I said I was not looking for a fight because I thought if I posted any criticism that someone would get their feelings hurt and lash out...omg. This is why I do not post unless I feel it is something important to me. I really enjoy power features in my cars. My wife is very short and uses the power pedals and our driveway is butted up with our neighbors so I have to get close to his truck and I often use my power folding mirrors...... why am I explaining this I am really sorry if I offended anyone I was just disappointed and made the mistake of voicing it on this forrum...lesson learned...again. I was really looking forward to trading UP now I am not so sure Thats all...really...I promise...until I forget and do it again so sorry in advance...sorry

What I find interesting is that there is only a $2,000 price difference between a loaded V6 and a loaded V8. In the BMW/Infiniti/Lexus world a V8 adds at least $5,000 to the price. I think there will be many more buyers opting for the V8 at that price difference and they will be very hard to get. This is based on what I have read saying that the majority of Genesis produced will be V6 (like the majority of BMW/Lexus/Infiniti). Dealers will probably add an extra markup to the V8 and discount the V6 more aggressively.

In the days of $4 and $5 gas? The performance difference of the V8 compared to the V6 doesn't seem to be all that great to take the FE hit.

We've moved to the "permanent" location on the Sedans board. If you look at the top of the page, you'll see "you are here." If you click on the link that says "Hyundai Genesis," you can add all of the Genesis discussions to your watched items, if you wish to do so, by "watching" the entire folder.
 
Good luck, and be nice to your new hosts, pat & karen!

You didn't offend me. I was just pointing out that the features whose absence you were lamenting were either aimed at a small demographic, or generally not found in cars in this price range.
 
You just so happen to be someone who wants those features. As far as the power pedal feature goes, if the Genesis has a power tilt and telescope steering wheel and power seats, that should make the need for power pedals moot. Power pedals are usually only offered in cars that don't have the power steering wheel. As far as the mirrors go, you can always fold them by hand. The only cars I have ever had with power-folding mirrors have been luxury cars or SUVs costing upwards of $50K. I'm sure if Hyundai thought people would pay that much for the Genesis they would have included that feature and probably a few more.
 
I guess what Im saying is that if those are the only faults you can find with this car even you must admit that its a pretty strong offering. If you can find a car with all the features of the Genesis plus those you mentioned in the same price range, congratulations and please tell us about it.

We appreciate your viewpoint, we really do. Keep it coming and ignore those comments that you find less than useful.
 
That's something we all should do, actually.

Hey guys! I've been a member of Edmunds for a while but this is one of my first posts. I usually just read the posts and don't comment, but I am really excited about the Genesis. Its seems like a heck of a car for the price. We're talking a 5-series, Infiniti M type of car for 10 grand less. Thats impressive.
 
-BUT-
 
I still believe that a lot of people are going to have sticker shock when they see the price of a loaded Genesis. $40,000 for a fully equipped V6 model? Ouch. And $33,000 just to get into one? If you look at the big picture, the Genesis is a huge bargain, but I just don't see too many people paying that much for this car. Then again, I could be completely wrong.
 
Personally, I'm waiting until 2011 to find a low-mileage '09 Genesis. If its like other Hyundais, I'll be getting a steal. And I'll still have the 5 yr/60,000 mile powertrain warranty. I can't wait...

I agree with Jason 25 a GS OR 5 series would cost 10,000 more with standard equipment, the basic 5 series does not even have leather seating surfaces as standard equipment.
 
I'm gonna wait until 2012 for a 2009 genesis V8 or a 2010 V6 fully loaded with a CPO warranty.
 
I only drive two times a week so gas prices are not issue for me.
