Hyundai...
when you hear Hyundai...you think of weak, slow, ugly, cheap, etc...
but that's in the 80's to 90's...when Hyundai revealed 2003 Sonata, I think Hyundai made a change...looks more modern, safer and look aggressive and there's Hyundai's fav. Tiburon...from 2003-2005 Tiburon got bolder, faster, and sexier than 1st and 2nd generation...when 2007 Tiburon came out...it showed whole new facelift w/ bigger wheels, hids, and racing pedals...
Hyundai also got luxury taste like Lexus, BMW, and Mercede's...Hyundai Azera was voted to have bigger room than those 3 luxury cars, more speaker sounds than Toyota Avalon and BMW 7-series..
Hyundai also got their very first family van called "Entourage" against the rival of Honda oddyssey, Toyota Sienna, Grand Caravan
Plus w/ 3 SUV (Santa Fe,Tuscon and Veracruz)
these are few Hyundai's i mentioned...there are Accent and Elentra)

When You Purchase HYUNDAi, you might get the same feeling inside and out as BMW, MERCEDES and Lexus w/ much much cheaper price.


Hyundai is about to unleash a brand new sedan called "Genesis" w/ 300+hp...20" tires...

 

my hyundai is broke! yay!

 

ive had three hyundai and never really had major problems with them. The only thing ive found is that the trannies are pretty weak. But other than that theve run pretty well engine wise. Id say for reliability they are starting to be even with honda. However, toyota i think still rules reliability for DD cars

 

There are reasons i'm buying a Tiburon when I get back to Louisiana.
Toyota's are great, but since working in a Toyota dealership, I can say they are just as great as people say. Its hard to get them to break.

 

Something to look at:

i don't have a problem w/ hyundai's. i wanted an old school Tibby for a good while back in the day. i wish they would release a decently powered car though (forced induction). mabey a special GT model for the tibby that's turbo'd... that would be nice.

 

arent hondas pretty reliable? cuz my moms is a 01 and she has 365000 miles on it. only thing wrong with it is the shocks went out and she replaced the transmission once. id think thats pretty good seeing that she doesnt really keep up on regular maintinence

 

Theyre reliable. To my understanding they are one of the MOST reliable.... Not to mention, they use a fair amount of our beloved Mitsu's parts and engines.

 

hyundai did use mitsu parts....

 

Oh they still GET parts from Mitsu. Just not motors and blocks.
