I got this as a rental car today . .

Overall The cars I' m used to is cayenee, X5 , ML55

well , this car came as a pleasant surprise. lightweight but handling was good, it delivered nearly 300 miles on a tank . . not only that, it got some lookers.

The steeering was 90 % of a cayenee.. same with the engine, it felt very lively again probably 90 % ofa BMW inline 6 er. the interior was comfortable nothing to complain with the car.

what impressed me was it was almost 90 % of the car of what these Premium brands are, but was only about 25 % of their price.

So my questions is, if you didn't need the super sharp steering and super balanced engines...and liked fuel economy....why not consider a hyundai...

 

Because its a Hyundai...

 

yeah I know what you mean... a friend of mine just picked up a Mazda CX-7 on a special lease @ 250/mo and it's 80% of my cayenne...

 

While I seriously oppose the "90% of a Cayenne" statement, they have definitely shaped up over the last few years. They don't deserve their reputation.

 

Wow!!!

 

I dont know about you guys but im getting around 400 miles on a full tank of gas......sometimes it even hits 420/430.........

Mods FTW

 

That does it, I am getting me a Hyundai. Hell that MPG is way better than what my bro is getting with his GL320CDI.

 

LMAO.... thread of the year.

 

from your previous or currrent rides that you listed, I dont see the fourth one being a santa fe. 90% is a stretch.

 

people buy Porsche, BMW, Mercedes because they see car is a luxury. people buy Hyundai because it's just a transportation. to each of their own.

 

It is a pretty good vehicle, but buy it knowingly that it is a disposable vehicle. and like all vehicles which are depreciating assets, this depreciates a lot more. You can sell it yourself if you believe in the Kelly blue book, but when you go to a dealer it is the wholesale cost.

same with KIA.

 

You seem to post a lot of "anti cayenne" stuff for someone who posts on 6speed (in the Cayenne section no less)

Whats sup wit dat???

 

Me? I like the Cayenne, i was referring to the Hyundai as a disposable vehicle, the cayenne pretty much maintains a nice resale value

 

I do think the audio system is a little bit on the crappy side :whistle:

 

nah not you...the thread starter
