It's 'OK'!

I've stated my opinion of Hyundai's on TMS before (based on experiences from my wife's Tiburon). It might look like a great deal but personally, I'd spend my money elsewhere even if the V8 were under $30K.

It doesn't matter to me what their quality is now. That car was the BIGGEST POS I've even seen. I will not shop Hyundais no matter what the price. In fact, the easiest way to p*ss my wife off is to say the word "Hyundai" to her. We sold the car in order to pay off the loan. If it hadn't been paid for, I would have torched it just to get the satisfaction of seeing the b*st*rd burn!

Simply an unrelated, freak occurence? Possibly. But given the track record of the brand and the possibility that, upon closer examination, this appeared to have occured because of a choice by that auto maker to employ the cheapest plastics possible....I'm still a skeptic. The burden is on Hyundai to prove that their cars aren't the heaps they once were, and a few reviews from car mags proclaiming things kosher aren't enough to sway me.

You didn't comprehend my point. It's not about whether it's a luxury V8 sedan under $30K. It's the fact that it's freakin' Hyundai! I'd rather spend my money on a FWD V6 anything rather than buy a super-lux V8 Hyundai at any price.

This will be an interesting car to watch. I remember rumors a while ago of a shorter wheelbase version of this as a Tib. THAT would be one hell of an interesting car.
As for import shopping... someone has to say it... GO MAZDA!

It's just the brand I guess, some people(forum-er/enthusiasts) are just not accepting the brand yet. My friend's KIA sorento was perfectly reliable, and solid. He even drove it from Boston to Seattle.
