Good for Hyundai. We should welcome the competition. When you have something that is widely liked by many, sooner or later, people will copy it/make similar product based off of it.
I just hope that it has good safety ratings.

Yeah I saw that bout a week ago and just laughed to myself. On the real though, they have a nice car to be excited about. It doesn't matter if they compare it to the G or not. Time and testing will tell if indeed it is better or not that the G. Either way I'm keeping mine coz i've been saving since the concept came out to get it and it was well worth the wait I'm sure those who buy the Genesis will just as happy with their car than we are with ours.

A lot of people still feel Infiniti is inferior because it is essentially, a Nissan. I don't. I like Nissan/Infiniti, Toyota/Lexus, Honda/Acura and now Hyandai with it Genesis sedan and coupes.
In fact, Hyundai stands behind their cars with a better warranty than anyone else. That means the quality is there and they know it, so they cover it. If I were to buy a Genesis, I would definitely change the badging...they have Genesis emblems to replace the Hyundai thing.
