Used 2009 Hyundai Genesis Consumer Reviews
best car under $40k
after 6 lexus's, i decided to save $20,000 and purchase a 2009 Genesis. after driving the car for about 6 weeks, i would honestly say i would purchase the Genesis over the Lexus even if they were the same price. BEST CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED!!!!
Hyundai Genesis
The Genesis with the V8 is a kick to drive. It is a very stylish car and the interior is beautiful. Those are the two reasons why I bought it. There are a few kinks that still have to be worked out with mine. After having the tires balanced it is still rough on the interstate. The brakes still screech when I back out of the garage.
09 Genesis...my wish list
No doubt the best luxury car for the money. Might trade mine in for the V* when it shows up. My wish list. Back up camera (NAV Model) needs to come on faster at start up. Genesis logo remains on the screen too long when put in reverse at start up. I have backed up 10 feet before the screen goes to back up.
Haunting noise
I've had mine a couple of months now and 5000 miles. Two issues,,The speedometer reads about 10% fast. I hate doing math while I drive and I don't like knowing the odometer showing 10% more miles than actual, not to mention the gas mileage indication is also overstated. I also hear a faint "knocking" sound at 1900 rpm just before shifting. Seems to have changed somewhat after the recall reprogram. Dealer has been unable to assist with either problem. Anyone out there having similar issues?
A Hyundai!!!!
Ok here it is...I purchased a Hyundai. I feel so much better getting that out in the open. I was driving a Lexus IS before the...Hyundai. Still difficult to say. The car has great power with the V6, wouldn't pay extra for the V8. The ride is what you would expect from a Lexus, Benz or BMW. Small storage space is limited. Average 27-28 MPG on the Hwy. Being 6'1" the cabin has more than enough room. The back seat is also very spacious. Simply said I love the car and at $31,999 the price was right.
