japanese companies have been copying european car technology for a while, but the difference is they reengineer it and make it better. True innovations are going to be much rarer nowadays

You're kidding right?

If this is a rip off, then the Hummer H2 is a direct copy of the VW New Beetle.

Looks good for the most part, but I hate how close the headlight is to the wheel well.

Again I ask you... What new innovative idea is sufficient to bring Hyundai up to your standards?

I guess they have to build flying cars that can go invisible or cars that can transform into robots before they're innovative enough eh?
Never will a Hyundai be innovating enough for me. I have my brand loyalties and the only ones not included are FORD MOTOR COMPANY, KIA, and HYUNDAI. Every other auto maker im completely fine with.


They could make a flying car with an infinite amount of fuel that would last a hundred years and id STILL not drive it since it has a big goofy H on it.

Right.

This would be what bitkahuna is talking about. The Elitist Premise. Hyundai just isn't quite good enough for you. I get it. Why would you need to be seen in a car with a goofy H on it even though it can fly and have fuel that lasts a hundred years.

Let's talk again in a few years.
