Replying to: alexstore (Jun 21, 2007 5:20 am) The only difference in your part is that you couldn't wait to rub it in to all Azera owners! Your remark proves it! It boggles my mind what some peoples agenda are! How truly sad!  FYI. My buddy has a Maxima and I have an Azera. You see we truly BOTH enjoy our cars and truly both respect each others decision in our purchases. No-one rubs anyones face in. Regards,

Replying to: tjc78 (Jun 20, 2007 3:13 pm) Really? Had not read anything about this, what are the specs if you know, wonder if they are going to use the direct injected FSE variant and my big question WHY? The car is already the quickest (and most economical) in its category! IMO, if they do use the FSE at something like the 300hp+ they get in the IS, it may be too much for a FWD layout. One of the things that I appreciate most about my current Avalon is that it doesn't display any of that torque steer common to many higher HP FWD sedans

Replying to: alexstore (Jun 21, 2007 5:20 am) What magazine were you reading that said the Veracruz build quality matched it's low price??? Every article I've read on the Veracruz has given it very good marks in build quality. I know because it was on our list when we looked for a CUV to buy. We ended up getting the Saturn Outlook...anyway. The Veracruz costs close to $40K fully loaded, that makes it the most expensive Hyundai to date and price-wise...runs with most of the other cross-over vehicles out there. I'm beginning to believe that you're just a Hyundai hater. MSN Veracruz Article Autobytel Verazruz blurb Car & Driver Veracruz Article Motor Trend Veracruz Article You would only like driving a Maxima if you like the hard sport tuned suspension it has to offer. For the younger crowd that likes to zoom and zip along, it's perfect. For the sedate, mature crowd...a nice highway cruiser fits the bill...and the Azera accomplishes that goal competently. |

Replying to: alexstore (Jun 21, 2007 5:20 am) Hyundai Lambda eninges can be tuned upwards of 300hp+ - FYI. The emphasis was more on fuel economy than horsepowers. Also, the 3.7 on the G37 is not moving over to Nissan Maxima anytime soon, at least not to my knowledge. |

Replying to: sergio19 (Jun 21, 2007 5:51 am) The article I am referring to is about Santa fe comparison with murano and highlander. Now allmet. Mature people are buying BMWs exactly for it. To enjoy their ride. I have 1994 Buick as my second car But its not as much fun to drive as Maxima. Plus since I drive over 100 miles daily I needed reliable car and maxima proved to be one. So far with over 40k miles not a single glitch. |

Replying to: alexstore (Jun 21, 2007 8:01 am) Care to link us the article? AFAIK, almost every review/comparison has given high overall grade to the Santa Fe vs. the competition. |
