because by almost every measure out there, the Hyundai's are more reliable than nissan's across the entire brand.

Sure thye may not hold their value, but that is also based alot of people thinking of their name. Aka people who still think Hyundai is the same company as 20 years ago.

The problem with saying you would never consider them is the type of thinking and attitude that has pretty much ruined companies in this country and taken the economy down with it. Unwillingness to change, consider, reconsider and think outside your normal comfort "box" is not good for any person, company, industry, etc.

Now all the random junky comments aside.

truthfully, if i were to consider a hyundai super car (hypotheticaly given i had the money), it would have to outperform the other cars. Being that its Hyundai's start in the supercar area. It would have to be better. Its the same thing with Hyundai's cars now. The reason their brand is growing so fast is that they are generally better than their competitors in the market segment (someone is gonna throw, the gen coupe isnt better than the 370z, but they arent the same market segment, and the Gen Coupe isnt the car they are trying to use to build their name. Sonata, Elantra, Genesis sedan)

If the new sonata, had lower MPG, had a smaller interior and trunk, cost more etc i wouldnt have looked at it over a Camry, Altima, etc.

So yeah if Hyundai releases a supercar that is better than or exactly equal to other supercars that cost the same or more, and you dont throw consideration at it, then your really not trying to buy a supercar, your really out just trying to buy a brand name. (of course if it looks like the backside of a Donkey, i wouldnt consider it either)
