Default Hyundai Underpowered??

So why would the ceo of apc call Hyundai underpowered? What was he comparing them to, Civics? I hope not. So can anybody tell me why you think he'd say this? Sorry, I just don't get it.

Could you please tell us where you got the quote? In context, it might make more sense.

I remember seeing that on Battle of the Imports...Mother Auto Import Tour. I was in the chat with other tib owners like 2klow&sho....we were all so pissed...in fact..we were all watching it. I've never liked anything apc made for the tib.. I agree..boycot

Another point:
APC gets most of their products from Korea and Taiwan.
