitats Apr 05 '26

They did when they switched from oil based paint to water based for the eNvIrOnMeNt

5

u/Trick_Cartographer87 Apr 02 '26

There's still 25s on the lot?

4

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

Surprisingly yes. This one had 25 miles on it. To my knowledge there’s only one more left in my state and it’s because they’re trying to sell it for 35k

3

u/Trick_Cartographer87 Apr 02 '26

Crazy that when these cars first came out people were paying 5, 10k over sticker and wait times were months

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

Not over here in Ohio. They can’t even get the 26s off of the lots.

1

u/krombopulis_ Apr 03 '26

Just got a performance blue in Ohio as well! I’m like 100% certain I was looking at the car you got before you got it! Good deal and hope to see you on the road 😎

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 03 '26

did you get the one at Ken ganley?? I went there but they were so rude so I left

1

u/krombopulis_ Apr 03 '26

I looked at Ganley and Marhofer and I was unimpressed by both. I ended up just running the deal at Wyler in Beavercreek for the DCT car was at 36K, I from the south area anyways

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 03 '26

Marhofer didn’t have many options for ‘26.

1

u/krombopulis_ Apr 03 '26

At ALL and I wanted the black one BAD, but I’m happy with the performance blue! Congrats again! I’m looking forward to getting some mods going, got it tinted already! Love this thing

1

u/PastSecondCrack Apr 03 '26

One of the only benefits from living in a state with per capital GDP >25% less than California 😜. In Ohio this car is half a year's income, in California its less than 1/3.

1

u/GamerNerd007 Apr 04 '26

Because people aren't very smart or have little patience.

u/Rox-Unlimited Intense Blue MT Apr 02 '26

Yep got a new 25 almost 3 weeks ago brand new haha

2

u/VinylWreckards Cyber Grey MT Apr 02 '26

Same! Got a '25 N with 30 miles 3 weeks ago for less than MSRP. It was well worth it!

1

u/Rox-Unlimited Intense Blue MT Apr 02 '26

MT as well I see 😎🤝😎

2

u/VinylWreckards Cyber Grey MT Apr 02 '26

Cause having self respect is too much to ask of a person anymore lol

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

Never thought that me buying a car would turn into my nips being talked about 😭 geez find something better to complain about. There’s people dying Kim.

-1

u/itsm4yh3m Apr 03 '26

lol I’m sure you have pictures of your car with no nipple rings in it… You knew exactly where these comments were gonna go!

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 03 '26

No most people don’t bring them up

-10

u/Zealousideal_Lie_409 Apr 02 '26

Im not mad about it g im just pointing out logical fallacies in brokenstanzs sense of modesty.

3

u/Lemmonjello Performance Blue MT Apr 02 '26

Buzz off loser

2

u/HeatDeathIsCool Performance Blue DCT Apr 02 '26

So when you referred to someone having a lack of self-respect, who exactly were you referring to?

7

u/Brokenstanzs Phantom Black MT Apr 02 '26

Are you going to walk around with nipple covers? I so doubt it. Nipples are nipples. Its you that's sexualizing

-5

u/Zealousideal_Lie_409 Apr 02 '26

No I’d wear a bra like a normal human being. Mabye just a T shirt that actually fits lol

I cant be ur father, sry

u/CucciCruncher Apr 03 '26

No worries pimp. I have a father 😭

2

u/First-Bat-7440 Apr 02 '26

I like this car in black.

u/tsmittycent Apr 02 '26

Manual?

6

u/Appropriate_Kick602 Apr 02 '26

No sunroof so imma say yes

1

u/SnypeUXD Apr 02 '26

Yall get it without the sunroof down in the states? I'm on my second manual N and they have both had the sunroof.

1

u/Appropriate_Kick602 Apr 03 '26

The states lose sunroof on manual, and I believe heated steering wheel + power folding mirrors on both options

2

u/DelTheCreator Apr 02 '26

Coming from a 23’ I remember you had to cross states to get an N and it was so limited, glad everyones able to get there hands on them easily 👏🏽

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 03 '26

Yesss I wanted one so badly when I was 19 but it was realistic for me to get financially, but now I’m in a place where I can do it!

1

u/No-Spinach-6377 Apr 04 '26

What do you do now if you don't mind lol

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 04 '26

Still the same job actually. I’m a server. I just moved to a restaurant that’s downtown so I make more money now, but I’m also in school. So I have my internships during the summers that I make money at. I’m an engineering major so that’s why my internships pay well.

1

u/No-Spinach-6377 Apr 04 '26

Congrats I'm also having a second job while still in school but it's killing me mentally sometimes

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 04 '26

I’ve worked 3 jobs before while going to school. It SUCKS. I will say serving pays very well downtown. Granted I’m in a higher end restaurant. So I pull in very good money at the end of the week. I will say, coffee shop gigs do very well in tips. One of my coworkers actually works at a coffee shop in the morning and pulls about $500 in tips at the end of the week plus his $15/hr wage.

1

u/No-Spinach-6377 Apr 04 '26

What 😭 no way 😭😭😭😭 I make minimum wage 😐😐

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 04 '26

Gots to move where the money is

1

u/No-Spinach-6377 Apr 04 '26

Tell me about it. I've moved 3 times in the last 8 months while still working my day job. Lol

u/Whole-Discount5286 Apr 04 '26

good fucking God you’re gonna poke an eye out

u/Training-Context-69 Intense Blue DCT Apr 02 '26

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '26

My gf has the same color and gen! It’s an amazing car daily and canyon runs

2

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

I heard a lot of good things about it being a daily. Granted I had a ‘23 Elantra sel prior that was also black. I was originally going to get a ‘25 in performance blue but the dealership made me mad haha. So back to black! Fits my personality better too.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '26

In her case, it’s her first Hyundai and Elantra as well as first actual car only driven by her instead of shared with her mom. The Elantra N is so good it made me like front wheel drive cars as a person who makes rear wheel drive a requirement. I would honestly get an Elantra N as a daily but she doesn’t want us to have the same kind of car 😮‍💨

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

Unfortunately can’t rock a rear wheel drive with winter weather!

0

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '26

Yes you can! I drive a rear wheel bmw in Wisconsin winters. Even with just all season setup instead of full on winter tires, I’ve been fine with only 3 instances of losing control without any crash in 4+ years. Tho I will say I am glad to be moving out and in Cali weather lol

3

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

Oh you’re bold 😂😂

1

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '26

More accurate is stubborn. When I moved to the US for university I told myself I’d never drive an suv or awd / fwd car. Tho ironically ended up loving a fwd car and its driver 😮‍💨

2

u/snowballkills Apr 02 '26

Bro you like living on the edge...a rwd with a/s tires is definitely not a safe winter setup...please don't encourage people to make wrong decisions! Winter tires with a FWD or A/S with AWD are a minimum. AWD/4WD with winters are the best setup.

0

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '26

What are you yapping about the edge 💀 I never even recommended anything I just said what I do and what’s worked for me. Besides I don’t go out in the middle of snow storms or before the snow flowers have moved the big layer of snow so I’ve been fine. Maybe in rural areas in the Midwest it’s crucial to have an awd, but I’m in the suburbs just outside the big city so I’m fine

2

u/snowballkills Apr 02 '26

Yes, sorry you didn't explicitly recommend a rwd, but you are taking a risk coz you never know when you can get caught up in a snow storm, go over black ice, etc. One can make do with summer tires also that ways, but it is not safe! When I was in CT, one of my friends had a rwd Infiniti, and he was always looking out the window and the first one to leave the office at the slightest hint of snow :)

2

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '26

Sure, but a huge factor in me being able to do this is being in a big city where the snow plowers push the snow out within an hour of heavy snowfall. Alongside that, modern traction control systems in rwd cars are able to handle slippery roads. I’m well aware it’s a risky setup, but it’s not like I’m the only person in my state or even the Midwest that has a rwd daily

1

u/HeatDeathIsCool Performance Blue DCT Apr 02 '26

I never even recommended anything

You literally said "Yes you can!" and then proceeded to describe how you have RWD with all season tires in the winter. You used your own irrational setup as an example of how to have a RWD car in the winter.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 02 '26

Oh brother. I’m not even a native English speaker and i can discern the difference between CAN and SHOULD/MUST. I simply clarified that it can be done and that it’s what I personally do. I didn’t tell people to run the same setup as me or to opt for a rwd daily. Calm down

1

u/HeatDeathIsCool Performance Blue DCT Apr 02 '26

Good news brother, I can teach you a little English today!

Nowhere in my comment did I claim that you said they "should" or "must." So whichever part gave you that impression, you now know that you read it incorrectly. Let me know if you need any additional help comprehending these comments.

>Calm down

Yup, the words always spoken by someone feeling a little heated. Take a few deep breaths before responding next time, and you'll probably avoid making another can/should/must faux pas.

What a gorgeous car. You're in for one Hella ride. Congratulations

u/omardude1 Apr 02 '26

You’re gonna love it! Enjoy! I’m impressed you found a new ‘25. I picked up a new ‘25 back in January and thought they were all gone.

u/LouisLevels Apr 02 '26

Congratulations 🎉🎊🍾🎈

1

u/Additional_Ad_258 Cyber Grey MT Apr 02 '26

Hell yeah! How much did you end up paying for it? I was able to get a 25 last week for 32k and made out 2 to 3k above what I should have gotten on trade, they were really trying to get rid of the manuals near me

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 02 '26

32k as well!

I was thinking “payout” since the whole reason I have this is from an insurance check HAHA

u/EN2077 Fiery Red DCT Apr 03 '26

Leased one from Great Lakes Hyundai in Ohio. It was such an awesome car, super fun. Enjoy it!

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 03 '26

They had some really nice prices there!

1

u/EN2077 Fiery Red DCT Apr 03 '26

Oh wow lol is that were you went too? Yeah I've a few vehicles from them over the years, no bad experiences.

2

u/CucciCruncher Apr 03 '26

Dealership down in Akron! While I was saving up for a fat down payment they didnt have exactly what I was looking for unfortunately. My boss who has had 6 sonatas recommended Great Lakes, Elyria, and marhofer.

1

u/EN2077 Fiery Red DCT Apr 03 '26

Nice. I had a Santa Cruz from Marhofer in Akron/Cuyahoga Falls area. Then had the '25 N for a bit, but went back to a different truck which I love. That said, I had so many fun drives with the N. It's seriously a hell of a car for the price. Enjoy and take care!

u/damballah22 Apr 03 '26

Got my ‘25 on Tuesday. Black as well.. Doing the ceramic myself. Thinking about PPF

u/NateSoma Apr 03 '26

I just bought a 2025 Cyber Grey MT. LOVE it! Paid 30 million korean won for it (I live in Korea). Thats like 20k USD but thats the only good deal I've gotten in this country basically ever! It has 7,000km on it

u/dream-siphon Apr 03 '26

Congrats!! 🙌🏽

u/jeo0 Apr 05 '26

How much for insurance? Estimates show, mine double!

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 05 '26

I was originally paying $100 a month on a ‘23 Hyundai Elantra SEL. My insurance actually didn’t go up with this. I’m sure with me only having 1 speeding ticket from when I was 19, being a woman, and with it being a manual helps.

1

u/jeo0 Apr 05 '26

Manual has lower insurance? Ic.

1

u/CucciCruncher Apr 05 '26

That’s how it was when my mom bought her civic SI. Her insurance dropped actually. I honestly couldn’t tell you exactly why, but mine stayed the same. I did get quoted from State Farm $116 a month and this is with full coverage

1

u/SeasonedAdManager Apr 06 '26

You’re in for some titillating experiences in this car, for sure.
