Aug 31 '08 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros:

Refinement, comfort, room, ride-handling balance, quietness


Cons:

Generic styling, lack of front passenger seat adjustments, some fit and finish issues


The Bottom Line:

Nearly matches the competition from Germany and Japan in many key areas, and costs much less. Definitely worth a look.


General Motors and Ford have both put on hold, perhaps forever, plans to offer V8-powered rear-wheel-drive sedans fully competitive with the best from Germany and Japan. They're running short on resources, and with gas prices around $4 future demand ...

Pros: Great value; plenty of power; top-notch safety, warranty, and features; best-in-class premium-audio; good looks
Cons: Debut year, aggressive automatic-transmission, ride unrefined on rough surfaces, many minor gripes, Hyundai brand stigma
The Bottom Line: H-logos stripped off, nobody would know or believe this is a Hyundai. It's a powerful, RWD sedan with an unmatched technology package. What a great first lux effort by Hyundai!
