Thanks for posting this. Since most people who bash Kia/Hyundai have never been closer to one than beside one at a traffic light, it's good to hear straight goods from someone with an open mind.
Lets not forget that Datsun, Toyota, and Mazda were all in the same place as the Korean twins at one time. It's just that the Japanese marques had a 30 year head start. That Lexus (essentially Toyota) could lead the reliability and satisfaction surveys in North America would have been unfathomable in the 1970's.
