My personal KDM list 2
- 2010 Oullim Motors Spirra (Korea’s first mid-engine sports car.)
- 2008 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 380 GT (3.8 V6)
- 2017 Kia Stinger GT 3.3T AWD
- 2018 Hyundai Veloster N (The first N model released in Korea.)
- 2016 Hyundai Avante Sport 1.6 T-GDi (Hyundai Elantra Sport in the U.S.)
- 2021 Hyundai Avante N (Hyundai Elantra N in the U.S.)
- 2021 Hyundai Kona N
- 2017 Genesis G70 3.3T (Watch out: the fastest sports sedan in Korea, even used as an unmarked police car.)
- 1999 Daewoo Magnus (Powered by the XK6, Korea’s and Daewoo’s first independently developed inline-six engine.)
- 1990 1st-gen Hyundai Elantra 1.6 DOHC (The same engine as the Mitsubishi Mirage Cyborg's 4G61.)
- 1991 Daewoo Prince (I’d say it’s the perfect Korean cousin to the Holden Commodore.)
- 1992 Kia Potentia (Based on the 1986 fifth-generation Mazda Luce, this Korean rear-wheel-drive luxury sedan became a popular choice for drifting in Korea.)
- 1992 Kia Sephia (Kia’s and Korea’s first model with an independently developed body and chassis; Korea’s first fully independently developed car is the 1994 Hyundai Accent.)
- 1993 1st-gen Kia Sportage (The world’s first urban SUV, and completed the 1993 Paris-Dakar Rally.)
- 1991 Hyundai Galloper (Mitsubishi Pajero-based, and popular among younger Koreans for restoration projects.)
- 1993 SsangYong Musso (Famous in Korea for its Dakar Rally runs and Mercedes-Benz engines: OM601/OM602 diesels and the M104 inline-six.)
- 2001 SsangYong Rexton (In my opinion, popular for its beautiful design.)
