You are in the Hyundai Genesis Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
Comparison Test: 2009 Hyundai Genesis 4.6 vs. 2008 Lexus GS 350 - Hyundai isn't shy about its targets for the Genesis. "While Genesis will compete for customers with cars like Lexus ES, Chrysler 300 and Cadillac CTS," the company stated in a press release about the car's pricing, "Genesis' performance capabilities and luxury features are comparable to sedans costing tens of thousands of dollars more."

Replying to: jeffreid (Sep 10, 2008 2:25 pm)  If that's the basis of comparison  , I think the Hyundai (XXXXXXX) has more similarities with the other 300 , More over they have similar pricing and dicounts( cash backs) A 3.8L Genesis weighs 3748 lbs. A Chrysler 300 Signature Series 3762 Lbs A Genesis is 195.9in long A Chrysler 300 Signature Series 196.8 A Genesis has a 115.6 in wheelbase A Chrysler 300 Signature Series 120.00 A Genesis 3.8 MSRP $32250.00 A Chrysler 300 Signature Series $ 32765.00 A Genesis 3.8 Passenger Volume 109..4 Cu.ft A Chrysler 300 Signature Series Passenger Volume 106.6 Cu.ft even the caravan has a wheel base of 121 and overall length of 202 doesn't this whole comparison sound unrealistic. Lets not compare apples with oranges just for the sake of comparison |

Replying to: satyarg (Sep 10, 2008 7:04 pm) While you may think Genesis vs. Lexus comparo is unrealistic, others share different opinions. Edmunds certainly thought the Genesis was a worthy competitor, as has other professionals and consumers. Enjoy your Lexus.

Replying to: satyarg (Sep 10, 2008 7:04 pm) I was simply putting some hard numbers to your off the cuff remarks. I'm sorry that you feel the need to justify your Lexus purchase by putting down another model that it competes with. Most of the products that Lexus puts out are very fine autos on their own merit. A badge does not mean superiority however. I would also like to take a stab here that you have never been in or driven a Genesis. If that is true it sure makes it hard to give much credit to your ramblings. Anyway, again, enjoy your Lexus. I'm sure it is a fine automobile. But really, what is the point of trashing a product that you know nothing about? One last thing. If you had ever been in both a Genesis and a 300, you would know what a poor comparison they really are. The Genesis is head and shoulders above the 300 in terms of interior appointments and ride/quiet. The Genesis is much more like a, um, let me see here, oh yeah, a Lexus. |
