This is good-news to Hyundai customers (will increase value of their car at
trade/sale time) and for me. (Yipes, an evil car salesman who sells the
Hyundai line in the Sacramento, CA area is lurking here! Oh the
horror! :-))
People are getting 'educated.' They can get the same or better quality from
Hyundai without paying Toyota/Honda prices. That is NOT to imply that
either Toyota or Honda are 'bad' autos. They are excellent. Competition is
good. But there is now a third choice out there for consumers, one that
usually will give more car for their dollar.

While I've been quite pleased with the assembly quality of my Sonata, it
certainly isn't in the same league yet as Toyota. However, I think
Hyundai's bribes are much better than Toyota's. I suspect Hyundai will
be a match for Toyota in a few more years, but I don't believe this
survey is accurate today. I think Hyundai is intentionally skewing the
numbers, but this is nothing new for Koreans. Their sense of ethics
isn't the same as ours or Japan's. That is well known.

the japanese have been far from ethically superior.(rape of Nanking, Korean
comfort girls come to mind) Autowise, how is the sonata leagues inferior to,
say, a camry? I will say time will tell, and initial quality isn't
everything......ps, I like to top post, and am going to stop apologizing for

the japanese have been far from ethically superior.(rape of Nanking, Korean
comfort girls come to mind) Autowise, how is the sonata leagues inferior to,
say, a camry? I will say time will tell, and initial quality isn't
everything......ps, I like to top post, and am going to stop apologizing for
it!

No, not at all. Hyundai's gains in product quality have been
impressive. I just think that the current rating is too much due to
bribery and not enough due (yet) to underlying product quality. I have
no doubt that Hyundai will get there, but I don't think they are there
yet. I'd place them in the top 10 probably, but they aren't ahead of
Toyota by any stretch of the imagination.
