Since it'll be a while before I will ever need to decide which 100K car I want, I just hope to see as many companies making cars as possible.
perceptions change over time, and right now Korean car makers seem to have all the momentum. I'll never own a 100k car, but it's cool that there's finally going to be a Korean halo car. Hyundai also has a flagship model (Equus), a proper sporty coupe (GenCoupe), and they're receiving high marks for their fuel efficient engines in the Accent and Sonata. Plus, that warranty is terrific.

But if I were buying a 100k car, I might go British.
