  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I'm pretty sure that pic above is not a Hyundai at all. It's a Chinese knockoff of the current Sonata. The logo looks like that of a certain Chinese automaker, I just can't remember the name of the brand at the moment.

The real Sonata for reference:

The new Sonata is going to be a major upgrade. Last I heard (about 3 months ago) it will be available 1Q 2010. I assume it will be called a 2011 model, but not sure.

The Sonata is the "make or break" vehicle for Hyundai, like the Camry and Accord are for Toyota and Honda.
 
That would be a nice front-end for a new Sonata. I've heard it's going to be a four door coupe like the Mercedes CLS and Passat CC...

Picture is kind of grainy. The new Sonata?

Definitely not the new Sonata.

Here are some pics of the interior and a partial view of the exterior of the new Sonata.

The exterior isn't exactly my cup of tea (much prefer the the Kia VG), but the interior looks great.

Probably the new Azera? I heard it was being restyled.

Not the new Azera as well, since it doesn't incorporate Hyundai's new design language.
