Shoot - and I was hopeful for the Genesis. Unfortunately I can't wait until a new model or even a mid-model refresh (to address these 2 QC/design issues) to come out before I buy. Back to Toyota & Honda. Back again, to convince us of how sub-par the Genesis is? And where are these "several opinions" about the Genesis' ride? All I've seen are the same people repeatedly posting the same garbage in different forums. Are those the opinions you're referring to? PLEASE. I know a futile mud-flinging campaign when I see one, and I know I'm not the only one. |

Just a follow-up to my original comment. Ya gotta go with the editors  Automobile Mag. Fix the suspension and the 6 cyl Genesis sedan is the value winner....

They find it easier to imagine nefarious plots rather than admit that some people have had a complaint or concern with the ride of the Genesis. They also can't read or hold more than one piece of info in their brains at a time. There are indeed several people who have made many posts (it's called a dialouge), but there are also many individual comments about suspension concerns - many people only posted once or twice until the bullies drove them away or they got their questions answered and moved on. |

Time to wade in here! I have had my Genesis since last August and, yes, the ride is a little stiffer then the Infinti Q45 or the Lexus LS400 that I have previously driven but certainly not unbearable. I don't know for sure but the ride is probably more like the other "sports" sedans being sold by BMW or Mercedes. Based on value this car is perfect. It was $20,000 less then the Q45 but actually bigger on the inside in every way. Couple this with the fantastic warranty and you can not go wrong buying this car.

sheltonzz, I feel the same way...I think the car is perfect...at least for me. I got my Genesis V8/Tech almost 2 weeks ago and am thrilled to death of it! I traded my Azera for it. YES the suspension is stiffer but it's a good stiff and to me is sporty! It handles really well in curves and turns and performance is awesome. I also keep telling my wife it's got too much power. Boy this car can move! If I had to find something wrong about this car TO ME it's the tire noise! The Dunlops aren't very good tires IMO. The mileage you get on the freeway is awesome...I average anywhere between 27 - 29 MPG. City driving is another story, Between 16 - 18 MPG. Overall I'd say that's pretty dam good considering it being a V8. Regards, A happy owner |

Replying to: JohnNW (Apr 14, 2009 7:04 am) The issue has popped up often because 1 fellow brought it up a hundred times all over the Internet. 1 problem reported 100 times is not as significant as 100 problems brought up 1 time.
