We just purchased an 09 Santa Fe yesterday. Got an awesome deal. It is a very quality car so far and my wife is hooked on XM after 1 day of having it (30 days free).

all ready ordered Nerf/running boards for. Sure beat paying 500 dollars at the dealership for them.

We tried a Tucson with the v4 and it was terrible. Out of all the Hyundai's we tried, it was by FAR the worst. SOOO under powered. the v6 one wasn't bad but there were impossible to find and we got a better deal on the Santa Fe and there was no way would could have gotten an 09 Tucson for the price that we got.

Hyundai as come a LONG way.

Hyundai (Kia) seem to be on a roll while most of the Japanese manufacturers are stagnant, esp. Honda and Toyota.

I just got back from Seoul (had meeting @ Hyundai hq), and spotted several of their new Equus luxury sedans there. I guess this is the one that's coming to the US in 2010 to compete w/ MB S-Class & Lexus LS, etc. Caught a pic, below.....even though it def. takes some cues (okay, *copies*) those cars, it does have a definite presence of its own. Shape makes it look smaller than it is. Didn't get a peek inside, but it will be interesting to see how it stacks up w/ the big saloons of the competition.

Good that there are becoming more options for us to go through rather that just a few brands here and there.

hyundai is really impressing me; they really have done well for themselves are are beginning to come into their own. they are, however, becoming more of a toyota than a honda. still, i'd actually buy a hyundai car now
