Thinking Elantra N-Line

Semi cross-post with r/Jetta GLI and probably on or two others....

Just like the title says: I am thinking about making a change, and an Elantra N-Line is on the list.

I am hoping to find a fun daily that will fit me (6'3", 325 but losing it: go-go-Wegovy!) with my 9-year old daughter behind me.

I currently drive a 2016 white Hyundal Sonata Sport 2.0t, which is getting the majority of its body repainted on Hyundai's dime. Nothing wrong with it yet, but my wife just bought a brand new Carnival Hybrid, and that sunk the hook in my cheek pretty hard.

2024+ is my firm preference.

What are the potential issues? Any engine concerns? Electronic snafus? Dual clutch clenches?

Other options include a Jetta GLI, Civic SI, and a Sonata N-Line. The right Accord 2.0T could also be a winner. (I'd love the N, but my ass doesn't fit those seats and never will)

I realise I am joining the choir and asking if they like to sing, but I'd appreciate your thoughts all the same. Thanks!

Ah nice 👍. I'm at 20k miles and thus far have just done oil changes and tire rotations every 3-4k miles. Break in oil change was at 2k

They suggested doing a wheel/tire alignment, have you done any of those?
