damn right. haha. good choice ;) shuts all the haters up ~

*clap* Hyundai has come a long way. I hope they take the success of their Genesis to heart and move forward with their own luxury brand name. The only advice I would have is to look out for the emerging eco-friendly and high mpg luxury market. The Mercedes Diesel Bluetec Hybrid and the Lexus Atkinson Cycle Hybrid will be the toughest competitors to Hyundai luxury in todays changing environment.

Car of the year is....HUNDIE GENESIS.

Still, no one can agree on a way to say Hyundai. I'm pretty sure it's HYUNday, with a very slight emphasis on the first Y.

You're one of a few that is opened-minded about the prospect of the Hyundai brand and the Hyundai community will certainly welcome you. Hyundai went a long way, they will continue to roll up for the future. We can't ignore them. We know that there are still a lot of haters that talked smack about Hyundai and look at those fools now;...still blinded by the truth by staying under the shadow with duck tapes in their mouths now. To those haters: Hyundai cheap and slow?...wake up & think again.
