Love the car, but been looking for a replacement....

2 doors, RWD, manual tranny, 0-60 in 5 sec or less, not a hatch......

Not much out there that is affordable..

How has yours treated you? I have a couple gen buddies that swear the bk1 platform is miles ahead in terms of reliability compared to bk2, they claim the GDI series engine is inconsistent.

My BK1 four pot has 133k miles on it and still runs like new. Most reliable car that I have every owned. My wife has her eyes on it to trade it with her Elantra for something higher off the ground. We shall see. I love my Veloster N, but the Gen Coupe is still a nice ride.

2012 Bk1 3.8 auto grand touring here with 116k miles . Lots of bolt on mods and a super long list. I’ve been running an alphaspeed tune for a year now and still running strong and only technically replaced some coolant hoses on passenger side and throttle body and o2 sensors ( 80k miles). Been running strong and had no issues other than my weird idle when the car is running hot. Wondering where I should post my oil reports..

I’m kind of new to sharing photos on here so forgive me for the size of photos and the layout. Anyways I am really glad blackstone labs was a good place to choose. Can’t think this forum enough.

I am just about touching 133k miles. Still runs like a top.

212k miles and going strong!!!

2013 3.8 Track...

Ran GDI intake cleaner thru it, changed oil, diff and tranny fluid yesterday....

Repainted the mirrors, door handles and antenna last week... all had the clear coat peeling off.

Good. You’d be surprised how many gen owners I know locally who can’t do such simple cleaning. Then ask me why they blew up at 80k miles.

185k miles BK1 5at 300whp. It’s running great. Just swapped the dif from 3.909 no LSD to 3.538 with the LSD for smoother cruising. +2 mpg

Up to 222k miles, '13 3.8 Track.... still running like a charm.

Nice guys. I'm at 129k.
313rwhp 8 speed. I get better mileage after my mods. Highway going from North East,MD to South Philly (around 1 hrs 20 mins) I get 31 mpg. 3.8L I check with math not the gauge. Around town I'm getting 21.3 mpg. Less now since it's winter and they add crap to the gas for emissions. If you are getting bad mileage get some seafoam or equivalent and spray into the hot engine. Trust me...your mileage will go up.
When I got the car I got 27.1 mpg on the trip from the dealer (1hr away) and was getting 19 around town. After seafoam it went up, and after mods up again.
Above was my best mpg.
I realistically get 27-28 mpg consistently hwy, and just over 20 in mixed city.

Runs strong and never had a problem. No facts that GDI is less reliable. That's what people say who dont have one. GDI is more efficient, thus the better mpg and higher hp/tq. Gdi isn't new, its been around forever.

For the first 170k miles, got 24.2 mpg.....

Not too bad in my book for the fun the car is.

'13 Grand Touring 3.8 at 137k miles and purring! She has given me zero issues outside of a $40 solenoid on the AC compressor. I walnut blast every 20k and GDI cleaner every 10k before oil change. I hope to see 250k on this engine, a few people in here give me hope when I see those high mileage coupes!
