Lack of sales? Hyundai Canada intentionally made it that way by producing only 500 of the SR model anyway. :blink: You mean to tell me they couldn't find 500 buyers for the SR?


Oh well, life goes on. Doesn't really bother me too much since we never had that model available here anyway. :460:

i think they might still make the kit think about if they actually sold all 500 and 200 was crash need repaired if no parts that means they would be like SE Hyundai is not going to do that would they

they discontinues the sr specific parts like the lip kit and anything else unique to that car other them performance.

they didnt discontinue the car per say because there was only a limited supply for them in canada. it was the only place in the world i beleive that sold it which, is incredibly stupid to limit a car like that to one region but iunno for sure if thats what they did.

but if that is the case then people who trash their sr's still have to have replacement parts availible until their warranty expires. so hyundai still makes them but they are probly only for factory sr only.

LOL stopped makeing the car, lol. There were only 500 made in 2007. I called my dealership, the kit is avialbe but only if your an SR owner. They had an extra 500 of the body kits created for repair and replacement of current SR's. It's about $2300.00 painted and done if not covered under warrenty, so yah I wouldn't look at buying the SR kit. Get one of the other kits out there. KFXperformance has a front end coming out and Onderground.com has a complete body kit as well. HMA has the lip kit aviable for much less, they just don't have the wheel wells.

hyundai was on crack to sell the SR for a ~$3400 or so premium over the sport model... that makes the SR, with tax, about $25k out the door. ridiculous, imo.

It was 26K for me... And Hyundai Canada told me they only ended up making 400 SRs in 2007. They made 200 Autos and 200 manuals. They should have made 50 autos and 350 manuals. My SR was the last available manual in the GTA.
