Replying to: tmtdr (Oct 15, 2009 5:43 am) Cant figure out if I would get a better deal on the leftover 2009 inventory lease or 2010 lease? It depends on the MF/Residual value. You would think that if the MF was the same for an 09 and a 10 that the 10 would lease out better having a higher residual. The MFs have been low since the intro of the Genesis and I believe there is still $1000 lease cash (make sure that the dealer isn't hiding this). It basically covers your acquision fee and DMV. Have them work out both #s, keep in mind too that the MSRP on the 2010 will be a little higher with the addition of laser cruise and a few other features.

Replying to: tmtdr (Oct 15, 2009 5:43 am) That sounds more like a purchase payment to me than a lease payment for $38.5K, even w/ nothing down.

Replying to: fedlawman (Oct 11, 2009 2:10 pm) Hi, Fed, hope you and yours are well. That's a fantastic price for those that can still pay over $40K for a car these days.... Regards, OW Replies to this message: fedlawman (Oct 15, 2009 2:24 pm)

Replying to: circlew (Oct 15, 2009 12:49 pm) Yup, I was sorely tempted and I tried to talk myself into it. But I came to the same conclusion - $40,000 is a great bargain, but it's $40,000 I didn't need to spend.
#5600 of 5696 Excellent website by carolinabob Oct 16, 2009 (10:02 am)
I recommend anyone considering, or owning, a Genesis check out this site. IMO they give the most balanced review and even break down the road test, scores, etc. by model -separeately for 3.8, 4.6 and coupe. They also update it periodically though it may be hard to tell sometimes-you have to check the scores on the road tests. http://consumerguideauto.howstuffworks.com/2009-hyundai-genesis-trim-options.htm- Replies to this message: houdini1 (Oct 16, 2009 10:40 am) carolinabob (Oct 16, 2009 1:00 pm) houdini1 (Oct 16, 2009 1:18 pm) bobad (Oct 16, 2009 3:48 pm)

Replying to: carolinabob (Oct 16, 2009 10:02 am) Yes, that is a very good site IMO. These cars and grouped with and compared to their "peers". I noted the cars that the Genesis was being compared to and the top 2 were the Lexus LS 460 and the Mercedes S class, both of which can cost over $100,000. They also picked the Genesis as one of their top picks, along with the Audi A8, another car that pushes 100 grand. Pretty good company and a very good showing for the Genesis. Apparently Consumers Guide certainly thinks the Genesis is a luxury car. Thanks for the link !!

Replying to: houdini1 (Oct 16, 2009 10:40 am) Actually this is another confusing area on the site. Under some categories, they list Genesis, M-B E350, Lexus ES, etc. as luxury cars, but they really classify them as mid-size premium cars. They have also classifed the Genesis as mid-size and large at different times. Genesis may be a luxury car (whatever that is), but Hyundai is not a luxury car company based on my experiences with their regional and national offices, as well as the dealers.

IMO there is only one luxury dealership...and that is Lexus. I have owned BMWs and Mercedes in the past and their service and attitude leaves a lot to be desired. Audi is certainly not noted for their customer friendliness either. Must be a German thing. IMO that is why Lexus has obliterated them here in the U.S. for the last 15 years or so.

Perhaps you're getting "luxury" and "prestige" confused. Genesis is a luxury car, making Hyundai a luxury car company.
