Replying to: alexstore (Nov 07, 2007 7:04 am) Anyway...what exactly do you mean by "status"??? Are you aware that the Avalon isn't even the best vehicle that Toyota makes? The FJ Cruiser has taken that distinction as the Toyota vehicle with the least amount of problems. |

Replying to: allmet33 (Nov 07, 2007 5:50 am) The Azera 1/4 mile and 0-60 are each about 1/2 sec behind the V-8 Charger; in the stoplight Grand Prix, whoever leaves first will not be caught without going into illegal speeds.

Replying to: cobrazera (Nov 07, 2007 9:16 am) It's sad that it takes an American V-8 to contend with a Korean V-6. However, from an equipment standpoint...the two are not equal. This discussion didn't start out intially as a performance issue, rather a value issue and to get a good comparison between them...you need to build them up the same, that means V-6 for V-6, even if they don't perform the same.

Replying to: vic10 (Nov 07, 2007 11:21 am) There's a lot of folks that went into buying and Azera with one eye open. Sure, they knew of Hyundai's past, but they couldn't deny the appeal the car had. Then, when one tiny, miniscule issue comes up...they want to bash the car and make it seem like it was the worst decision they ever made in their life. The same can happen for ANY make and model of car. Case in point, I was filling up one day at a local gas station and a guy filling up is Cadillac SRX was inquiring as to what I thought of my Azera. After telling him how long I've had it, how many miles it had and the lack of problems I had with it, he proceeded to tell me that his Caddy had 55K miles on it and had been giving him problems. Honestly, it's not really the vehicle it's self that's the real problem. The problem is the customer service that is lacking at so many dealership service departments. Sadly, it seems that is Hyundai's glaring black eye. I mean, if an owner pops up with a problem and they seem to fix it in an expeditious manner, I bet you...the owner would have little to say about the problem at all. However, Hyundai's lackadasical approach to dealing with owner issues only intesifies the problems because the owners anger only snowballs until he/she is mad at the world. Then as soon as someone says something negative about the car, they are quick to jump in and literally dump on it themselves. Then you have the folks that get on here and bash a Hyundai product without ever setting foot (or butt in this case) in one to take it for a test drive. They are basing all their comments on the knowledge they have of Hyundai's past products. A guy that works with me was that very way, until he rode in my Azera. His opinion quickly changed and he doesn't think so lowly of Hyundai as he once did. Sure, he's still going to be skeptical, but...not shut off to the idea that Hyundai can actually make a good product. |

Alexstore...that must be YOUR rating there. Funny...nobody else seems to think it's worth talking about! LOL Whoever it was...the Maxima is no longer king, it's more like the prince in the Nissan line-up. The Altima has replaced it on the throne...for now! I will say this much...that Altima coupe is one stylish ride.
