How is this possible? According to Maccies the more expensive one has
to
have more "class" and performance, and reliability!!!!

The decades of spending 3x to 4x as much for a Mac than a much better
Windows machine has taken a toll on the Maccies feeble minds!

One of the entries in the forum:

"My cousin has an Azera. It's been in the shop 4 times since last year
for everything from Tranny to Engine to Alignment issues. I don't care
what people here say about Hyundai changing... to me they are still a
POS car company and I'd rather buy a Toyota...an OLD Toyota, not these
new trash Boxes they have been building over the last 12 years.

Tell your brother to get the BMW 328i... It's just better than his
other choice. I can't even believe that this is a comparison... "

Alright, so 1 post for the BMW, 137 for the Hyundia...

Final score Hyundia 137 BMW 1

Good Job, thanks for helping prove my point.

"As a previous owner of a 2001 BMW 325I, I can tell you without any
doubt or waivering...Have the Brother drive both cars and see what he
wants to drive everyday.

There really is no real comparision of those two cars past the pages
of a magazine. Anyone who hasnt spent some quality time behind the
wheel of a late model 3 series BMW would just not understand. It is
almost Bizzare to compare those two cars? I dont even think the
average aging enthuiast or upper middle class BMW driver even
considers the Azera as a viable candidate for chosing over the 3
Series. This buyer is much more apt to be cross shopping Infiniti's
and Lexus products."

From the same post:

"Dont get me wrong as I'm sure the Azera is a fine car. But it really
isnt a "True" competitor to the 3 Series BMW. Maybe in some crazy
sales brouchure that Hyundai hands out but in the real world...Real
BMW buyers are not even in the Azera realm of thought.

I would venture to think that an Azera buyer is a Camry buyer who
didnt like the price tag on an Avalon or Lexus and couldnt find the
Nissan dealer to look at the new Infinitis."

And, in another post:
"I can't really see how these two cars are in competition with one
another. One's a razor sharp sports sedan, the other is a Buick
wannabe.

Not that the Azera is a bad car, it's just that if someone is looking
at a BMW they probably want something very different than the Azera."

Most people don't want BMW's. That's why their sales volume is so low.
That's why the 3 Series exists. If someone went in with an open mind and
looked at the merits of Camry, Hyundai, Accord, Fusion, BMW but not the
price tag - the BMW would lose about 90% of the time. The only attraction
is the "snob appeal" - just like with macs. BMW's are in the shop more than
on the road.

Of course, this explains why BMW can't make enough 3 series cars,
right? This also explains why, in comparison tests against their
rivals from Audi, Lexus, Infiniti, Mercedes, etc., BMWs finish first
more often than not. This also explains why the most highly regarded
car enthusiast magazines, such as Car (Great Britain), Car and Driver,
etc., always rate BMW 3 series among the best cars. This also explains
why Car and Driver almost always has a BMW 3 series in their 10Best
cars of the year.

To back up my claim (something you don't appear able to do):
http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/12524/2007-bmw-328i.html
http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/12962/2007-bmw-328i.html
http://www.caranddriver.com/tenfivebest/
Etc.

Face it, zero. Once again, you have shown yourself to be a zero.
