...no point in getting the Kia ...?
 
One reason for getting the Kia Amanti would be if it is $6000 to $10000 lower in price than the Azera. Which is probably about where it will need to be to compete for shoppers looking for a similar sized front wheel drive car. $18000 for an Amanti and $26000 for the Azera after all incentives sounds about right for November and December this year.
Can you say rebates?

Azera = Korean Avalon.
I'll bet Hyundai is most closely targetting the Avalon. Similar size, performance, features, styling... but 20% lower in price.

I have heard everything about a release date from as soon as tomorrow to the end of December. Does any one have anything more reliable? Why is Hyundai being so secretive? I think that they have a potential winner. I was hyped up to get a Kia Amanti until some information about the Azera start to come through on my research. Now I am in hurry up a wait mode. there has been a lot of clatter on blogs and forums. It is amazing how much people down Hyundai based on their reputation from 10 years ago, In spite of their obvious success over the last 3-5 years with the Sante Fe, Elantra, Tiburon, and so forth. What I keep reading is that Hyundai is not a Lexus or a BMW, which is absolutely right. I think that the people at Hyundai are intent on making their own name. I predict in over the next ten years or so that Hyundai or a subsidiary luxury brand will be synonymous with quality and reliability like the Japanese brands.

I've seen pics of the front with three slats in the front grill and some with four. Even at Hyundia's own website two versions appear. Any thoughts?

perhaps they are pics of the korean version and american version? There are quite a few superficial differences between the two versions.

You're probably right. I wonder which version we'll get in the US & Canada. I think I like the four slat version better myself.
By the way, I can't believe the navigation is not going to be available on the Azera. Even the lowly (but nice) Honda Civic has it available for Pete's sake! And how about a convertible of some sort? I know Hyundai & Kia have been very busy with new models and such, but a nice inexpensive convertible from Korea would be really cool!

Azera is not a replica of Avalon in any way or form because the Azera, known as Grandeur in Korea, was originally planned out in 1990. The first root of Grandeur DNA. Its chassis, engine, body, suspension, gears, and every part of Hyundai is mostly developed and researched by the KAIST scientists, engineers, researcher, and more. It will sound very insulting to Koreans if you don't give a clear evidence and the source of your argument.

I guess you must be some sort of a Superman, or someone who thinks he IS special to make comments like this. Where the hell do you come off saying that this car is made for "old and fat man class". I guess if someone who likes this car, is 28 years old, isn't allowed to buy one because they don't fit into your thinking. I'm neither old, or fat, and I really like this car, ALOT. Could you please send me a letter giving me permission to buy the Azera, even if I, and probably plenty of others, don't fit into your groupings....give it a break...putz
