But I don't think it's neccesarily true. My step-mom's uncle is in his early 70s. And his last three cars have been Hyundai/Kias. Does that mean, based on this case, that Hyundai's are old people cars?
you are missing the point completely - those prev gen kia and hyundai had the older , less powerful and less reponsive engines perfectly suited to those folks
unless they owned the turbo genesis coupe or genesis sedan , did they ? no ,i didn't think so
does that clear it up for you ?
another thing -- you can get an old person to buy a young persons car , not saying the prev gen was , because it wasn't ! but you can't get a young person to buy an old persons car -- the previous gen kia and hyundai cars did absolutely nothing for me - they barely touched my radar -- these up coming gen cars with new engines is a whole different ball game ,being more powerful and more responsive and better looking AND BETTER HANDLING
the only hyundai i've ever liked was the 2nd gen tiburon , and that was for looks only , it was over weight , didn't handle as well as it could and was underpowered ,( might do your folks just fine )
look at the last elantra , what a femmy looking thing that was , with its 2 l motor putting out 132 hp while hondas 1.8 was putting out 140 . hyundai's new 1.6 alone is expected to put out 140 hp.
look at the old accent 110 hp from a 1.6 hondas 1.5 got more
people who bought the prev gen hyundais for the most part did so on price . these new cars ,people will buy them for reasons i've posted elsewhere
god do i hate lame arguments such as yours . next time , give your reply some thought first before posting it , so i don't have to waste my time stating the obvious
i will no longer reply to lame arguments regarding my posts
