03Sleeper's photo gallery 		But its not...I'm telling you eventually Hyundai will get it right. When you mix parts from BMW, Infiniti, Lexus, Chrysler, and Benz, you're bound to either have a car that blows everything out of the water or blows the company to bits.

"....first V8....producing over 300 HP....propels 0-60 in less than 6 seconds...Paddle-shift manumatic control will be standard on the production version." That's pretty sweet.

19Accord97's photo gallery 		Well I think Dodge is going in a good direction...their cars seem to be diff. then most others.  I may be biased to Dodge but oh well.  I also agree that the cars are looking to much alike...its to bland.

03Sleeper's photo gallery 		Auto-makers are somewhat of what Arnold calls: "girly-men". They stick to one design that works and basically play around with it. Increase the width of the taillight here, lower the car .5" there, etc.

On the flip side, no one wants to be stuck in the boat with a revolutinary design that is just too radical or everyone dislikes.

Thus, we're in a stagant pool of design.

*prays that 08 Accord will NOT share anything from the Civic*

95k's photo gallery 		I bet if you checked the reycle bin outside of amany of the Hyundai factories, there's probably Toyota emblems from the front of cars as well as Honda's and Jaguar's and the instruction manuals or user manuals from all those cars, as well. But speaking of the Toyota Camry, I'm not a big fan of it. I think it was decent to begin with but now it's just too bulky.

03Sleeper's photo gallery 		Yeah...I have a feeling the Avalon is going to be phased out...and the Camry will replace it. There's gonna be another small car to slot under the Corolla...so everything moves up. Basically, the Camry will compete with the Maxima...once again.

We've had two of them in the driveway, a 98 Elantra and a 00 Sonata.  Both were very reliable cars, great price/feature ratio, and we were very happy with them.

I would say that I will more than likely buy this new model of Hyundai when it comes out...Here's another thing Hyundai gives you when you buy one of their cars..at the end of your final deal after the price has been set..you tell them that you are a Hyundai Owner and  they give you an additional  $1500.00 off the price for whats called Customer Appreciation , How do I know this? Well WheelBrokerAng also Owns (paid for ) 2 Sonatas already

  Thank You for Reading This
