Ever since president and CEO John Krafcik  told Inside Line the Hyundai Veloster will be coming to a dealer in 2011, fans have been looking for spottings to report. This might be it.

 The forum members where these photos were posted are pretty sure that this is indeed the new sporty Hyundai.

Krafcik said the final production model will be “70-80 percent” like the concept and might appear as a “four-passenger CRX” with good mileage to toot. Power will probably come from a 2.0-liter version of Hyundai’s new Theta II GDI (Gas Direct Injection) engine, though we doubt it will make 198 horses. Fun, practical, and cheap. Sounds a lot like Honda’s upcoming CR-Z.
