Got my wish... the name has changed. Thank God someone at these car companies still has some good sense!
Agreed, the worst feature is the cheap logo and awkward grille shape.

But all honestly it all ends at the exterior aesthetics. Interior, engine and refinement are lacking with the Korean products.
As much as they have improved they're not quite there yet!

I read somewhere that within the next 5 years KiA/ Hyundai brand will be on par with today's luxury sedans.
I bought mine for the gas mileage, turbo, and the body lines. it has it flaws a little but I can't really complain.

I agree that the refinement is not there yet with KiA. my co worker has a 2008 Hyundai genesis sedan and the refinement and solidness is more on par with today's higher end cars.

no one thought of samsung when it came to tvs and phones at one time.

i could not disagree more. sure a hyundai/kia econobox won't have the refinement and quality etc. of an s-class but then neither does a corolla or civic. but 'flagship' or other upper end kias and hyundais can absolutely match or beat anyone if they're relentless and serious.

Looks good but it is odd how only the flagships from Hyundai and KIA are derivative. As of late, all the rest of the lineups don't look like anything else in their respective classes.
It's too bad they didn't photograph a model with properly aligned doors. (Check out the chrome trim below the B-pillar).

looks like a stretched 3GS, minus front face. even the door mouldings were ripped from it.

do you think a cadenza matches the quality of an ES?

their cars are fine. good quality. looks good. quoris and both the cadenza can compete well with it's competitors.
but they will not get the premium of lexus bmw mercedes. People will pay about 8k less for the equal bmw or lexus.
they need to change that cheesy kia logo asap. It just sounds and look so cheap and cheesy like something out of china or a swedish mafia song.
