"I have owned my Genesis for about 3 weeks now and I truly do enjoy this car. It is very luxurious and fun to drive. It is comfortable, very good performance (ride and speed). I love the styling, the interior and exterior. It is loaded with extras for convenience and comfort. My Genesis was a Certified Pre-Own purchase. Hyundai has an excellent warranty. I gave it a 4 star on performance only because a Genesis 5.0 passed me."

"I am very impressed with my Genesis. It is the quietest car I have ever driven. It handles great and has plenty of power. It has Dunlap tires and it rides better than the new ones we tried. The assist on the cruise control has already spared us at least one accident by braking while commuting on the interstate. We both love driving the car."

"I liked the car from a far and driving in the front seat it got even better. It has power to burn, comfort for days, and when I drive it I get stares like its the prettiest girl on the street. It's stylish with all the leather and wood for luxury. I bought in NC and I got great gas mileage all the way back to TN. I feel rich behind the wheel but it didn't take all my money to get there."

"This is a really nice car if you never drive it. Style is nice interior is first class and the V-8 is very nice and 26mpg is not bad. The ride is so harsh it is the worst car I ever had. I swear it jumps when you drive over a paint stripe. Anything more than a paint stripe and the rear end starts to hop around. The worst beater I ever had drove better than this car. Sad my ride to work was killing me and had to dump it with a 10k loss. If they ever fix that suspension I would give it another look. Oh the radio was the best I ever had and that includes a Vette and Caddy."

"I've only owned the Genesis for 2 months now, but have been pleased to-date. I did a great deal of research beforehand, and everything I read/heard has been accurate. The car has solid acceleration and braking. The ride is smooth and quiet. The electronics/audio system have met and exceeded my expectations to-date. 1 small mechanical glitch, and it could have been caused by the fuel. I'm still undecided on the blame, but the car has performed admirably otherwise."

"I love my Genesis alot very roomy inside and very comfortable. If you don't want to spend alot of money on a Mercedes or BMW. I get of lot of people breaking their necks and questions about what kind of car it is. Handles very well, ride is smooth, and and the power is their. The gas mileage is good for I get any where from 25 to 28 mpg @ 75mph. If your looking for a car the Genesis is worth a look."

"We were about to buy an M35 by Infiniti but decided to look at the Genesis. It was the only pre-owned we could find in Houston. All the reliable reviews we could find placed the Hyundai above most of the luxury cars we had looked at. After seeing and driving the Genesis we decided to buy it. It was everything the M35 was but for much less. I believe the car is undervalued but that will change quickly as the public gets over the fact that Hyundai builds a better more reliable luxury car than any of the luxury car manufacturers out there now"

"Test drove BMW 3/5 series, Audi A4/6, Mercedes C/E, Infiniti G/M, Lexus IS/E/G, and bought the Genesis. If dollars were equal, I would now own a loaded BMW 535, A6, Infiniti M37, or MB E350. The challenge became the incredible value of the not-so-prestigious Hyundai! Heated and Cooled seats (not ventilated... COOLED!), back-up camera, Lexicon sound system (AMAZING!!!), HID directional lights, auto-hold brakes, adaptive cruise control... if you can live without brand prestige, the value of this car is off the charts! 20,000 miles, zero problems, accelerates very strong, drives great, and I love it. No regrets at all. Would absolutely buy it again"

"I now understand why JD Powers rated the Genesis the most reliable mid-level Luxury Sedan. Styling, comfort, features, it's perfect. I don't miss the Infiniti M-45 I traded in for it."

"I'm 57 and have owned many new cars in the past 20 years. I've had Acuras, Hondas, Chevys and VWs to name a few. This Genesis 4.6 V8 is by far the best car I've owned. The performance is great! The ESC (electronic stability control) prevents you from burning the tires off, even when you turn it off it still has an effect. With that said,when you mash the gas it goes! The power at cruising speed when you pass a car is amazing. It handles very good. Has good feel of the road yet very comfy. The bells and whistles are really convenient. I'm not going to name them all but with the V8 the car comes loaded with all the extras. The 17 speaker Lexicon stereo is amazing. You will find yourself buying DVD audio and DTS CDs because when you play one in this system it truly blows you away how good it sounds!! This is better than anything I've ever heard in a car, aftermarket included. The joystick is located in a good spot and is easy to use. The navigation is spot on and is better than most to input locations. The controls are user friendly and the voice command are the best I've used. It usually recognizes the correct commands although it has made the wrong interpretations a few times. This is a great car and the best value out there. It compares to the Beemers and Lexus and M.B.s but are 15-35k less. Add to that a 10 year 100k mile warranty and you have a real winner. People have their own ideas of what car "looks" good but I really love the way it looks. If you're looking for a luxury sedan do yourself a favor and drive one of these before you buy...You will be pleasantly surprised. My only regret is it's not made in Detroit."
