yea... like uhhh.... idk... maybe, earlier Camaros?


Its one thing to take design cues from previous generations of the same car, and quite another to copy the exterior designs of other companies so closely and obviously


I still cant decide if this is due to a lack of creativity by Hyundai, or just a serious scumbag move.

Clearly you are a perfect representation of my description. You are one of those kids who were picked on constantly so your only form of release is by anonymously posting on a forum and acting like big shot.

Buick sweepspear dates back to the 1940s. Hyundai wasn't even a company yet.

I belong to other car forums and this forum is the worst for talking down about other cars. Hell, the other forums Im on dont even do that. I mentioned Im getting a camaro and not one bad comment. Why is it that when anyone brings up a different ca in the "OTHER CAR!" section, that car is put down as a "stupid import". Come on I know its a camaro message board, but do some of you have to really be that biased? I know everyone has their own opinion and sometimes people (even me) say stupid things sometimes, but this amount is really ridiculous! If you dont like it fine, but dont rant on about s**t trying to justify your point without any source! And stating it stupidly! Im just getting really sick of this. I come on here to get enlightened on cars and all I get is immature crap coming out of some of you guys.

Lol I drive an Acura right now, I just don't think a Hyundai will ever be worth 96k, Hyundai is not considered a high end car manufacturer

Look at my sig...then think about my father's 30 years at GM...

Of course I'm going to be biased. I honestly think the only Asian import worth anything is the Avalon, and that's only because it's everything the Impala should be but isn't. Other than that, there really isn't any other Asian import that appeals to me at all.

You've come across as very hostile to the point of excess. None of the responses have been about Equus performance because it hasn't been tested yet, rather they have been in response to the car's exterior design, which bears an uncanny resemblance to the Buick that we've had pics of for a while now. Given Hyundai's history of "using" design cues from other brands coupled with the fact that we uphold certain standards from 100 thousand dollar automobiles (originality, world-class ability and unique styling), this car demands our approval, and according to this board, isn't getting it. No one here is going to lie and say that they love the look and originality and price of this car. You need to swallow that.
