So it's o.k. for you to bash GM cuz it's American but yet when it comes to Hyundai, you can give them the benefit of the doubt?
I'm not saying that Hyundai are the "evil-doers" of car companies but personally, I wouldn't own one because they have a history of bad news and their resale value isn't as good as others.

It looks a lot better, and the price is right, but you get what you pay for. Maybe I'm locked on the old Hyundai image, but I'd have a hard time even thinking about owning one.

So did/does most car companies out there.

Haha, once a close-minded fool, always a close-minded fool? Funny...

I think the evolution happening at Hyundai now is parallel to the evolution that began at Honda in the 70s. They went from being (deservedly) thought of as a crappy little (hippie) car maker to an automotive player by the mid 80s.

BTW, Hyundai owns Kia and, together, they are the 7th in sales in the US (right after Nissan). Worldwide, they sold over 2.5 million cars last year.

No threat to GM yet, though.

Hey, I saw one of these tonight at the local Hyundai dealer. I'm going tomorrow to take a look! It looked very impressive sitting inside the showroom!

Do you guys think Hyundai would offer that good of a warranty if they didn't have some confidence in the quality of their product?

(this is a serious question, not a smart alek remark)...
