Nice, they're beginning to see the advantages of the QL sir Bloo. Rare bird that it is, hehe.

And some say Korean cars are not good, if only after sales service will improve in some areas, there's no doubt that this will slice a large chunk of sales from jap cars.

They should look at how KIA cars, specifically the Sportage, is selling in North America and many European countries.

Sales are at par with most Jap and even American counterparts.

Owner satisfaction is quite good.

Prevalent parin kasi sa ibang kababayan natin yung misconception na mababa ang quality ng Korean cars compared to Japs and other brands. Quite the opposite now. Just take a look at how Ford is doing and also Chevrolet, among others?

Of course I'm biased. Hehehe.

They might need a change of underwear Master E. [emoji16]

Or at least have a stiff drink right afterwards.

I would love to drive that thing all the way to Pagudpud on the TPLEX with no toll booths and enforcers along the way, hehehe.

Even just from Clark to Dinalupihan, I would love to know how much more fun it can offer. Driving near 200kmh in heavy rain near the end of the tires’ grip can be scary but with the Stinger, it was composed and we couldn’t complain.

Kia and Hyundai have both gone a long way from its bad reputation in the late 90s. In such a short time, they were able to transform themselves. The new Kia Telluride is a candidate of MororTrend’s SUV of the year competing against the likes of the Outback, Aviator, GLE, and X3.

It didn’t help that the Japanese had tax perks while Korean cars didn’t. It cemented into the minds of pinoys then that Korean cars were not worth it. Now, with the quality surpassing that of most in the region, prices have been very competitive. Buying quality has been made affordable.
