Yeah, I had heard that. So there will be a different Jetta for Europe then? The 2011 jetta gets drum brakes, inferior factory hancook tires, loses independent rear suspension, loses a nice upscale tight-fit/finish and good-feeling solid interior. And like you said, it is terribly bland and boring to look at. Consumer reports said the engine is coarse as well, and sound-deadening is less effective.

Nope. Europe might get a few different facial styling/options and packages but its the same Jetta we get. Top gear mag gave it like a 6/10 and EVO didn't like it that much.

I currently work at a Hyundai dealership & i tell you the EQUUS is an awesome car. Rear seats recline,cooler under your arm rest,suspension goes up and down at a touch of a button! 60k for this thing!

For those of you that might be worrying about reliability. I have 2 Hyundais in my yard now. The wifes 05 Elantra and my 08 Tiburon. Neither has given us the slightest worry. In fact, neither has been back to the dealership since we drove 'em off the lot. I can't say that about any other cars we've owned.

2010 3.8 Gen coupe w/6 speed auto.... car rocks, fun to drive, handles well, no problems with 13k on the clock... I drive almost 100% with TCS OFF however... (TCS stays on only in the rain) Still waiting for a tune/sc/tt for the 3.8!!!

My wife just bought a 2011 Hyundai Sonata and loves it! She was looking for fuel economy but this car really surprised us with the styling, the roominess inside, the responsive power of the 4 cylinder engine and it's overall quality.

I've owned two Honda Accords and always marveled at their quality. This new Hyundai is every bit on par with the Honda Accords.

Hyundai has come a long way over the years and by offering more value and quality for the dollar, they have become a force to be taken seriously by their competitors.
