I don't really know who makes the better cars, but I voted for Hyundai, since they compete in the WRC. One of them owns the other one, anyway. I forgot which.

If you think a tiburon is kinda nice than your smoking some good bud. I agree, most americans car are poorly built which is why jap cars are blowing them out of the water in sales.

Hyundais look better although I HAVE heard that Kia makes great family vehicles... just if there is ever a problem with it like there usually is, you will have more problems dealing with the people who get it fixed. They ARE ****oles when it comes to the warranty check. My cousins had a Kia and, well it was a minivan, and, well, it didn't work out once it broke down for the first time lets put it that way...

I'm probelby the only one in here that will defend both companies i think
they make aliright cars they get you from point A to B, their cars are getting better look at the hyundai tiburon or the Kia sorento, or the new Kia spectra they are nice cars with high quality; somehting i would have not said 3 years ago. They are getting better and better every year If i were to compare Korean auto companies to others it would be the same as Honda and Toyota during the mid 80s. All they need right now is more time so thier current high quality cars can be proven.
