I had a first gen veloster shortly and it was one of the worst manuals I've ever driven. The rev hang was so bad it made the yaris throttle response seem like a race car.

Sweet looking veloster. They have really come a long way with the styling.

Sounds pretty awful to make the Yaris throttle response feel anything resembling "race car".

Yeah, the car was not enjoyable to drive in any way. I sold it pretty quickly for a profit. I've heard these newer velosters are way better though. They certainly look much nicer than the one I had.

I will say the one I had (2013) had a very nice leather interior and sunroof, but I am a sucker for simple interiors personally.
