FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Dec. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyundai Motor America today announced November sales of 28,045 units, a 46 percent increase compared with November 2008. Calendar year-to-date, Hyundai sales are up 6.2 percent to a total of 401,267 through November. This marks the eleventh consecutive month of year-over-year gains in retail market share. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20091001/HYUNDAILOGO) "While we have continued to deliver substantial year-over-year sales gains and sustained market share growth, we were, quite frankly, hoping that the economy and overall industry would have bounced back a bit more than we are seeing right now," said Dave Zuchowski, vice president of sales. "Looking ahead to December, we're confident we'll finish the year with market share at least a full percentage point above our record 3 percent share in 2008." Hyundai remains uniquely positioned to grow in difficult market conditions with its strong value story, highest quality rating among non-luxury brands, and best fuel economy rating in the industry. The fuel-efficient Accent, Elantra and Sonata had significant sales increases of 93, 88 and 52 percent, respectively, versus 2008, while the Santa Fe once again delivered a solid sales gain up 53 percent over a year ago. Genesis continued its strong launch performance, with sales up 52 percent over last year. Hyundai Motor America, headquartered in Fountain Valley, Calif., is a subsidiary of Hyundai Motor Co. of Korea.

Ummmm??????? Just plugging my design's authenticity.

Has anybody thought to consider that so far practically everything GM said they were going to do pre-bankruptcy has changed? Why isn't the last Pontiac off the line going to a Museum? Maybe something else is going on? Also when you say you don't want to start a discussion about something then make a statement that you know WILL cause discussion, don't be upset with the results of your statement. Also, the thread everybody is complaining about was in the lounge! It wasn't in the holy grail land of Pontiac on C&G. Finally, the end of Pontiac was when GM started being stupid and giving into Pontiac/Buick/GMC dealers that wanted to sell volume like a Chevrolet dealer. So the easiest thing for Wagoner to do was badge job so they could get volume. I don't think we have heard the last from Pontiac.

I shouldn't be one to judge based on my chop skills, but the headlights are still not period correct. The plastic light housings with the bulbs and mirrors were not around in 1980. It's all about the sealed beam hallogens.

DO WANT! When my phone's 2 years is up (1 more year) I'm getting something like this.

Ok here is the deal bro. . . You give me back the C&G name on Twitter and I will pretend like this conversation never happened.

Merger, more like Yugo is looking for a bailout from the U.S. Government.

Camino, I may not be the best chopper in the world (MS Paint). But I think my first car I did would be the closest to what GM would have really done. I took a grill and lights off a 80 Pontiac Bonneville and slapped it onto the 79 toro. That was their forward thinking design in 79-80. The Bonneville would have been the closest thing to a Toronado that Pontiac made. The rest were done for fun.

Someday I will go into business where I kidnap people looking for cars and take them to dealers to test stuff. I will blindfold them and cuff them and take them there. How can I get this business to be legal?

Fapczar,

I'm going to be there. I'm trying to get a posse together to go with me.

It's a Motor Trend Show. Same exact cars were in Fresno a few weeks ago. Mercedes was also not there. I worked this show a few years ago for Jeep. Very nice facility.

GM has a sync competitor on the horizon.
