was NEVER a hyundai fan until they released the genesis coupe
they not only look nice, but the numbers they put out are amazing

makes me consider a coupe genesis over any other new car competing at its price

What the hell badge is that? :S

The one thing that puts me off from Hyundai is their badge/logo. Truly despise it. Other than that I'm liking whats going on with them right now. Will be interesting to see where they'll be 5 years from now.

That truly is a sexy ride. Resembles Mercedes a lot imo. I think I may consider that to be my next ride aside from the honda's.


Its a transformer badge

Hyundai is smart for copying Mercedes no one can say mercs look like crap due to the high price tag so when your brand doesn't really have an image yet... do the next best thing... steal one.

blacked out grille looks best, and those KDM tail lights, WOW.

I'll go out on a limb and say they're one of the best looking tail lights i've seen.

I'd want awd on this... looked up the performance... 6.6 0-60. and realy roomy on the inside too. It's $3k more that 2.4L, 6AT + paddles, 18s, sport suspension STD

also, only hybrid will come with Panorama roof.

Recently I had a chance to drive a Sonata rental back to back with the Camry. The Sonata is better in just about every single way. It even feels more confident at high speed.

If I'm in the market for a mid-sized sedan, it's a no brainer that I'd choose Sonata.

how is the reliability on new hyundai models lately? do you still have to wait 1-2 years, or are they pretty good right out of the box?
