I notice something about Hyundai. If there car seems like it costs more than a competitor it's because they are offering more. I remember when Hyundai came out with the 3.8 base model for $25,000 a lot of people felt it was overpriced vs a Mustang V6. But when you actually did some investigating you find out why.


IRS suspension vs LRA
Cloth seats vs Leather seats
Driveshaft that can't go past 115 mph vs a driveshaft that can go to 160+ mph
Automatic CC vs Manual CC
Fog lights vs None
5y/60k Warranty vs 10y/100k Warranty

It isn't like will Hyundai will offer less for more. That is the one reason I respect there business practices but I am still not impressed with the sporting nature of most other Hyundai's.
