LA 2009: 2011 Hyundai Sonata debuts with style, four-cylinder only and less weight {Autoblog}
Dec 2nd 2009 3:33PM @Tim,
I think it has more to do with the fact that Hyundais are cheap. The major selling point for ALL of Hyundai's cars are "It's just as nice as a Civic, but cheaper!" Of course, the fact that the quality of the cars is coming close to and exceeding that of Toyota/Honda is the reason why their market share was going up while everyone else who isn't Subaru was going down.
The Genesis is only really proving that rich people don't say "It's just like a Lexus, but cheaper!"

Dec 2nd 2009 2:39PM This car is going to be huge. The 4-door Coupe style is all the rage and Direct Injection will be a big selling point.
And for once, it doesn't look at all like a preview generation Accord.
LA Preview: 2011 Ford Mustang V6 makes 305 HP, gets 30 MPG {Autoblog}
Dec 1st 2009 11:59AM In terms of handling and racing refinement, the Mustang is a AA baseball team and a Porsche is a perennial MLB contender. Not to mention the interior quality is leagues apart.
Engine compared to engine, the Porsche is more powerful and more efficient. But that's besides the point.

Nov 30th 2009 11:38PM So what? The Porsche Cayman S makes 365 hp and gets 29 mpg.
The V6 Mustang is a poser-mobile, and Ford should really make a Turbo 4-Cyl variant that has an emphasis on economy over all-out power. Why do high school cheerleaders need 300+ hp?
REPORT: Utah DoT admits higher speed limits has worked out to less speeding {Autoblog}
Oct 27th 2009 4:03PM Man, fuel economy must be brutal in Utah. 85 mph reduces my car from 33 mpg highway down to like 24. But I'm pretty sure I'd do 90 too on some of those horribly boring roads.
Toyota Prius gets visual makeover from Tommi Kaira {Autoblog}
Sep 29th 2009 5:42PM Alright, I take it back. It's a HOMAGE to the long-standing Toyota tradition of making stupid body kits for &*() cars. Just because I'm "wrong" doesn't mean the Corolla S isn't garbage.

Sep 29th 2009 1:44PM Um, no it doesn't. I know Tommy Kaira is a tuner company, I'm just saying this looks like a Prius S would if they had made one. Lay off the haterade.

Sep 29th 2009 11:33AM Yaris S, Corolla S, and now Prius S. Continuing the longstanding Toyota tradition of cheap clip-on body work on boring, budget cars. I love the quad-exhaust, though. Must sound like someone is passing gas in a bathtub at full-throttle.
Not SHO-wy Enough? Ford reportedly working on tweaks to better distinguish range-topping Taurus {Autoblog}
Sep 22nd 2009 11:34AM You mean all the high school and college kids who went out and bought a 10-15 year old SHO because they were 5 when it actually came out can't afford a $40k Taurus, and that performance enthusiasts who have $40k to blow on a performance-oriented ride don't want to...well...pay $40k for a jacked up family sedan that sits like a crossover?
Mazda MX-5 Superlight leaked ahead of Frankfurt {Autoblog}
Sep 11th 2009 2:50PM Lotus did this, except their car has a windshield, is twice as fast 0-60, and weighs 300 lbs. less while still having more creature comforts, such as a roof. It's called the Elise. You may have heard of it. It's not even a concept.
