For a family car or every day driver, I would get one and put my Genesis up as a show car or weekend car. |
I like the Sonatas. The turbos are very rare and hard to find, but if I were to get a passenger sedan, either the Turbo Sonata or the 5.0 Genesis Sedan would be my choices.

probably the sonata with the lightest front end weight compared to it's 2.0T and 2.4L variants.
hyundai must've juggled the idea of plucking components from both variants of velosters and this is the end result. |
