UGH. Leave me the yucky ones.
Sorry to any Hyundai or Saturn owners.
WHAT! Saturn....yucky? Have you been to a Saturn dealership lately? Find me one ugly car they make please. Last time I saw a Saturn Sky drive by my jaw hit the floor. Gorgeous cars, especially the new Aura's or whatever they are called.

Sure they look good. For 20k miles. Then they are continuously in the shop. You get what you pay for. Same goes for kia/suzuki/hyundai. I see more of these 4 cars in shops than anything else. By FAR. That's why they have great warrantys... They have to, or they'd never sell.

I'm actually a Banker, but I do a lot of auto work on the side (growing up, this is what all of us around here did). I work weekends at a friend's auto shop. He's since cut out anything lower-end... It's all luxury vehicles now, Like Audi, Lexus, BMW, Mercedes, etc. Don't get me wrong, the Hyundais, Kias, and whatnot all fit certain lifestyles. Awesome warrantys, but they spend a lot of that warranty actually being worked on. Weight it out when buying a car.
Do you want a car to drive that is in the shop for 2 months of the year, limiting how much you drive it, but doesn't cost you anything;
Or do you want a car that costs more to work on, but you only have to pay that once a year and lose a few days worth of drive time?
That's what it comes down to.
In the end, you get what you pay for, which is what makes Honda/Toyota such great buys. They have found the balance.
