Wow... no posts in nearly 10 weeks, or more?
Where ya all at?
Anyhow.... seems we will be getting a 3 door accent, for tuners(meaning, 110HP , you fix it up).
Competition on 3 doors sounds like Yaris coming out next year as a toyota/ECHO replacement.
Nissan and Honda to follow suite.
Sonata getting better ratings by some reviews, like Jed Delinka, and others....that Fusion.
After driving a Sonata I-4 2006 and then a fusion V6 .... the I-4 feels almost as powerful as the V6 in the Fusion for some odd reason.
I know the fusion has 221HP, and the I-4 has only the 162HP....but I honestly could nto see such a major difference as to want to buy the fusion.
Not knocking it's looks, etc, just saying....
the positives for fusion over sonata is that All Models get that telescopic steering wheel/column deal, versus the LX only(top model) for Sonata(maybe Hyundai will rethink this and fix this in a year or two?).
Other than this.. that is about the only advantage over a sonata right now.
Kia rio(sedan) looked good... about 80% the size of the 04 sonata.
Thinking accent may have nicer looking interior trim, if they keep what they hsow on the net.
Later.
