Looks like BMW, Honda, and Lexus had a massive orgy and this was the result. Which isn’t all that bad, I also find it interesting there is no badging on the front.

hopfully it doesn’t have the same hyundai “feel”

It seemed when ever we’d get a higher mileage hyundai (i’m talking 50K+) the car drove like shit, auto trannys would shift so hard from 1st to 2nd and manual trannys…the clutch would slip super bad and the syncros were already going.

Looks like a step in the right direction for Hyundai. :tup: Between this and the new RWD tibron I like the moves they are making.

slow for a luxury sedan, no i think not…368hp for a hyundai i think is a huge leap… but to each there own i guess some will never be satisified.

“Hyundai says the combination is enough to get the V8 Genesis from zero to 60 mph in less than 6 seconds running on regular unleaded gas.”

OK we had a thread about “fast”, what is slow?  
5.9?

i personally think a 4000lb Hyundai luxury sedan leaping from 0-60 in 5.x sec is fast, being the Trailblazer takes 6.3 sec to get there! And this is a HYUNDAI and will have a 10yr/100k warantee!
