JMO, but watch for yourself and draw your own conclusions:





Anyway, the Japanese aren't the real threat right now, it's the Koreans. Both Hyundai and Kia are on a roll.






*just want to add. Look at the EPA fuel economy ratings compared to what these cars achieved in this test.

someone on here would tell you there the same smh.... but I do like the hyundais styling more.
