I personally wouldn't buy any of those, but I do hear that the Daewoo's have engines that are made in the same plant as mercedes... I don't know how true that is, but I'd say they're pretty high quality even though they're Korean built. The Hyundai and the Kias and the Daewoos may be fine automobiles, but they'll have to prove it in the next 10 years. Nissan, Toyota, Honda, Mitsubishi, and Mazda already have a lot of name recognition among their customer bases...
