Same. Is the entire auto industry roofline-challenged?

Honda really needs to do some serious seoul searching. It's like they're an entirely different company since around 2004.
Fixed.

my thoughts exactly!!


i doubt this thing will get much attention, hyundai is still battling its poor reputation. The genesis kicked off well, but thats cuz it was a RWD turbo monster, this thing carrys the hyundai name AND is boring. Ill be willing to bet the CRZ will outsell this without a problem, one because of the honda nameplate, and two, because of the "hybrid" badge that alot of people seem to flock to.

good try hyundai, close but no cigar

People aren't flocking to the Honda Insight. Why would they flock to something priced similar if not more, less efficient(MT), and impractical. What poor reputation is Hyundai still battling? I'm guessing you haven't been looking around. You have no idea what you're talking about. The Genesis kicked off because its a RWD turbo monster? Is that a joke? It has a little over 200hp in turbo spec. You made no mention of the all-new Sonata, Genesis Sedan which is breaking class barriers with value and style. Hyundai is doing very well in terms of sales, profits, and perception by the general public.

How do you know it's boring? You drove the new CR-Z which hasn't hit dealers yet and this prototype(which you havent seen completely)?

The Genesis coupe isn't doing very well. The sedan is what is helping Hyundai.

Looks cool! Love the rear end (atleast for the concept). I'd be interested, if it wasn't for the interior...not too big on the dash design, but everything else looks promising. Gonna have to try it out.

I disagree. I see this thing coming out and being tested head to head with the CRZ and the CRZ will get its ass kicked because its a new Honda. This new Kia seems like THE new CRX and what Honda should have done in the first place. I think and feel that Honda is going to get its arse handed to them, AGAIN!

When Kia is kicking your ass in execution, Honda, its time to start firing people!
