our only design complaints are the old-fashioned trunk hinges that can crush luggage.
 
What are they talking about??? The hinges are fully enclosed and can't touch anything. Maybe this was a production change?

You do not show a source or a URL for this.
    It is interesting that one of the car magazines, and it may be this one, shows different information in the magazine from what is on the website. That further confuses people trying to find valid information.
     I believe it was Automobile Magazine in the magazine that said in one place that the suspension needs to be revised. In another issue, it said two groups of testers-those that hate the ride and those that accept the ride because of all the other good features. Neither of these showed up on the website though.

Genesis/E350 back-to-back by bwia

On my way to work this morning I was driving behind a Mercedes E350 4matic and a Genesis sedan. They were both black and looked eerily alike, but the paint finish on the E-class looked more exquisite and luminous.
 
The cars created a stir because everybody was comparing the two. From a distance you couldn't tell the difference but up close the E-class certainly looked more upscale and refined. Never having seen a Genesis on the road I must say I was very impressed and probably will drop by my local dealer this weekend for a guest drive.

"The cars created a stir because everybody was comparing the two."
 
I'm trying to guess where you live where crowds of people would gather by the roadside staring and pointing with mouths agape at the appearance of a Genesis and E-Class.

This may be a loose association but I noticed my son making the same comparison while walking behind a mother and her daughter the other day. You know Benjamen Franklin once said when choosing a girlfriend it is best the choose an older woman compared with a younger one because the older woman comes with a lot less aggravation and if you put a barrel over her head she looks just like the other woman from behind. He really said that!! So maybe we just need to put a barrel over the front empanage of the Genesis and you'll think you're the owner of a MB without the agravation of the extra 20K!

A little hyperbole yes but the cars did get a lot of attention. The location was the Longwood Medical Area of Boston where one is accustomed to seeing high end cars driven by doctors and other medical professionals. So a Genesis seemed a little out of place or people thought it was a new MB. Nonetheless, it was good PR for Hyundai.

That's cool. The Genesis does have some E-Class styling cues, as well as some BMW 5-series lines. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, after all.

Well you could say when seen from the end the high end is the same as the low end, or in the case of my son above the younger empanage is always higher end compared to the older one which is usually a tail dragger. Or that in terms of comparing the Genesis to the MB the end is an end in itself. The End.
