Not to be contrary, but what the heck do ships and cranes have to do with quality passenger vehicles? :confused: Granted, Hyundai is at the top of the JD Powers list, but I don't think that has anything to do with their ship and crane manufacturing.

Their styling department has been working overtime for a few years though.

They have to keep working, in my opinion. They're still followers of dying trends, and have yet to define a recognizable style for themselves, besides "blah." The Tiburon is a step in the right direction.

Tankers and container ships as well as gantry cranes require a lot more engineering and manufacturing (cap)ability than a car does. The cars seem to be a "side business" more than anything else.

Not the first time we've seen this design, but it's plenty compelling. These guys get better every year. Make this, rear drive, 8 cyl or better, snortin' 6... with a proper 6 speed (sourced from Honda of cource) and I'm in. Better still...loose the back doors.

I think this new santa fe is rather nice looking.

Jeepster???

I don't have a picture but saw the "jeepster" concept at 2004 auto show. I fell in love. Also a point of interest is the suzuki "dune" which was in the 2005 show. it can be seen on the susuki web site. very sharp resembles a proton vx on crack!

Tib always looks like it belongs in a future set, Sylvester Stallone movie. I wanna like these guys...look at their learning curve. Check back in ten... no...five years.
