I like these myself so i can get the behind and blind spot in the side mirrors
Maybe use a spot mirror on your monitor & let your brain's motion-detection algorithm do it's thing?
That's always worked for me whenever I've been stuck with an exposed 6 o'clock.
Veloster seems to be a really good value. Huyndai is not known for quality problems. If you like the car, it fits your particular needs, and the price is right, I suspect you probably won't do much better.
Something like this will help with the blindspot issue: Custom Accessories 71121 2" Blind Spot Mirror, (Twin Pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BOAX1G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_EmRQAb49ZENPF
You just adhere it directly onto your current mirrors in the far corner. Can probably also find these at a local auto parts store
Edit: hopefully someone who owns a Veloster can chime in with their input on quirks and ownership experience :)
I attached blind spot mirrors to my Nighthawk 750.
I have my regular mirrors set for upright cruising, and I have the blind spot mirrors set for higher highway speeds.
You can buy those little mirrors you place on your mirrors to see blind spots.like these
As someone who has driven on the freeway commute for a long time, I always assume someone is in my blind spot. Always. And just to make sure, I have these on my side mirrors to check before I change lanes: http://www.amazon.com/Custom-Accessories-71121-Blind-Mirror/dp/B000BOAX1G
It's like people who say to look out for motorcyclists. If I drove a motorcycle, I would make damn sure I knew what was going on around me at all times. I understand that sometimes they're at the mercy of the drivers around them, but I'd argue that most of the time motorcyclists wreck because of their own negligence.
None of my blind spots are large enough to lose even a Miata in. It's YOUR responsibility to be aware of your blindspots and be able to tell if there's a car in them. Try these
I highly recommend the proclip phone mount if you don't mind spending a few extra bucks

As to the DDing question - I really really like these blind spot mirrors for this car. I tried a few different options and discarded the crappy or otherwise unsuitable ones, these were the best.
If your car doesn't already have it, I'd also recommend the OEM autodim mirror (with or without homelink depending on your preference). Easy to install yourself if you're so inclined, the wiring is already hiding under the headliner.
>When you drive you look over your fucking shoulder to merge. You look over your fucking shoulder when you reverse into a parking spot.
Boy do I have something for you.. Looking over your shoulder to merge is one of the most dangerous activities you do while driving and is something that can be avoided with a $5 purchase.
Also some people have the luxury of a backup camera which is primarily used for, you guessed it, backing up. No over-the-shoulder looking necessary.
Maybe you should check yourself for assumptions about how you live your life and realize that what you think might be necessary because it may be necessary for you isn't necessary for everyone and doesn't make them somehow worse than you because of it.
I have a '16 and BSM seems to work well, but I'd rather see things with my own eyes anyway. It's possible to eliminate the blind spot with adjustments, but I prefer convex mirrors that give me a wide view with no blind spot. I put a set of these on every car regardless.
I took drivers ed about 7 years ago and was also told this. Makes sense, as it takes your eyes off the road in front of you.
I've found these to be really helpful - http://www.amazon.com/Custom-Accessories-71121-Blind-Mirror/dp/B000BOAX1G/ref=pd_bxgy_e_img_y
These are nice as well
You probably know this, but I'll throw it out there. You can buy little "blind spot mirrors" that stick to your side-view mirrors. You put them in the corner and they show the blind spot because they're convex.

I have blind spot mirrors for my car. They give me absolute confidence when changing lanes, no straining my neck. Every time I change lanes, I glance at the mirrors.
