Looks good! The grille doesn't look as bad in these shots. The interior looks like a class up from the previous car, and most if not all competitors. And they finally put some great-looking alloys on the Sonata! I hated the ones on the 2009 Limited.

I'm considering trading in my 07 camry v6 which has been giving me a lot of problems.
I have had three camrys and simply, this is ths worst i ever had
I don't trust a reliability of Toyota anymore. I would go for Hyundai.

Man that's just perfect. Now it's really gonna be hard to chose between the Genesis and Sonata. I was planning on getting the 2010 Genesis, but now I might have to rethink that decision. As long as the US version comes with all the options the Korean version has, I'll probably be trading my 06 Sonata in for it.

Real unlikely the 2011 Sonata for the US will have all the options available in the ROK. That is certainly not true today. I think US buyers would get sticker shock at a Sonata loaded up like that.

While its true that this has been Hyundai's practice in the past, lets wait and see on this one.

Sorry guys, but as a fan of the last Gen Sonata, and the Current Gen Sonata, not a big fan of the new 2011; maybe I just need to see one in person, but it loses a lot of the "Semi-Lux Sedan" styling I like on the two I own (2003 GLS V6 and 2009 GLI I4 Auto). I'm thinking that I'll probably not end up buying a Sonata with this styling. The front isn't bad, but the whole roofline look, just doesn't look like a Sonata anymore. This looks like it would have been a better fit for the Azera than the Sonata.

I am liking the look of the new Sonata. The only thing that bothers me is the front end. For some reason, the front looks very strange to me. Maybe its the grille. I feel that it looks too Toyota Venza-like. Also if you look at the vehicle's profile shot, the front fender well looks higher and bigger than the rear. Thats very strange. And what is up with the styling of the wheels? I feel that if they put the 18" wheels from the Genesis line (or something similar) on the Sonata, it will greatly improve the looks of the car. Hopefully we will be getting better wheel options in the US for this car. The interior simply looks amazing for this class of car.

Great pics, thanks for sharing. I especially like the detailed view of the center console. That dash puts some "luxury" cars to shame, IMO. I am wondering if the seat-shaped control is for power settings, or something else? Also it appears there are only about 20 buttons on the console (someone else said 30). Still a lot of buttons, but most of those are for the audio/nav system, and there's a big round volume control knob at least.
 
I sure hope the USA gets those folding mirrors!

I think it controls the direction of the air conditioning. I imagine if you press the round button (which probably represents the head) it sends wind to you face and if you press the lower half of the seat it sends wind to your feet.
