Coming out of a Toyota with 176K miles my expectations were huge. My old car never had so much as a squeak or rattle. After test driving BMW, Acura, Lexus and others, Hyundai earned my business because the Genesis is every bit the car it is represented to be. As far as I can see, they didn't cut any corners. I work in an industry where image is very important and this car gets tremendous compliments from clients, valet workers and strangers.
A Whole Lot More Than Price Indicates

This car is often compared to BMW 5 series and E series MB's, but it's probably closest in size, engine type, features, and overall class to Infiniti's M35. Closest until price is compared. At about $10K less, it's the automotive bargain of the year, perhaps decade. Like others I looked at and drove BMW, MB, Audi, Lexus, Infiniti and others, all of which are a lot more money. Believe me, none are quieter, more comfortable, more solid feeling, or handle better in every day traffic. This Hyundai is that good. I can only provide a warning. DO NOT DRIVE THIS CAR, if you are not ready to buy. You will fall in love with an affordable automotive experience you may not have known existed.

Excellent vehicle! I've never been a "Label-looker" so I shop for the goodies at a reasonable price. This car delivers and then some. The ride is comfortable yet responsive. The interior is ample. I'm built like an NFL defensive end and I'm very comfortable. The amenities are numerous, you get a lot with the standard package. I have the Premium Plus and I'm very happy. The trunk is spacious. The V-6 290 bhp engine is as smooth as butter on a hot muffin and you can cruise at 80 mph without nary a concern. An All-Wheel drive version would be too sweet! The stereo system is very nice, audiophile worthy. A great buy if you're into affordable luxury and you tend not to follow the "label".

Bad ride hard steering need 6 way and air cooled passenger seat. Dunlop tires to much road feel and balance problems. Drivers seat to small not enough thigh support. Nav system pain to learn. Transmission has a slapping sound when stepping off and on the gas.
Great Value - Luxury on a Budget

I've had my 2009 3.8 Genesis with tech package for about 6 weeks. Have not seen the dealer since I bought - it was delivered with no defects. The interior is pure luxury and the Lexicon sound system is unbelievable. The ride is whisper quiet. The suspension has been a topic of discussion for many. In some circumstances, there is a little more bounce than I'd expect and in others I cannot believe how smooth the car handles. I only seem to notice the suspension at slow speed on uneven pavement. The car handles great and is very roomy. I am getting about 23 mpg on regular gas with a mix of highway and city driving. This is a luxury car at a bargain price.
