Lack of power and very little aftermarket support thats the two biggest ones for me.

The fact that most people bash my car (or just Hyundai's in general) without ever sitting in one or driving one. The reaction I get when someone sits in my car (s) is "wow, this is pretty nice for a Hyundai!". WTF were you expecting!? Seats made of old newspapers and a old tire rim for a steering wheel!? Geez!

If you have an auto and complain about the power.. its not the engine.. its that horrid slushbox they ran in them. Nether of my hyundais are rocks, but relative to the class of car. They are not bad.

in my LC's and my XD.. yep.. Very annoying and they come and go so impossible to track down and stop. So far so good on the HD, but it just crossed 10k.

Yep, I have some douche that hangs out with my car friends back home that literally discriminates against me because of the hyundai. He is half my size and couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag, scared of me.. but still talks until I actually say something back. Three times already he stepped over the line and hid in his car because he actually got me pissed with his stupid sh*t. The last was when he made yet another stupid comment about what I drive and I offered to race him in my oddessy. He then called it a piece of sh*t because I am a hyundai owner. That thing is one step from being fully loaded and very nice, it just lacks the NAV and back up sensors. Not sure how it becomes a POS because I drive hyundai's. I went off on his multicolored piece of sh*t mitz that he wrecked weaving in and out of traffic in an "epic" race with an n/a eclipse. Somehow managed to slide into a Nissan versa going in a straightish line with a FWD car. I have offered to run him in three hyundais now (and two vans).. won't take me up on my offer, because he wont go near a track for one thing. Why all the hate, because of the line in fast in the furious. Not joking on that. What is funny. He drives a 3000gt v6. Didn't that thing share an engine with another hyundai.. the older sonata I think. LOL.

Really? I was a big nissan guy before moving to hyundai and thought even the accent had decent seats. The HDs lacks a little on the sides to keep me from sliding during spirited driving, but I can go some distance without the buttgoingnumber pain thing. Worst was my 95 hardbody with the bench. Two hours and id have to stop for a few and walk around.

That they didn't include the British 1.6SE leather seats in the American market:









They look like a lot cooler, sportier, original and match the car so much better. The ordinary stitch pattern just doesn't flow.
