Nissan does smart business(?)

I don't care much for Hyundai; although, if i'm forced to, i can say I respect the brand. I think the one area where Nissan has really excelled is Design

I think the one area where Nissan has really excelled is Design. That carries over to Infiniti, as well.

Hyundai is still a Hyundai at the end of the day.

Well, at least they are working hard to climb up the ladder. I am not saying I like their cars or whatever, since the original post from OP is talking about the Company, not a specific model from the line-up, I just want to say he could have much more to say about Hyundai.

If you say Hyundai is still a Hyundai, it is true, but look at Toyota, if someone tell you Toyota can compete with MB and BMW 30 years ago, you won't believe it either.

Anyway

just my CAD$0.02

Pretty obtuse statement. I travel a fair amount and like to try different cars. I am able to pick them with my rental car company.

I snagged a Maxima yesterday and well...talk about *disappointment*. They still have the '4DSC' tag which was true in the 90's but now...ick.

Having rented enough 4 cylinder Sonata's recently, its a better car feature for feature. The Max has a better steering wheel, but the 3.5 is rougher then it should be, the CVT is meh, interior trim OK but not what it should be for their flagship sedan at all.

The Maxima feels far heavier then the 3400-3500 lbs its listed at.

Other then styling...its hardly differentiated from the Altima.

If you said here's 25K you must buy one of the other...Nissan would lose here if it was my money.
