Well, you hit on where I was going with that. Looking back at history for a comparison, the Koreans are breaking into the market much the same way the japanese did roughly 30 years ago - making something at least as good for less and standing behind it.
I don't care for anything coming to market from Korea, but we're all in the minority that doesn't view a car as strictly an appliance. For the majority that dumps a car before it racks up 100k, low capital expense and a warranty that covers you until you dump it is VERY attractive, and the cars don't seem to be noticeably worse (or better) than things costing 10-200% more.
