confusing 'luxurious' with 'luxury' again, are we?
A BMW branded product can be 'luxury' with rollup windows - very few marques can make that claim. And no I could not tell you if any car was truly a luxury car WITHOUT knowing who made it.

I don't know why you guys keep arguing with captain? He obviously is closed minded and you're not going to convince him that the Genesis is a luxury vehicle, which it is without a doubt. I have sat in one while looking into buying a Sonata, bought a Ford Fusion by the way, and if thats not luxury I must be some backward hillbilly. If he wants to go out and spend 10K more so he can feel better about himself then it's his loss. If I could ever convince my wife that we don't need to replace her Mountaineer with another SUV or crossover, I would definitely consider the Genesis. Maybe it's because I can't afford to spend more that 40K for a car nor would I want to waste that kind of money on a vehicle..

If Hyundai bought out Mercedes-Benz and changed the name of the car from Mercedes-Benz to Mercedes-Hyundai would the car named Mercedes-Hyundai now be considerd a luxury vehicle?

From what I know, the VG will continue to stay FWD, as will the Azera. The current Amanti shares more with the former Hyundai XG than the Azera. The size of the current Amanti is larger than the Azera if I am not mistaken, albeit only slightly.

Give me an appropriately butt kissing 'Genesis' dealer., a price perhaps $10k or $15k MORE than what it is, then I give you a true luxury car
 
So I'd guess the Genesis is too "cheap"
 
And let me see if I understood you correctly, anything under $50K is not considered to be a "true" luxury car? If that's your argument, then that would go against your other points.

Hyundai Genesis - How is it doing so far? by joe97

In a recent interivew, a Hyundai US exec. stated 40% of US sales (trade-in) come from buyers having previously owned vehicles from BMW, MB, Lexus, Porsche.
 
Also, 90% of the owners come from other brands. In other words, first-time Hyundai owners.

You think he's talking about the Genesis specifically - or Hyundai overall?
You really believe that? Yeah, THE place to go to find a good preowned Bimmer, your local Hyundai used car lot! There are many many folks out there that are becoming first time Hyundai owners but I'll submit to you that they are trading in Chevys, Fords and even Toyotas and Hondas but very very few German cars. Just a guess , of course....

For some of these cars the advertising dollars seems to have fallen off the face of the Earth....
