Replying to: ksmigel (Sep 02, 2008 6:59 pm) I would like to drive a G, and E-class, a Genesis, a XF, and a GS back to back to see what I REALLY think. Just because I work at a Hyundai dealership, that doesn't mean that my money isn't MY money............ Anyhow, I stand behind my comment about the road noise in the Azera. All I can think about are the test drives that I would be on, and feel really uncomfortable with the tire roar and such that seemed to be all over the cabin. I have noticed a huge difference with the Genesis. Sorry if this offends any of you. It is not meant as a slight or anything, it is just my observations. |

Replying to: ateixeira (Sep 04, 2008 7:04 am) 'Supposed to' is the keyword here. The moronic dealership which sold me my Azera didn't & I drove for about 2-3 months with 51psi instead of 32psi. I used to check air pressure on my previous cars every week. But since this Azera had a fancy TPMS, I got complacent & thought TPMS would let me know if the pressure was below or above spec. Well, TPMS tells you only when it is underinflated (20% below). So, keep checking your tire pressure every other week folks!

I would think that our tire pressures should be done right most of the time. The Azera is a well built car, I just think that you get a better car for the money with the Genesis. |

Replying to: 101649 (Sep 04, 2008 4:15 am) The major US publications have had great things to say about this car, and the consumers as well. Is it a perfect car? Of course not, but the long list of pluses have far outshined the small areas of drawbacks. Naturally, just like every other vehicle model out there, this isn't for everyone; some may like it, some may not. One thing is clear, however, this car, has the caliber to compete with other players in its class, and it's drawing that very attention. |

Replying to: joe97 (Sep 04, 2008 7:18 pm) The ride is the biggest criticism of the Genesis by quite a few reviews in magazines. Some of them have said it's way to harsh, transmits road imperfections through the steering wheel, and Automobile Magazine in its August 2008 review was really critical, saying that unlike other entry level luxury-sport cars, the Genesis's 'suspension fell apart on back roads.'
