Used 2009 Hyundai Genesis Consumer Reviews
BEST LUX CAR FOR $$$
very good all around car , nice exterior and interior
Terrible ride
At first glance it looks like a lot for the money but on closer inspection the interior is cheaply constructed, you cannot transfer the phone book from your cell phone and the seats have no real lateral support. But all of this pales in the face of the terrible suspension. The ride is rough and jittery with a tendency towards porpoising on almost all surfaces, even those that appear to be smooth and or recently paved. I would test drive the heck out of a potential purchase and if you experience the slightest bit of what I have described, pass on it and look at something else. No other car that I have driven in recent years, of any price point, has these awful ride characteristics.
Jittery suspension
Have owned my 4.6 for four months. it is a great car and excellent value for the money compared to MB,BMW and Lexus. I've put 6500 miles on the car and the only thing that I don't like about the car is the jittery, bumpy ride on uneven roads, it is fine on the highways and on smooth streets. I live in South Florida and the secondary roads here are pretty good compared to areas that get bad weather, however any imperfection on a road and this car goes into convulsions. I've complained to the dealer and basically the said there is nothing they can do about it.
Great Car
A better car in all respects to my 06 Lincoln LS. I chose this car over Acura, MB, and Buicks I test drove. The car is a deal even at $33k-$37K for the V6 model. Black and Silver look great in this car. No cassette player- this is 2008. I have a 2000 Elantra with over 200K miles and it has been problem free.
You need to get one
This car is really nice to drive and looks great. I had corvette, porsche 911 and have ES 330 and LS 460. So, I am telling from the true experiences. Navigation system is very easy to use and great. Everything is simple to set up and blue tooth quality for the phone system is outstanding. Sound quality of the hands-free phone system is beyond my expectation. I will have to think very hard before I buy another LS 460. Dealer needs to improve long way before they catch up with Lexus on customer relations.
