Actually, they were second in quality, after Japan.
Still, they've come a long way. |

I've actually had nationalist Koreans claim the opposite, when faced with the news that Korean products have historically been considered inferior quality in North America. "Oh, we keep the best ones and only export the rejects..."

Ive heard just the opposite...I thought that they, especially in the past, have exported their good stuff to increase business. I would think thats its all about the same though, just a difference of opinion I guess.
I still wouldnt buy one. |

| I think the Koreans deserve a lot of credit on this one. They've done a great job. Good for them. |

Did anyone actually read about this? They had less recalls. Thats it. Not to do with finish on the cars or anything like that. It is a good sign, but hardly surprising given the lack of varity in Korean cars.
