johnbuzzed Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 We have an '08 Sonata with 90+ K miles. I've changed the oil, wipers, battery, tires; you know, minor stuff. The dealer changed a PS pulley under warranty while I had the car in for an oil change- I didn't even complain about it. The car is still quiet, it runs great, everything works; the only thing that broke is the cupholder in the console. We're very satisfied with the car and we would certainly buy another Hyundai. Back on LI, there were at least 7 Hyundais on one block (of twenty houses) in my neighborhood; one neighbor would buy nothing else and they still have two now. And a quick glance at a recent ... Car and Driver (IIRC) shows a 2013 Sonata 2.0 Turbo four cylinder test drive; the 1/4 mile time is in the low 14s. That's real close to '70's Hemi territory. Not too shabby. I'm not saying that all Hyundais are perfect cars nor am I saying that ours is but there was a time when I wouldn't even consider owning one... how things can change.

ValvEasy Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Perhaps a Korean model manufacturer will take it on. The Japanese would never do a kit of Korean car! Bit of a cultural dislike. Understatement of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
