Ans, yes, I was once afraid of Hyundai products myself, and would not recommend them to others. It took a long time to change my mind, too....but their clearly improved quality did it.

I'm agree that old habits, and old impressions, are hard to break. Believe it or not, I once thought that AWD was a waste of money, weight, and fuel. Now I'm sold on it.....especially the Subaru way with the boxer engine and the symmetrical AWD layout.

i was like you 1sick. i drove 1996 Sonata when i was in high school in mid 90's. it really was not a bad car, but it was very embarrassing because my buddies drove 3series, prelude, teg, a4, and etc. i was that kid who drove the junk called hyundai.
i promised myself that i would never ever drive a hyundai ever again. but 12 years later, i'm 100% sold. i own 2 hyundais and most likely my next car will be hyundai again. sonata turbo or genesic coupe. not sure yet.
but i guess it will take years for you to even thinking about buying one because hyundai doesn't have a luxury brand yet.

As far as engine and block strength goes, many Subie engines go 150-200K miles without any problems, although the widespread head-gasket problem on some of the older N/A 2.5L fours is well-known.

I wish Hyundai the best and again, I think they are doing a great job. Hell will freeze over before I give them my money again .

No. Ford's own specs give the new 5.0 412 HP and 390 ft-lbs. of torque. That compares with 425 HP and 420 ft-lbs. in Dodge's much larger 6.1L SRT Hemi.

2. History of small sport coupes is not good, they usually start off with fairly strong sales and the sales quickly fade as the car goes out of fashion.
3. Toyota will have its new sport coupe soon enough to compete with more than just the Genesis coupe.

Does the tC, though "put Hyundai in its place"?

The Genesis sedan sales are actually decent (not that far off from the monthly sales of the new M thus far; but the coupe has been a flop (needs more power and a revised grill).
The Tib was getting long in the tooth and Hyundai smartly decided to drop it while getting the new Tib replacement ready.
