The 370z was my first Nissan in the family and everyone thought I was nuts buying a Nissan. Point is no one manufacturer is perfect, it's how they responds to the problems is what matters most. People will have their opinions and biases and that's fine. Be glad we have other options to play with.

Well said!! :tup:

IMO I have a valid argument that my 2014 3.8 is no worse (mechanically) than the 2013 370 I had. I could honestly switch that statement around as well. And thats why I give Hyundai credit. No, its not quite as fast, quick, sharp as a 370. But its not that far off of it either for many thousands less with WAY better tech available. So Hyundai, keep bringing it...up the ante, and fight the good fight. So excited to see what Nissan brings to the table for their next gen Z. For me its just good fun all the way around.

If Honda was bringing a mid engined hatch. Nothing would be said except,breakthrough design and wow... affordable mid engine. Will it be NSX inspired?

Truth is.... nobody has had any kinda fvckin guts in the sub premium market except Chevy & Hyundai.

While the Japanese are trying to reinvent the wheel with a "sport cvt" like the confusingly bad auto Subaru wrx cvt. Hyundai Kia is giving you Sport autos and DCT transmissions. On economy cars. Hyundai isn't quite their yet. But every year that passes, I see the mission. And while Japan says hey,look CVT is kool if you give it a try and try to convince you of such with the mind control of advertising. The Koreans are saying. The people want DCT and torque converters. Do it! The people want manual transmission. Do it!! The people want tech!! Do it!! That's what a company should do. Not use NWO mind control to make you want something you don't want.

I'm looking forward to Hyundai's next gen cars. If they make a better car? I'd buy it. There G80 is crazy for the money.

Live in the now man!!! Lol
