Totally agree with you on that…but it would suck because than I would have to sell my s13. ---

Hyundai is advertising this as the least expensive 300hp RWD sports car around… So even though the image competitor may be a g35/g37, its meant to be inexpensive like the 240s were when they came out… in any case, i will give my update on tuesday after my training… hopefully with the pricing, or at least an idea of it ---

Hyundais are a great bang for the buck…but you get what you pay for. I still don’t trust them. Nice looking car, I guess we will just have to wait and see how it goes. We will know after the first year if it’s good or not. I would never buy a new model the first year it comes out, you should always wait for second year, that way they work out most the bugs it had the first year. ---

could you just imagine the aftermarket following this would get? especially if it is priced around the $20,000 mark? a lot of younger people (including me) would get one, and them being the first to go in that direction, i think they would have decent sales figures. just my 2 cents. ---

And cheap. Plus most of their other cars are MacPhearson, so the conversion is probably easy/super cheap. But yeah, it works, so why bother developing a double a arm, or alternate system. Besides, MacPhearson does offer some advantages over a double a arm setup, particularly of note, steering angle. ---
