I gotta hand it to Hyundai... They are really stepping up their game and quality in the last few years. I've worked on a few in the body shop recently and was very impressed. Fit and finish was great and nothing felt cheap.

Have you seen a manual transmission Sonata yet? I know they make them but I wonder how the pull off the shifter cup holder configuration.... Ive worked on hundreds of auto ones but no manuals in the new gen..

thats funny considering all of bmws new cars hadve plastic radiator supports, no welds or anything just a bunch of bolts and plastic

crash ratings are for people that EXPECT to be in a crash.

Hey, that just makes changing the parts out that much easier. Plus upgrading could be made modular. Cooling system upgrade kits etc.

or for those who like low cost insurance . the safer the car, the cheaper the price of coverage is!

[wed3k]

never even thought about that.

I drive for a living... I never expect to hit anyone, but with all the dumbasses on the road, it's only a matter of time before one of them hits me!

whats weird is all of my parent's lexi have been rear ended, the silver es300 has been rear ended 3 times which were all very minor. i have never been rear ended in any of my cars because if i did, id be throwing myself on the ground screaming from neck pains.

Safe driving programs and REAL driver education would drop insurance a whole lot more than a safety cell...

I saw a course that cops were being trained in. I was so tempted to just barge in and go around it, but...
