have you ever driven one of their cars? they are horrible... things rattle and you can almost feel the cheapness. the only good things is that they are cheap. you dont hear people talking how they wish they had a hyundai.

I have! My daughter's bought two new, and they are both still on the road and keep on ticking.
The '96 Accent, my son bought from my daughter - he ought to have his ass whipped again as he is constantly neglecting the oil changes - oh, yeh, when he hears it clatter from being out of oil he only drives another three-four days before he puts some in and then takes it in for the change & filter. Never had a wrench to any part of the car. Why it runs so good still when he finally treats it to the 12,000 mile service is anybody's guess.
Her '01 Sonata is a jewell. You can feel the heater in really cold weather in about three blocks; (Korean winters are especially bitter, just ask a vet.) by the end of a mile it blasts out the hot air.
35/mpg, plenty zippy, good-looking, doesn't burn a drop of oil, 100,000 mile warranty on the powertrain, 50,000 roadside assistance, A/C that will freeze you out in the hottest summer, again-never had a wrench on it.
Yeah, Korean stuff is CRAP.
Cars Run & Are Posh.
I'm going to buy it from her when she gets ready to sell it. It's as good as anything else on the road.
