My new (ish) Sonic

[Cliveyboy]

Hi Guys, nice to be with you here...found you by accident because I was looking for info about a problem...but that's later.

I live in Israel and bought my 2014 Sonic RS (Turbo) Automatic 6 gears with 45k (kmtrs) on the clock, about 6 weeks ago. One owner. This model is made in the S.Korea plant but form what I've seen it's identical to the USA made car.

I'd been attracted to this model for some time for one stupid reason only.

In 1964 in the UK, I bought a Triumph Vitesse... a 6 cyl 1600 beauty that was quite revolutionary at the time... It had the same quad headlight as the Sonic.
I loved that car, so much, I even bought a second one (as one does) I've attached a picture. The front was so similar to my Vitesses... I just had to have one!!

The colour is Black, Leather Interior, with MobilEye fitted... a real improvement and replacement for our slow, underpowered 1200cc Spark.
We live in a mountainous region and the hills now are no problem going up in 6th gear rather than 2nd... and the gas consumption turns out to be very similar to the Spark.
Attached also is a shot of my RS.

Welcome, nice looking RS! Can you possibly find a local part number for your mirrors? I love the side markers.

Those side mirrors have repeater LEDs..... I actually need to replace the LEDs on the passenger side... they were knocked off and the side of the car was scratched when I was parked... the cost here is horrendous and I'm trying to find a replacement from the US... so far no luck... anyway I'll see if I can find the part #

US version didn't offer them, only for euro and Asian markets. The Korean one's are easy to find but still spendy
