Hyundai...i just don't trust them yet...Soon maybe, they are improving but for now, no thanks.

I'm less then impressed with the plastic fantastic Tiburon. Never did like it

I'll probably stick to GM for the rest of my life. GM is my dad'* specialty (only been working on em for 25 years ) If I had something foreign me would laugh at me and tell me to fix it myself.

Kia, they were named to be the most unreliable car company!

I'd walk before driving a Kia. The interior looks like you'd cut yourself on it. To me Kia and Hyundai are the same thing, you get what you pay for.
What about a Daewoo?

You guys need some facts to back up your allegations! Some of these SOUTH Korean cars are NOT THAT BAD! All you guys are basing this on is their past. Come on! I would love to own a some of these models they offer. Even Consumer reports recomends two Hyundai models! Turon GT could smoke some of your guys Bonnevilles. Now before you guys go saying that I'm some rebel that hates domestic cars, I still think American made cars are good too. I'm just trying to show you that you shouldn't stereotype!

I don't like Kia. I also don't like Daewoo or Hyndai. Actually, I don't like any Asian cars except the RX-8
