Next time I am meeting someone at a game, I'll be sure to tell them to meet me near "Hyundai Gate 1". :p

I have owned two hyundai's in my life and they were very good cars. I traded one in for the other and crashed the other in a ditch. Neither had any mechanical problems.

I have zero problem with this. Good job, Cards team marketing!

It's the Cards that get the cash. Hyundai dealers still have to sell the cars.

Wait until they start putting logos all over the uniforms. Pro Golfers look more like NASCAR drivers every day. :)

Of course I have no problem with the advertising. Without it there would be no professional sports. Life without Cardinal Football!?!?! :hulk:

About 6 months ago I purchased a 2011 Chevy Impala LTZ with 10,000 miles on it. I did not even know they still made the Impala. It looked in every sense like a brand new car and was equipped with things you find in high end cars such as showing the exact air pressure in each tire, Blue Tooth built into radio and on steering wheel for you mobile phone, power everything. It is as tight as can be without the slightest squeak, Onstar, remote start, fog lights, leather, back seat folds down and into trunk, 18" tires, 6 air bags, etc, etc, The engine is an 8 cylinder powerhouse. It will fire off like a Corvette which i have had. It sure is not your grandfathers Impala. I was not even considering a Chevy of any sort. The Chevy dealer was a Honda dealer which is how I happened on this vehicle. It is not highly rated by Consumer Report because of fuel economy and if you drive a lot and are looking for fuel economy I would not suggest it. It is however a very comfortable extremely well equipped car that is fun to drive. As a former President of an Avis franchise I have driven about every car there is and went every year to Detroit and drove many cars on the test tracks. American cars have obviously made a giant leap forward in making autos and ones that are fun to drive. Even Chevrolet. The LTZ is the high end of the Impala line. I have had several top of the line Honda Accords and this car has performed every bit as well as the Hondas. How it will do in the long run is yet to be seen as I have had it only for about 6-8 months but so far it drives like a champ, just like it did the day I drove it away from the lot.

The Hyundai Genesis sedan is a hell of an automobile. Smart move by them trying to build their image. The new stuff is quality, but they have to get past their marketing move of the 90s selling only cheap and easy cars.

No problem with the deal at all.

I think they should sell advertising for each yard line, IMO.

So which Cardinal is going to jump over a 4 foot tall /5 foot wide Hyundai this year in Flag? Not too hard really, but it looks kinda cool in slow motion.

I love it. "2nd and 6 from the Pink Taco 37 yard line. 8th play of the Home Depot drive which started at the GlobalMed 22. Dow Chemical Double Deuce breaks the AFLAC huddle and heads to the Land O' Lakes line of scrimmage".

Hyundai's haven't been "low tier" since the late 90s after which they dedicated their company to producing low maintenance automobiles with several internal upgrades at no upgraded cost. This allowed them to offer their 10 year, 100,000 mile warranty that other major companies are trying to duplicate now, 7 years after the fact.

I would LOVE to see the Bidwills use some of that money to build an indoor practice facility.
