    Hey! I own 2 GM cars, had zero trouble out of either. All car companies are stupid...and I also own a Hyundai. ;)

    Oh, I'm not knocking all there products. Just there business. They have never run a profitable business because of huge mistakes like the VOLT. It's ridiculous..

    See now I tried to stay out of the car discussion and here I go!

    Yup, but for some reason some companies can make a descent sales numbers and some don't. BTW I'd take Hyundai over GM anytime :) Reefbreeders is about to change LED market dramatically, not every one may pay close to $1k for a light fixture.

    Hyundai doesn't offer anything that I'd drive (the Hyundai is the wife's car).

    I would say "slightly faster" ;D

    Charger SRT8 VS Genesis Coupe in ksa - YouTube

    anyway, I would have no problem paying for a $700 fixture, that is proven to be bad a$$, but I just don't make enough :) that's why reef breeders got my business last night.

    Just went to build and price for both cars:

    1.Genesis Coupe track 3.8 start MSRP - $35125
    2.Charger SRT8 - MSRP $45998

    :)
