Wonderful car, I'm very happy with my purchase. Makes it seem like a waste to purchase a BMW, Mercedes, Lexus or Infiniti for thousands more! I have the Genesis badge/wing on the trunk, and people ask me is that a "Bently". Looks and performs stride for stride with the premium luxury automobiles mentioned before. Well worth the $42K..BMW 550 will perform better but at a $25,000 premium. One of my co- workers owns one, and it is not worth the extra $$$. I took him for a ride in the Genesis, and he couldn't believe it was a Hyundai and the price I paid for it!

This is an update of my original review. I have the 3.8 V6 with premium package and all available options. I've had the car for 9 mths and it now has 13K miles of semi- aggressive highway & city driving experience. I still love this car! And here's the best part, since I've owned the car the only service required has been scheduled maintenance. No rattles, no signs of wearing, and still fun to drive. In the snow (we had an 18 in. snow storm last week), it handled better than expected. I did struggle up a steep hill that wasn't plowed well (4" of loose snow on road) but otherwise the car did fine. I don't have any issues sports handling - but the ride could be smoother. Buy this car!
What a GREAT car

Have been waiting for 3 months to write this... Have had the car for over 3 months now, over 10,000KM driven already. Can't wait to drive it everyday. The acceleration is silky smooth. It has tons of power,(375HP) tons of torque, it handles GREAT! I'm amazed how good this car brakes! Interior is very upscale, fit and finish is superb. IMO, Tech package is worth it. Gotta stop putting so many positives cause you won't believe what I'm saying. Don't try this car unless you're ready to buy it. Countless times people asking me what car this is. Amazed at how many rubber necks while driving are looking at the car...I have put the winged logos in the back and front. Hyundai...GREAT job
Outstanding car

Hyundai has done just about everything right on the Genesis. There have been complaints about the ride. I find that tire pressure is the problem (and maybe the Dunlop tire as well). The techs at the dealer or tire store will put the tire pressure up to 35 psi. This will produce a rough ride. If you reduce the pressure to 32-33 psi, the ride will be about like a Mercedes E class. I find this to be about right. 30 psi would be even better but the low tire pressure system will signal low tire pressure if it gets below 30 and you have to run it up to 35 to reset the system and get the low pressure message off. Buy a good tire pressure gage and set the pressure yourself.

I have had my car 3 days. What a wonderful car. White Satin Pearl with Beige leather interior.This car is a beauty with great technology. Form and function at the highest level. Can't comment on mileage or reliability as it only 3 days old. I'm still going thru the manuals(they are excellent).
