I used to think "No one shopping for for a BMW would buy a Hyundai" Until a family member told me about their neighbor who sold his new S-Type and bought a Kia Amanti because he thought it was just as good and cut his payments in half. Perhaps only a 60 year old man can understand the logic where an Amanti is just as good as an S-Type but it indeed does happen.
I think these details are a little sketchy though. I suspect we'll see both a sports car and a sport sedan from Hyundai tho.
That way they will have cars to compete with virtually every class leader available in North America except for full size truck and SUV which they certainly could do.
I have to admit I'm something of a brand snob. Heck I'm even a factory snob sometimes. But I have to say the new Sonata is a very good looking car. Here I go... I know I'll regret this but "It's the best looking car in it's class." With that 235hp V6 it's no slouch either. But it doesn't just go that far it has massive breaks and beautiful rims. It even has mature European inspired lighting and an acceptable interior.
