I wonder if the manual revs higher? I can't think of anything else that would make the car louder.

The rev limiter is usually set at a considerably lower RPM on vehicles with automatic transmissions, compared to the same engine with a manual behind it.

Waiting for a ban on filterless cigarettes and pointed scissors..

The Koreans have come a long way since '53...

Corporate espionage and reverse engineering go a long way, but with the Red Dragon right up the road or across the ditch, I'd do whatever I could to stay on top.

They have really stepped up their game since the BMW guy took over design. Reliability is way up there and factory warranty can't be beat. Koreans also give more tech for the price than anyone else.
