Yeah, nice... my dealer sends out a bulletin by email each month and mentioned how the Genesis was about to be launched in Korea...
Would be good if they put one in Targa Tasmania next year in April (it's quite possible)

The coupe looks better but i still prefer smaller cars

i am fascinated by the coupe because it will be the first real proper sports car by hyundai, and probably will be affordable
it will probably be love at first drive,like my i30 :)

hyundai is headed in the premium class, but i don't think it will match the bmw,even the lexus i think..but it will be better then volkswagen at least.
Careful Tiny!
My i30 get mistaken for a BMW all the time
The i30 is in a class of its own. Nothing to compare with.

you can't come up with a car over night and take over the world. hyundai is just taking it's first step being reborn. the i-series (i10 i20 i30 i55) and the genesis will change the way people look at this brand. the i55/veracruz has just been launched here, i think it is beautiful and well put togheter and it will be a tough competitor for the x5 and the q7 but i doubt it will be crowned suv king...
i also own a hyundai santafe (new model) it is beautiful,pleasant materials, nice drive etc but it is not as nice as a vw touareg for example
