...the interior in my girlfriend's LaCrosse is nicer than that Genesis. I just love the "I-Drive" knock-off. Going to a Hyundai dealer for a luxury car is like expecting filet mignon and Dom Perignon at McDonald's. I can imagine the luxury buyer negotiating the terms for a Genesis in the cubicle next to one in which a credit-challenged dude who works part-time at Wal~Mart is begging for financing on a stripped Accent. |

by far the nicest Hyunday interior ever. I still doubt anyone will ever cross shop a Genesis with similarly priced Acura and Infiniti. I mean a $36k hyunday??? Koreans themselves may do so, but anyone else? I doubt it. This is similar to the Japanese. The toyota crown majesta or dynasty cost an amazing $80k+ (when you convert the currency). Even Toyota reps think noone else but the locals will pull that much for a toyota. They're being sensible, I'm not sure Hyunday is doing the same.

Replying to: m4d_cow (Aug 10, 2008 2:38 am) While I might agree this will take time, I saw the car up close and a $36K Gen will get my money in a heartbeat faster then a $46K DTS.   Regards, OW Regards, OW

Replying to: circlew (Aug 09, 2008 6:20 pm) Genesis a luxury car? Yeah, I'll be seeing these ads on television marketed toward the underemployed and credit-challenged between Jerry Springer and Maury Povich: "$99 down, $99 a month on a new Hyundai Genesis at the Cherry Hill Triplex!" |

Replying to: circlew (Aug 10, 2008 4:39 am) The Genesis looks like a Maxima with Pep Boys wheels and a Chinese-designed front-end. I guess this is what a Chinese knock-off of a Lexus ES would look like. You'd pay $36K for a Hyundai? It isn't worth $16K to me. |

Replying to: circlew (Aug 10, 2008 4:39 am) I can completely believe that and so will anyone one who knows your preferences. But then again you are in our own reality.  Escalade still sold almost 3000 units in July. That is 36,000 units per year. While not the same as last year there are still lots of buyers out there in this $4 / gallon gas and drop in overall economy.
