Hyundai Genesis!

[INXS]

Just saw this car on the motor week car show and they say it's a winner costing 10K less then the rest! I just wonder where it's made, if it's not here I'm sure it will be soon. Lot's of bussiness friendly Red states down south!
V6 starts @ 33K, V8 @ 38K. I'm sure that's with a lot of extras!

Aren't all of the Hyundais made in Korea?

Aren't all of the Hyundais made in Korea?

They built a huge state of the art plant in Alabama about four yrs ago as did Mercedes and I think another major company. I've followed their progress for yrs and like Nissan they laid it all on the line, nearly going under doing so, to have great long term growth!

One thing I recall, about ten yrs ago, when they were nearly bankrupt, was that their workers worked in their factories which were only heated to 40 degrees. Their workers knew they had to do without in order to survive!
Reminds me of a job I had once, the building had just about the same temps in the winter.

Everybody laughed at the Koreans at first. They didn't learn from having their feet shoved in their mouths when they laughed at the first Jap cars. Now the Koreans are coming on strong and the quality is very high. Something else to remember is that none of the domestics would have these 100,000 mile warranties if it wasn't for Kia and Hyundai.

Scale the cost of living and their wages 17-$21 a hour I believe, and you see they pay well!

They have been getting pretty good reviews, and I am sure the resale value will be really low. A used Genesis will probably be a terrific deal in 2012...

I think resale depends on quality, if after three yrs of good durability it would bring a good resale. Folks follow that stuff today, esp. with repair rates at about $90 a hr!

Down in Alabama , the Genesis isn't!

So everyone should keep that in mind!

I'm sure it will be made here soon as their market share is growing fast!

[NNT]

So they ship all the parts over here to have our guys assemble it. then they can pass it off as "built in America" so Americans can buy them guilt free. REAL Americans are smart enough to know s**t from shinola. The current economic conditions are a conglomeration of these jap buyin, livin above their means via credit and havin too many kids people. You reap what you sowe, so keep buyin jap crap and enjoy the depresssion.

yup , im driving a ford , and before that a bunch of GM cars

we need to slowly stop letting so many foreign products into this country , we need to start making our own products . cars , electronics etc , etc

otherwise we are just a bunch of middle men selling other peoples products . with that it is only a matter of time before everything goes to hell and we are living in a depression

buy American!!!!!!!

I think Raceman and others pointed out that some American cars have more foriegn parts then do the American plants of Honda, Toyota and others?

Problem is the corperate taxes, local, and state taxes, work rules!

Change that and you will not have to worry near as much from the foreign companies. Why should we not put the blame in order of it's effect on the American worker????

Buy American doesn't help the fact that we have the second highest taxes in the world!!!

Ah, but then Washington couldn't steal all our $$$$$$$$$$$$$!

Remember, I've stated often that I pay well over 7K property taxes, about 14% (Total) state tax, 7% sales tax. While my sister in Alabama pays under $400 property tax for a bigger house and more land!
