The car handles corners without significant body lean. The engine is quiet. Shifting gears is difficult.
Several lawsuits have been filed in regards to clutch failing. See below websites. Submit service failure to the Better Business Bureau. Complain to Hyundai automotive. Currently Hyundai has denied my claim.

This review holds no ground. How does this pull worse than your civic and with over 60000 miles you're complaining that you have to do regular maintenance. Back up your complaints with more details than "it looks good but it's slow" and "my friends said the car sucks".
