wow, I didn't know it was still alive and kicking. I haven't liked one thing about it since it came out. The whole retro/throwback thing failed epically IMO.

Your ignorance does not make everyone else wrong. The SBC is a half-century worth of engineering perfection. Designed, improved, redesigned, improved, improved, improved.The SBC has a HUGE aftermarket, is cheap to buy, own, and modify, is low-maintenance and reliable, and is easy to make lots of power with. What on earth is there to hate? Why would you NOT want one? Cheap, plentiful parts, easy to work on, will run forever...I'm at a loss for anything not to love.
its not that i dont think they are good motors...i know their well capable of high power and a nice torque curve.

first off, im not a chevy guy at all, never have never will be a bowtie man.second ive never liked the ls1 (see point above)

im more annoyed that people say an ls1 in anything will make it the best car ever.

If everyone had an LS1 in their car, that is the only exhaust note you would ever hear. The same old thing everyday. That is the only argument I can think of against it. I like diverse music and in my wacky world, exhaust notes fit into the music catagory.

Not a fan of SUVs, both because of the driving style of most people I've been around and because I feel they take up too much space. Also have developed a dislike for Hondas, but that is honestly mostly because of people I've met who own them. It's ironic because a D16 is the first engine I ever rebuilt.

Most Stang drivers that I've seen on the road are complete and utter fools. Now I'm not saying that all Stang drivers are "fools," I have good friends that have Mustangs, It's just a few of them that really gets me fired up . Let's see, I hate Civics the most with fart cannons and ricer flybys. Then there are the Integra's that "think" they are cool with their pep boys lights and welded exhaust. AND THEN, there are the Preludes. To be honest, it's the drivers that these cars attracts that is the problem. But it's mostly the Civics that gets on my nerves the most. Langley Park in MD is Ricer Central. That's prolly why I hate Civics so much. "Some" are fast and built, but the majority around here are posers.

being a honda/acura owner i find it strange i agree with you. most honda/acura drivers just beg to be hated, therefore causing the cars to be hated (excluding the models that are already ugly). from the idiots who think honda is the best thing to ever happen to the automotive industry to the ricers (miami has the most), just a bunch of people begging to be hated. there is no hope for the non-idiot honda owners; we'll never catch a break, because for every one level-headed honda owner, there's at least 3 hailing from idiot land.

i hate toyota's civic. then again, i don't like anything toyota has made lately. That ugly camry, solara, corolla, and the rest. yuck.

I hate vw's and Audi's, between myself, my last girlfriend and my wife I had 3 of them in my life between 1996 and 2004. All of them where expensive POS. As soon as the warranty was over, parts started to fail and they where expensive to replace. Some parts failed mutiple times while the car was still under new car warranty (i.e fuel pump, alternator). VW/Audi service experience sucked both at the dealer and corporate level.

That's okay. I'll keep all the 599s, GranTurismo Ss, Quattroporte GTSs, 750ils, 456s and 250 GTEs to myself.

You know, if it had normal tail lights instead of the horrible 70% chrome POSs it wears for butt cheeks it would look ten times less ugly.

That would help, but wouldn't cure it. The car is too tall looking for it's short wheel base. I sometimes have the same issue with Lancers. The Sentra's headlights are terrible too. That little Chevy Aveo trunk doesn't help at all. Plus, I hate the flat wheel arches that EVERYONE is doing now.

stop driving like a tool, get some oem tail lights, lose the subs, and you will never have to worry about them again.

That is one of the dumbest reasons I have ever heard for disliking a car, as are most of the responses in this thread. This thread makes my head hurt with the raw stupidity.

"boo hoo, I don't like this car because some kid revved at me one time in it, then this one blew off next to me. wa wa wa"

You are one ignorant mother f***er.

ZOMG it is made by hyundai! Anyone that is going to not give a car a chance because of the nameplate on the grill and trunk is a complete moron. Apparently you have not been in any new Hyundai. They have come a long way and are pretty damned good cars. Plus, the warranty is amazing.

The car has fantastic body lines. I won't argue this point with you because styling is is always up for debate.

How big are you? I have driven one of these cars and felt quite comfortable in it. I am 6'4". I also had two other people in the car at the time. Sure felt fine to me. I would be more than happy to take one on a road trip.

This doesn't even make sense to me. Way to go, so what you're saying is that the car could potentially do one thing or there is a possibility of it doing the total opposite. Gotcha.

The Genesis is far superior to the 240sx and it is a shame for you to say that is is the next s chassis. The Genesis IS a sports car. The 240 is an economy commuter car.

Yea they've REALLY stepped their game up. The only thing I don't like about that car is how the rear quarter windows aren't level with the rest of the windows. It kinda looks like they're melting or something.

Replace everything you just said with 'Nissan' and 'Japan', welcome to 40+ years ago.

How tall are you anyways?If we met, I doubt you'd call me "tiny people".
