  • Huh audi a6 or equus very difficult choice considering the equus only comes in two trim levels, Loaded and even more loaded and the loaded trim model is only $58,000

  • Honda and Toyota started with the same reputation that Hyundai started with. Now Toyota is #1 in sales, and both nameplates are considered top in quality. Hyundai announced that they will add a nameplate for their luxury brand. Based on looking at the Equus, they will be a strong competitor.

  • German > French/British/Italian/Swedish > Japanese >= Korean >>>>>>>>> American

    why can't the dang americans buld cars that could go straight when they could build a rocket to sent people to the moon? dang it!

    what my father would always say in his brand new chevy...

  • Why are the PEOPLE in the background not moving.HAHAHAHAHA

  • sorry, hyundai will never be a luxury car. Its a cheap korean car. Let the germans, japanese, US, and britans stick to that please.

  • @Rlnthndr

    leave the japs and yanks out please...

  • @valkyrieXX japs sure. Yanks (wtf who says that) no. Cadillac CTS-v is kicking bmws ass. Mustang is kicking the M3's ass. Why should I. Dumb ass closed minded European.

  • @Rlnthndr

    you don't use the term yanks? well the rest of the world certainly does... ;)

    honestly, who'd buy CTS-V or Mustang V8 over M5 or M3 if money was no object? even you wouldn't as patriotic as you might think you are...

  • @valkyrieXX I would because I love them. I could damn well afford them too. But I like mercedes the best. Which is why I have an E class. But even then. Theres nothing more fun or exciting than a big american v-8 at 7500 rpm.

  • @Rlnthndr

    7500rpm on american V8... you gotta be kidding me...

    Frankly, I don't know why anyone who's climbed up the ladder into German cars would ever go back to American... I have C350 now and owned 330i previously BTW...

    having driven the new C63 and E63... I realized that the Americans can no longer claim king of the hill... the teuton's have beaten the american's at their own game...

  • @valkyrieXX na. Mustang redlines at 8k rpm. And Lincoln is building cars to rival the e-class. I mean I love it. But I still love american muscle cars and our big trucks that can pull 20,000 pounds.

  • @Rlnthndr

    that's the redline but at what rpm does the power and the torque peak? the redline is completely irrelevant on the american V8s...

    lincoln? hyundai that you are bashing has already built a car that rival the E-class... it's called Genesis sedan...

    please get with the times...

    and looking at ford's (i.e. jaguar) track record, somehow I am not convinced that they can build a luxury RWD sedan that could rival german sedans..

  • @valkyrieXX Well since most of our highways are long straight boring roads. We really dont need the german stuff that packs piles of expensive crap that 90% of the people who buy them will never use. But I like to take the MB to the track so Im one of the 10%. But most of the people who buy them here, are 80 year old retired people who care about the early bird special more than 0-60 or g force in a corner.

  • @Rlnthndr

    exactly! that's the reason why cars like equus will work in the US... because 90% of the people in the US couldn't careless about that 10% that makes german cars special.. equus minus 10% -20%for the prestige factor and 10% for how the car handles at highspeeds and at hard corners.. arriving at 70-80% of the geman rivals price seems about right... don't you?

  • I have actually nothing against hyundai or any other nation but seriously, hyundai against BMW, Mercedes - lol cmon man i live in Germany, german cars are amazing not to mention american. And a little secret here, the free ipad , you are paying for it anyway...

  • U FKING GRINGOS MADE FUN OF TOYOTA AND HONDA IN THE 70'S, AND LOOK WHERE THEY ARE NOW YOU FAGGOTS....HYUNDAI IS IN THE SAME PATH AND EVEN BETTER, THEY ARE MAKING HISTORY NOW, AND DON'T BE SURPRISE WHEN U HAVE A HYUNDAI IN YOU GODDAMN GARAGE, LOL.

  • they should have made another name for their luxury line...not stayed with the name hyundai...yuck. no one ever says... yea baby wanna take a ride in my hyundai...no thanks.

  • @hiloboynokaoi Well apparently nowadays many Americans and people from other parts of the world prefer to ride a Sonata rather than a Fusion, Malibu, Maxima, Corolla....go figure why. Crappy things from Detroit...no thanks.

  • 40 to 50 grand for a Korean car? Fuck me running.

  • @Phill0046 I know, huh?

  • @Phill0046 not worth it at all, especially for hundai,kia... all of asian cars except for nissan,lexus,and other luxury cars that would worth the money !

  • @Phill0046

    how about that much for a US Car?? Fuck me running downhill!!!

  • @Phill0046 Well a vulgar shitty Mustang GT fully loaded can cost easily 50,000....yeah 50,000 for a F@#%@ Ford.

  • @Phill0046 Well a Fully equipped Ford Mustang can cost that....yeah its full of cheap shit plastic...if there are people paying 50k for a fucking Government motor or Ford....why not paying 50k for a ultra lux Hyundai???

  • Id rather have the price be less than the ipad included, stupid. Even if its only $400-$800 less. If someone wants an iPad they will buy one on their own.

  • One thing I hate with a passion about Hyundai right now is their stupid looking curve lines in the back. Plus their hood ornament is also very cheesy and lame. If you decide you must buy a Hyundai please do yourself a favor money wise and buy a elantra, sonata, or the equally luxurious but $30,000 less Azera.

  • @gman9507

    equally luxurious Azera? are you kidding me?

    Azera is like a cardboard box on wheels compared to the equus..

  • mxima169: You dont know what you are talking about. Stick to what you know, you are full of opinion and few facts.

  • @Bmants

    well said

  • @ChrisWorld2043 obviously you dont know anything about cars $60,000 dollars for a stupid hyundai is retarded when you can buy a 2009 lexus gs 350 for $40,000 , or a bmw 528i 2009 for $46,000 ... or a 2009 mercedes benz C63 AMG 451 HP FOR $58,000or a lexus isf for 59,000 2010!!!!! OR 2009 JAGUAR XJ8 FOR $60,000... OR MAYBE A 2009 RANGE ROVER SPORT SUPERCHARGED FOR $59,000, SO YOUR GONNA PASS UP A LEXUS, BMW, JAGUAR, MERCEDES BENZ AMG, AND A RANGE ROVER SPORT FOR A PIECE OF SH1T HYUNDAI

  • I just got an 08 BMW 650 for 50,000 i would never spend that much on a Hyundai why would i buy this car when i can get a benz for the same price shit i can even get a lexus for that price no thank i will stick to the real thing

  • @Jgoitom27 BMW's are alright, but they are only expensive due to the brand, just like gucci/louis vuitton, they are no better than other brands, its just the name, i will never pay for the name, the only thing worth buying is diamonds, or something you can invest in to make more money, im sorry but i'd take a lincoln mkz over a benz and bmw anyday

  • man i dnt care if hyundai comes out whith the best luxury car its still and always will be a hyundai just a big fancy peace of shit

  • @maxima169 You have it all wrong, i'd rather drive a hyundai if it looks this good over a luxury car, idk about you but i like to save and make more money to do the things i like, and im only 20 years old, I like how bill gates mindset is, hes a billionaire and drives a saturn

  • @maxima169 HAHAHA your so right

  • @plocco but who knows

  • Keep an eye on Hyundai. They are hungry....REALLY HUNGRY, and they are turning out quality vehicles for decent prices.

  • An iPad won't make me buy one of these overpriced Chinese sedans. Give me a Nissan Leaf, all electric for 25k and I'll buy my own iPad!

  • @S2NAZ hyundai isn't chinese...btw a nissan leaf's the best car 4 a guy like u...

  • @kopee35 Oh, you right, it's KOREAN such a big difference!

  • @S2NAZ

    yes there is a difference between chinese and korean cars.

    starting off with design and construction quality. plus hyundai has a reputation and a brand name that is well known compared to chinese cars. if you know a chinese car company equal to hyundai mention some.

  • @Core2duoMac absolutely agree, big difference in cars BUT they share the one thing in common so please forgive the knee-jerk reaction... They are both communist rule. I absolutely make every effort possible to avoid purchasing from communist nations such as China and Korea. Throwing in an iPad is insignificant when you look at the contributions being made by Nissan. EV's Rule!

  • @S2NAZ correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Hyundai is made by South Korea, which is a democratic country. China is still governed by CPC, which is a communist party, but their way of governing the country has been drastically changed since 1978, which made China more of a Socialist country than a Communist. I do agree that free ipad would be the last reason when it comes to purchasing a car, for me at least, and ok EV's rule :)

  • @S2NAZ hyundai isn't chinese...btw a nissan leaf's the best car 4 a guy like u...

  • I love the hyundai genesis it's also a luxury car competing with lexus. They're really the up and coming car maker, and look like they will be a company to reckon with real soon.

  • I don't think I understand the iPad. It looks like an oversized iPod with more features but if it is almost a computer why did Rachel Maddow's guest say it WASN'T? weird.

    Me? I paid WAY too much for a laptop a few years ago so I have no interest on anything else.

  • Cool I know where I can swipe an I pad? Go to dealership 5 windows 5 I pads.

    I am not this way but folks are out there that will.
