@@ChurTrain depends on the exhaust mode and how hard you accelerate. In sport mode/N mode with the exhaust "open" it's discernible on just about every gearchange, particularly if you're driving hard. However, the exhaust is also loud so you sometimes don't hear the DSG farts as much as you might expect. The popping & crackling is pretty consistent too, and you can easily bring it on by flooring the car at say 40 km/h in 2nd gear up to 60 and then backing off the throttle. Long story short it sounds great, but you can dial it down if you want to be more subtle. It's just a genuinely fun car, as if Hyundai said "yeah we will make a few compromises on interior quality, features and so on ... but we just want the driver to have a smile on their face every time they sit behind the wheel".

@@ChurTrain I don't think you'll be disappointed. I love the Civic Type R but really wanted something with DCT/auto (my wife can't drive manual so she could never use my old Swift Sport). The Type R is perhaps a more complete package but so much more expensive. I got a good deal on my i30N by purchasing one that was about 18 months old and with ~7000km on the clock from the main dealer - was almost $25k off the new list price. If you want a bit more insight, KZitem search for "i30N interior review" and look for the video from a channel called 'i30N Owner' - that's me. I've got a few more videos coming up soon too on other aspects of ownership.

You have to realize how much launching the manual Type R kills it. It scrabbles off the line biting for traction whereas the others with launch control just hook and go. My mate has the N Sedan and gets 5.8 at best on launch mode, so these numbers seem right. I think it’d be reversed in a 60-120 though. Type R would be quick on the run with more power and torque. They’re not a traffic light hero though, they’re a proper drivers car.

You’re right re professionals and getting quoted 0-100 times in manuals. Yet you know every punter who owns one thinks THEY can get that time, if not beat it though. Pretenders.

Nah, it's all about the conditions - I can get low 5's with the Type R but I might have 3 runs in between where I only hit 6. Tough to launch.

Yes good idea. Type R should win then GR Corolla. GR will give decent results even if u not a track driver. WRX STI will be closely behind both I guess looking at Nurburgring and other track results. Maybe an older Focus RS might also be nice to join in

@@user-vk4vd7vr5t that’s why I want to see how it does against its hot hatch sibling, I know off the mark it’ll struggle due to lack of LSD and way too much torque for the front wheels, but in a roll it should be a hot contest, no channel has pitted these 2 cars against eachother.

Lose heavily. It's heavy and tyres just spin due to no lsd. The sedan N would win. Dunno about the hatch as it's slower.

@@mharro88 I own a Sonata N Line and I’ve driven an i30 Sedan N, off the mark I know the i30 N would win due to better grip, but my main interest is in real world performance which is gunning it together side by side from a roll, the Sonata is actually a rocketsled for roll-on performance. It’s the only N Line car to compete with the N’s as its performance times are very similar and equivalent to the likes of the i30 N (all body types) and Kona N.

I think you should play with the GRC a bit more. That 50KPH run in 3rd gear, would have put the GRC at 3k RPM or lower. If you look at the 1/4 mile run, 2ed gear lands at about 5k RPM after the first shift at about 65 KPH. A third gear run in the GRC would be done at about 80-90 KPH. The 3 Cylinder in the GRC was made to live in the 4-7k power band. Also, launching it in 30/70 creates additional power train loses that would have improved the 0-60 and 1/4 miles time. Toyota's AWD system limits your power if you try to put too much torque to the rear wheels in low gears. 60/40 or 50/50 is recommended for launches, and disabling the rear wheels is recommended for dyno runs. 30/70 does feel pretty good though.
