Default Hyundai's New AGCS!!!

Well I reading road and track today while I was at the library and I must say...Hyundai is definatly trying to take bold new steps for their company. A first ever....electronically controled suspension for the 6 Generation Sonata which will debut in about a year here in the US. It is called Active Geometry Controled Suspension. This system uses 1-2 actuator on each control arm of the rear suspension system to adust the rear toe-in. I am not sure if is 2 actuators for each control arm or 2 total for the system. This will increase ride, handling, and comfort. It is mainly for used under hard cornering to provide additional grip. Just thought I would let you guys know. I hope Hyundai makes this avaiable for the US market...as we usually don't get all the goodies! Comments....?

I'm Sure Hyundai will bring the System to The Us,

Korean midsize sedan suspension's have been criticized by many auto Magazine's as being too soft and rubbery, Being mushy with numb steering with excessive understeer,

Hyundai will need to come up with something to get the auto enthusiast's attention
and I Think the Time is ripe for such a system to be introduced in the new line of hyundai's soon to follow,

I wouldn't be suprised if a Owner of a 2004 Accord Bought a NF Sonata Any Day now,

I Do hope this will be the hyundai to dethrone the Camry and the accord,
Obviously, The engine's the big tasty morsel everyone's waiting for,

are they both called the "Theta" for the inline Four and The V6?
the 04 Sigma Santa fe isn't too far behind with 200HP,

I'm Concerned on how chrysler is involved in it's part to develop the theta,
They've been making a number of defective Engine's especially the 2.7L V6

Don't forget that Mitsubishi Motors has stepped in to the designing and egineering of this new engine. Mitsubishi has been known to manufacture very decent motors with respectable if not above average hp. Example is the 6g72TT motor used in the 3000GT/Stealth RT and the 4G63T used in the old eclipses. I can see good things coming from this partnership. Also everyone can look for a bigger aftermarket support for this car and the cars to come that will use this motor. The V6 engine will not be named Theta. I am not sure if it is a bigger bored 2.7L Delta. I will have to check on that.
