Yeah thats their luxo offering, while it might be a nice cruiser is there anything special about it other than a standard 8 speed auto and a bit of comfort , no, just a luxo barge, and as far as I can see all of the korean cars are just that ......transport with accessories, not that theres anything bad about that, but try and find an equivelent to an St or an 86 or an f6 /335/hsv, anything at all with a dsg gearbox , I"ll eat pumpkin if I'm wrong (I hate pumkin), but most of their cars are run of the mill and not something most would aspire to own over any brand unless economic considerations were top priority.
