Maybe Hyundai could snap up Saturn and use it to improve their overall dealer experience. Word is that the division could be sold. And Hyundai could add a 2-seat convertible to the Genesis offerings.

I don't know about that... the new Opel mid-sized sedan looks like a nice piece, maybe for the next-gen Azera (or a smaller Genesis sedan)? The Outlook is quite nice too, for a big SUV, but Hyundai already has the Veracruz. But buying Saturn would be more for the value of its dealer network and service model than the vehicles.

The Outlook is indeed a nice vehicle (got one) we crossed shopped the Veracruz. If the Veracruz had offered captain's chairs in the 2nd row and more room behind the 3rd row seat...we would have had that instead.

I agree--the Saturn dealer network would be a tremendous asset for Hyundai. Then again, some fusion of current Hyundai and Saturn DNA would make for some very interesting cars indeed.

Is the Tau Hyundai's first-ever V8? If so that is an even bigger achievement.
First in-house V8. First V8 of any kind for the North American market.
Hyundai certainly deserves this. The Tau engine is powerful, it can also run on regular gas, and its fuel economy is the best for a V8 car.
Heck, some of the V6 models offer the same/lower F/E.

There's one problem you have with that...the DVD player doesn't function when the car is in any drive gear. However, why go that route when you can get an 8 gig thumb drive and plug it into the USB port and play your MP3's off that?

I have a Gen with the tech. package, and the CD/DVD player does play MP3's. When using a DVD, the screen goes blank in any moving gear, but the sound is playing.

I stand corrected, good information. Only downside to MP3's on a dvd is that with the overall number one can hold...a tiny scratch can easily affect 100 songs. Still nice to know though.
