pffft thats a easy choice either a Lexus or the infiniti.
I dont want my friends to come up and say: “Ewwwww you bought a hyundai?????”
And you got to think about resale value, my uncle sold his 2003 Hyundai sonata for 50 bucks!!!!! (no accidents but the engine failed and the radiator broke)
And in these bad econimic times, who wants to buy a new car?????
Personally I rather buy my self a nice used Lexus,Infiniti or Acura.
Or even a New Yaris!
Man I hate hyundais

I didn’t realize this was a RWD with so much hp… Hyundai’s definatly going up against the big boys aren’t they? It doesn’t look like they’re going for the Avalons or S80s with that setup. Still, if I’m buying a car like that I’m waiting until I can get the luxury brand. Why settle for a Hyundai?

i think the Hyundai is gonna need time to build the “emotion” it lacks but this car is a clear winner ( at least with the stats they gave us ) the only problem is the name and its what they deserve trying to turn a brand name over night how do i expect to impress the ladies Joking. but honestly thats the problem its like if Honda were to try and start a luxury brand ppl would not take it seriously

id have the M45 sport, I think its the best looking and best handling, and has all wheel drive.

If they didn’t want the Genesis to compete with the 5-series, the Lexus GS and the Infiniti they wouldn’t have dropped in a 375 hp V8. Seems like it’s a heck of a deal… but I’m still not sold on it.

I think the point is that a Hyundai is being mentioned with all of these models. That is what Hyundai was going after and so far it seems like they have done a very good job.

I don’t think the Genesis is going up against cars like 5-Series, M45, or the Lexus GS. I always pictured it being more of a competitor for the Toyota Avalon, Lincoln MKS, Volvo S80….

I’d have to go with the BMW. I think it would add a touch of class to any activity you used the car for.

The Genesis will not be released in Europe, so I can’t even doubt about it. The BMW would be my choice.
