Another Genesis review just appeared over at Autoblog. Article is not as smooth as the one here at edmunds but very informative and full of very good insights. So far from what I've read, it makes me anxious to drive this car.

would stake the farm and the wife that NO Genesis' will sell for over $40K with the incentives and discounts Hyundai will offer on this car. People will sign on the dotted line for a loaded one in the mid $30's and the Genesis will also cannibalize Azera sales. One has to wonder if the Azera, now nearing its redesign, will even make it long-term.
Azera's and Veracruz's are selling $5-7k below msrp all day long. Enter Genesis.
 
Well, in response to that, we all know It's a competive market. The local Honda store in my area is advertising $4000-5000 off all 2008 Pilot and Odyessy minvans.
 
With 375hp, I can see people paying low 42-44k for a top of the line Genesis. The V6 mid 30's loaded all the way up.
 
That same car is 15-20k more with a Lexus badge on it.
 
I sat inside of a 80k Lexus 460, and the interior was nothing to write home about. I felt it was a really large Toyota Camry that was all decked out.

If you are looking for discounts or rebates on the Genesis soon after launch... good luck!! It will take awhile for the initially limited supply to catch up with demand. Until that happens, I don't see discounts or rebates in the picture.

Oh well, there goes the "sub-$30k" promise...
 
About the $38k for the V8, is that the fully loaded or base version? If that's the base then it's guaranteed that a fully loaded V8 Genesis would break the $40k barrier (which A LOT of Hyundai faithfuls think it wouldn't).

Thanks. Looks like options will drive up both considerably past expected pricing advantage IMHO. Too many alternatives in the $38 - $45K luxo sedan category vs. year one of a new marquee.

The <30K was based on the 3.3L initial projection and from corporate (HMC), HMA and US dealers didn't want the 3.3L, frankly... Oh just a hunch...the weak US dollars had a lot to do with the pricing. Great value 30K or 33k.
