Fave Hyundai

What's your favorite Hyundai model? I personally like Sonatas (remind me of a cheap version of Lexus IS series) or Tiburons.

The best car in small car segment is Hyundai Santro and as we move upwards Accent comes into the picture...if we move in higher ones really Sonata is awesome in looks!!

I don't think I've ever seen a Hyundai that I've liked. Although the Genesis Coupe Concept pictured below has a lot of promise. I doubt it will be made, at least looking anything like that.

It'd kick some major ass if they did make the Genesis though. It sounds as if Hyundai is at least semi-serious about making something on a rear-drive platform given their car show presence so far this year.

Hyundais are crap as well as Kia, damn Koreans can't make a single decent car. Although I did like the new Santa Fe when I drove one into the shop

Not a big fan of Hyundai's The Tiburon is a joke.

the Tiburon does have a little aftermarket support but that's all it really has going for itself. A guy I know had a modded Tiburon and it was slow, my neighbor's 3rd Gen. Eclipse GSX beat it by 3 to 5 lengths, I don't recall the exact number. But that Eclipse did get beat by a modded 1980's Camaro Iroc-Z...

I'd never buy one but the Tiburon is a pretty nice looking car!

you shouldn't really judge a car by it's looks.

I never said it was a good car. I said it was A NICE LOOKING car. Also said I'd never buy one before I even said that.

They are coming out with a genesis and they said it will have a 300 hp v6 rwd, to rival the 350z and the g37, its a really nice looking car.

Being a Hyundai probably several grand cheaper too, I'd buy one. The Genesis is the only one I would ever say that about too.
