I remember in college, a friend of mine had a Hyundai Excel. Wow, it was quite an experience riding in that jalopy down the potholed streets of Manhattan. Felt like the whole car was held together by a single loose bolt.

I never drove one of the old ones. I did test drive one before I bought my last Infiniti. I really considered it, but bailed at the last minute. I liked their crossover suv (Veracruz, I think) but it lacked built-in navigation or Ipod functionality which I had grown used to. In retrospect, Infiniti's Ipod interface is so bad and the Nav has taken a step backward; I wonder whether I'd been better off.

" Hyundai's cars were indeed that bad when they first came to America.'s cars were indeed that bad when they first came to America."

Not to mention even uglier than old Nissans. When you sell a person the second largest purchase they'll make in their life and it's a piece of crap, they don't forget. They tell everyone they know, for the rest of their lives. Hyundai doesn't even have the "buy American" argument to get people to give them another shot.
