Hyundai has a new car coming out in 2008 that is supposed to be in the same league as the GS series Lexus and the G or M series Infiniti. A V-8, 6 speed auto, rear wheel drive luxury sports sedan.

I know they had problems early on, but I'm wondering if those of you with NEWER Hyundai's would share your experience?
I'm considering buying a Hyundai and I REALLY like this new concept sports sedan, the Hyundai Concept Genesis. It's supposed to for around $30,000 . .
If you own a NEWER Hyundai (any model newer than say 2002 or 2003), my question for you is:
Would you buy another Hyundai?
Why? Is it the price?, the value for the money? the quality?Any problems NOT resolved by the dealer?
If you WOULDN'T buy another Hyundai:
why not? is it the dealer service? just a crappy car? What year is yours, and what model

I have a 2006 Hyundai Azera Limited with the Ultimate Package, I paid $25300 prior to tax/tags. I absolutely love my car and would definitely buy another Hyundai. The salemen at the dealership were very friendly and didn't waste my time. I haven't had any problems with the car at all and it is a true bargin, a car with these features and quality should cost $35K...sticker was $31K though.
The Genesis looks gorgeous and I can't believe anyone would buy and S430 or 750i over this car once it arrives in 2008. The Genesis with V8 and all the amazing options will likely sticker around $43K...almost $30K below its German competitors. That's also about $10K less then the Acura RL, Infiniti M45 and Lexus GS430 that it will be in line with.

Last year I worked 6 months in the USA. After several months of renting Accents and Tauruses, the rental company gave me a Hyundai Sonata (as a reward) with all the options (V6, leather, power moon roof, fog lights, thermal seats, etc.) I drove it for almost three months and couldn't be happier. Smooth ride, good on gas, excellent braking, safe. I was amazed. That made me put Hyundai on my list, and I'm looking forward to get an Azera soon this year. Or I could wait to get one of these. I'm a suscriptor of Motor Trend and have read an article about the Genesis concept. Would love if they make it real and would really consider getting one. Check the link below for a video on the unveiling of the concept.

Winding Road Magazine did an article on Concept Genesis as their feature article called "Hell Freezes Over" in their latest issue (Issue 21). Though I have not personally owned a Hyundai, my mother owned one back in the early nineties where the tires came off while she was driving. This, of course, was before Hyundai significantly improved the quality of their vehicles and offered the 100,000 mile warranty. My mom has written off Hyundai because of her negative experience, but I am convinced that Hyundai has turned over a new leaf with quality and attractive looking models. Even my mom couldn't believe when we first saw a new Sonata that it was a Hyundai because it looked so luxurious. I think Hyundai has a bright future ahead of it. According to the Winding Road article, Hyundai was even thinking of making a separate luxury brand but were hesitant because of the cost involved of doing that (needing to pump energy and resources to "feed" the brand, i.e., advertising, research and development, and all those things involved in making a successful car company). Given that my mother would never forgive Hyundai, and also of her strong faith in Toyotas and Hondas, I unfortunately would not buy a Hyundai for my next car, though I do think Hyundai has made significant strides in the overall quality of their cars. Right now I drive a 96 Honda Accord with over 150,000 miles. I really like driving it, and if I were to get a new car I just might have to stick with Honda or Toyota just because the quality I've enjoyed. My mom's 91 Toyota Camry lasted 14 years (with a rebuilt engine for the last 4) before it gave up the ghost. In conclusion, I'd say read the article on Winding Road (its a free subscription) and come up with your own conclusions.

The new Hyundais are the most under-rated cars on the market. I drive an '06 Sonata and my wife has an 07 Santa Fe, both are smooth-driving with good fuel mileage and they have the longest warranty on the market.

vehicle companies use theory autos to gauge client reaction, exhibit new technologies, and income exposure. some examples of theory autos that made production on some ingredient, The Plymouth Prowler, Chevy SSR, and stay away from Viper. in spite of the fact that they not commonly make it to production without some transformations or loss of valuable factors.
