Replying to: paisan (Mar 10, 2008 6:38 pm) The Genesis is priced $15-20K below what it is supposedly worth for that very reason.

Here's Hyundai's price point on the Genesis packages. Not sure if this is allowed so please forgive me if this violates the rules. http://www.autospies.com/images/users/Agent001/Hyundai-Genesis-Pricing/SNAG-0000- %203-10-2008.jpg

Replying to: lookylou1 (Mar 10, 2008 6:31 pm) I don't think the idea is to hide anything from the public...look at the Enclave for instance. One year it's up on the hands-off display, then it's in show rooms and it gets rave reviews. I think it's more about keeping the mystique going...show a little, but not everything. Make potential buyers go to the show rooms and check it out fully...then there will be a greater chance of one buying. As far as the Sonata goes...don't know what Hyundai is thinking.

Replying to: lookylou1 (Mar 10, 2008 7:18 pm) I find it interesting when people complain (sometimes in the same post) about prices going up on Hyundais and their historically lower resale value compared to Honda and Toyota. You won't see jumps in resale value without corresponding increases in up-front price. Money still doesn't magically appear out of thin air, no matter how much we wish it would. We don't know the actual pricing of the Genesis yet, so to say it's priced $15-20k below what it's worth is premature.

Replying to: backy (Mar 11, 2008 6:08 am) The Camaro hasn't hit the streets yet, neither has the Challenger. As far as Honda goes...would you want a lesser trimmed cloth interior vehicle open to thousands of folks climbing in and out of it??? I think not. There is plenty that goes on at the shows, but again...it's nothing to take exception to. It's just a case of not wanting to tip their hand and make potential buyers want to go take a look at it as well as maybe even a test drive.

Replying to: allmet33 (Mar 11, 2008 6:20 am) Didn't seem to be a problem for Toyota (base Camry on the floor), Hyundai (base Sonata), Mercury (base Milan), Chevy (base Malibu), Saturn (base Aura) etc. What I suspect is that Honda realizes that its EX-L cars look much nicer inside than the LX and LX-P, so they decided to put their best foot foward. I appreciated being able to check out the base models of the competition, however. And although the Genesis was on a rotating pedestal, all of its doors were open so we could at least get a good look inside.

Replying to: bigelm (Mar 10, 2008 8:36 pm) Great info, so let's hope the Genesis makes it to the dealers priced in these ranges. If the fit and finish is there and the car drives well, I will spring for a V8 version. At $38-40K the car will be a bargain very similar in value to the original Lexus LS400 back in 1989. Now then will the resale values continue to improve as the product has?
