Hey Dazz well as a bit of a Toyota fan i must say that i have been coming round to Hyundai over the last few years and when i worked at Motors here in Burnie and had Hyundai's dealer info sheets to read and when they said in one of the info sheets that they wanted to be number one in the world of car manufactuers in ten years i thought they had a big way to go, there now about five years into that 10 years and they are very much on there way to the top and its great to see that Toyota is getting scared as Toyota needs a wake up call they have been resting on there good name for far to long now and its going to hurt them. I believe that the model camry that i have was the best that Toyota got to and there quality has been going backwards ever since(that being the early 1990s).

Thats a great magazine cover, and I agree Dazz, at first I thought Hemmi had been photoshopping!
It does show that Toyota are very wary of competition tho, they aren't just sitting pretty at the top as they already had Hyundai marked before they started to take off.  They aren't going to go down without a fight.

There is no doubt Toyota make good cars and that they are "generally" quite reliable but they are also mostly bland and conservative.. They will need to lift their game or Hyundai will catch up over the next few years... (especially after all this recall stuff)
