Why would you take over the payments on a car that's been damaged to that extent? Your Uncle isnt doing you any favors, forget about that car dude.

Re: Genisis - it's a Hyundai, not sure what you expected from a bunch of guys on an Infiniti forum (who obviously care about brand), but regardless of how far Hyundai has come, it's still associated with cheap/budget minded cars.

The G is a better car in every respect. Forget the Uncle's car and use your cash to get into a used G that hasnt been in any accidents.

You are right. There are also "Type P", "Type SP", "Type M", "Type X" in Nissan Skyline's history. But they never brought that type of naming to North America. They really don't want to make their car sound like a Honda/Acura.

Not a fan of the Genesis Coupe but your uncles G37 sounds like it was really abused and not taken care of. Not to mention suspension damage and Lord knows what else may have gone wrong. I was riding with my step brother in his Moms brand new maxima(back in 06) when he took a curve too fast and lost control. The car spun about 3 times then hit a curve. Hit the curve so hard the side airbags deployed(The one in the seat is painful btw. Felt like someone punched me in the stomach). The car didnt have a single scratch on it but the frame was so bent that the car looked as if it were going sideways when going straight. The car was fixed after 3mths but it never drove the same again. Get a car that hasn't been wrecked.

Don't take over a lease like that from family. That's just bad news. Just look elsewhere. I think for the money, the genesis coupe is a great option.

I agree. If you have a decent relationship with him now, it will surely go downhill as soon as the first problem arises with the car. It has been said many times: "Never buy a car from a friend or relative".

If they can get the coupe in the same league as the sedan then the discussion would be interesting, as of now the G is clearly much better.
This is exactly what I thought when I checked out the Genesis sedan & coupe.

Be careful with the family situation... Go with G37 and you won't regret it.

Bingo. I have to agree.

Seriously, a 2010 G for $24K. with 12,000 miles??? Worth a look see. Resale is good on G's. If you don't like it doesn't look like you'll take much of a hit. New Genius may be a different story.

Blow off your uncle and get your own G. Simple as that.

Skip the uncles car. He has bad karma and will paying some really large repair bills on the BMW when those things happen to his 5 series. Genesis coupe is a distorted design IMHO.
