Why do people think Hyundai is copying the Japanese? People don't know how to look at designs. Mos tpeople think, since the Sonata's tailights are long and the Accord's tailights are long, Hyundai must've copied Honda. I"m sick of this crap. I mean, if Hyundai Copied Honda, woudln't the Japanese be mad? No, the Japanese aren't mad, that's why the Sonata won a "good design" award in Japan.

Merry CHRISTmas by the way.

Hmm, the early models did have a mitsu engine. But I don't think the body work was ever copied though. Things might look similar. But there are sooooo many cars these days that look similar and steal from each other. I mean, how many cars have them side mirror - side markers in them these days. I thought mercedes started that, now you have VW's, citroens, and more.

Like they say over here, stealing something good can be better than making something bad.
