Hate to say it, but if Canada starts its own auto company, the cars will be worst than those Chinese cars. Auto companies learn from their mistakes, and those Chinese auto companies should get it right in the far far far future.

I would think so.
There's no way they can be a crown corporation, the red tape and bureaucratic nightmare would be horribly inefficient.

Having worked in engineering, there is zero error checking here.

And Unions?
Hah, there goes any sort of competitive advantage down the drain.


It's not that we would lack the know-how, it's just that our accepted framework for organizing that know-how is a joke.

I would never drive a hyundai much less any other car built in Korea.
Korea's trying but Japan is still the king in E.Asia. This is surprising since Korean's are known for leading edge technology

What are you talking about? E.Asian = China, Japan, Korea's compared to S.Asians India, Pakistan, Thailand etc..
I was just clarifying for the record.

why would anyone get a korean car when jdm cars cost the same
fully loaded elentra is $21g, no i rather drive a mazda3 /civic
genesis 2.0T fully loaded is $30g, basically the same price as rsx s / Si / csx s /speed 3

if i have to pay for couple grands more, than so be it. Better resale value, been in the industry longer.

they must be high
25g-30g for a 200bhp, RWD sport car is still cheap.
I don't think you can find any 200hp+ RWD sport car for under 35g.
The closest one would be a IS250, but a moderately loaded one would cost 40g+

There are plenty of ppl out there who would pay $10000 less to drive a car that is similar performance & features but with a crappier brand name.

Mugen EvOlutioN 07-21-2010 10:31 AM
i suppose


IS250 isnt even a sports car, its a slow piece of shit. 200hp dragging a heavy ass 1500kg body shell. No whether its RWD/AWD/FWD it dont matter for that car. hell even if it was 2dr it'd still be the same result

i dont know, im starting to dig their new design...but i remain to hold my piece that their price tag is still fucked


except the only two nationalities that i know will buy it regardless...

tat is dirt cheap

orange7 07-21-2010 04:58 PM
well if hyundai did more promoting to its brand and made ppl believe it's a premium brand, then their price tags would be a steal.

however, they still have a long way to go.

threezero 07-21-2010 07:26 PM
^^ the FIFA world cup official sponsorship isn't cheap at all. Hyundai knows where it's weakness is and is working very hard to overcome that.
