1992 Hyundai Scoupe Base / Sport review from North America
"Yarmouth Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
- Radiator was replaced before I purchased it.
- Gas meter stopped reading properly.
- Slight malfunctions in electronics.
- Starter had to be replaced at 160 000 KM.
General comments?
This Scoupe is running on a 1.5 Litre 4 Cyl. 16 Valve engine, manual 5 speed transmission. The car has a fair amount of power and puts out around 95 HP and 100 Lbs of torque. The car has a decent top speed comsidering the HP at around 200 KM/H. 0-60MPH time is mostly found to be around 8 seconds flat when drivin right.
The car has decently comfortable stock interior and adjustable seats. The back seats are small, but a decent size for a 2 door coupe. Overall the interior of the car is a decent set up, with a small dash, fair sized glove compartment and an OK factory stereo.
The exterior of the car has a fairly sporty look for the 90's which it was designed.
It's almost impossible to find exterior modifications on this car, so if you're buying one for that purpose, I suggest you should look for something else unless you know how to fiberglass your own bodykits.
The car is a fun little car to drive around the streets of Yarmouth where I live. It handles easily with it's loose steering, but can take corners relatively well.
If I had to rate the car overall I`d give it an 8/10. :)
