@Nbuilder1 Isn't the best of both worlds better than something new?

What the!!! Is Hyundai trying to be Nissan with its R-spec badging all they are missing is the V. Now if they just changed the look of the car not to look like a Benz it would have its own image. Borrowing this and that from different manufacturers is not innovation.

I think Hyundai should make a more luxury brand like Toyota has Lexus. People still think Hyundai is cheap.

The tighten the suspension and steering, and call it sport? What a cheap ass idea. They don't even give sport suspension. Not to mention the cheap slap on sideskirts available at your friendly neighbour do-up shop. Another Hyundai attempt at being "as good as the rest". I would rather pay more than get screwed over like this.

why they won't go all in just yet...but they are slowly breaking into the market which I think is a smart move...beleive me keep your eye on Hyundai,they are not stupid and they are playing the game right right now

[dubbs19831983]

I think Hyundai could make a car with a price tag as much as other luxury cars,and it could very well be just as good or even better...but people will still say "its still just a Hyundai"...if Hyundai put another 20 or 30 grand in the Genesis and added more bells and whistles and priced it the same as a BMW or Mercedes people will still say the same thing...until peoples perception of Hyundai shifts then its always gonna be that same line said...I think Hyundai knows this and that's

@Xrobx6000X Dude, get a clue.. They are only fallowing in the Honda and Toyota's footsteps.. This Genesis for example is not unlike the original Lexus Ls400.. Trouble is, they didn't have the money to create an entire separate brand for it, so they just made a different badge.. Sure, Toyota is boring as all hell now. But in the 90's they were Bringing it, while Hyundai was busy building trash.

Hyundai has BALLS, unlike conservative crowd pleasers *honda* cough, *toyota* cough, cough. I love Hyundai because they love to push the envelope with style and power. Though they may not execute to perfection, you have to give them respect for laying it all on the line.
