They’re the top cars for initial quality. If you want to spend less, get a Hyundai — they’re #3. Lexus slips to second.

Porsche and Hyundai will emerge as the biggest winners Wednesday
when J.D. Power and Associates releases its 2006 Initial Quality Study,
industry sources say.
Porsche will vault to the top spot overall in the study, improving from
No. 32 in last year’s ranking, making Porsche the top European
nameplate.
Hyundai will place third, up from No. 11 in 2005. That makes the Korean automaker the top mass-market nameplate.
Toyota will round out the top four, moving up three spots from No. 7 last year.
The study, which measures quality after 90 days of ownership, asks owners to rate vehicle quality on 135 attributes.
