My cousin has always hated Hyundai's. He has always said they were the worst and ugliest cars he has ever seen. Now he has a Limited 2005 Toyota Avalon with major transmission problems and has finally broken down and told me how much he wants to traid in his Avalon for the Genesis. He loves the Genesis, he talks about it all the time. They truly have changed from what they once were.

I think, xj220 should be korean like me or in korea now.
 
This info came from the korean newspaper after interviewing the chief of hyundai powertrain center. What the chief said was they finished the development of 6sp automatic transmission this august and it's alread in the production. And they are still developing 8sp and plan to produce in 2010.

"Hyundai moved nearly 1200 Genesi in October"
 
Where oh where? I live in a large auto market (So CA) and drive Ventura, LA and Orange counties weekly. I have not seen one Genesis on the road. The only Genesis I have actually seen, (6) were at the Thousand Oaks dealer that performs service on my Azera.

Here you go....
 
The 2009 Hyundai Genesis’ six-speed automatic transmission is one smooth-shifting gearbox, but Hyundai’s not content to rest on its laurels. For 2010, Genesis V-8 models will be mated to an all-new eight-speed transmission.
 
Unlike the present six-speed transmission offered with the 4.6-liter ‘Tau’ V-8, the eight-speed transmission is not a ZF design, but one designed and fabricated entirely by Hyundai. Though not yet announced, we’re betting the V-6 Genesis model will stay with the six-speed automatic, which comes from Aisin.
 
The eight-speed matches the number of speeds offered on the Lexus LS, beats that of most Mercedes-Benz models by one, and will match that of the BMW 5- and 7-series, when those ranges begin using ZF’s eight-speed transmission.

Discounts on Genesis by backy

Just got an email from Towne Hyundai re discounts on the Genesis, here is part of it:
 
"$1,900.00 under invoice on all V6 Genesis"
From now until the end of November, we will be discounting our V6 Hyundai Genesis $1,900.00 under invoice. For an example a 2009 Hyundai Genesis V6 equipt with both Premium and Technology Package, has a MSPR of $40,000.00. But with your $1,900.00 in savings your price will be $35,713.00, that's over $4,200.00 in savings.

 
I guess that means one could pick up a base Genesis for under $30k + T&L.

Something to keep an eye on, but considering the cars aren't even over here...nothing we can do anything about at this point. Personally, I hope I'm never in a situation where I have to find out whether the air bags work or not.

I found the speculative tone of the article rather nasty. How do we know what actually happened?

The media at it's best! We don't know exactly what happened, we don't even know if it was a full production model car even though they come out in Korea before they come here.
 
Personally, I'm not worried about it.
