I work @ Glendora HYUNDAI in Glendora, CA and my customers (and I) need to know if the Alabama plant is putting out the Sonatas as good as the Korean factories do? If so, watch out fellas, as this new kid on the block is ready to rumble with this nice looking puppy!

Thanks for any input as these start rolling off the line.

Beats me, as the GF has a Korean built one. But judging from American-built Toyotas and Nissans, they don't lose much of anything in the translation. Remember, the QC guys are still foreign.

i woudl think that there would be more effort to ensure there are no problems to remove doubt about the new build location!

Selling something as American-built will rarely be a drawback, except to those of us that are in the auto-industry. We get a little better picture about what the UAW has done for vehicle quality.
