What will the V8 put out? Is 368 the final number?

it's only pics so it's hard to judge but good god, that's a horrible attempt of a metal with rattle can spray on plastic.
and Aisin 6AT ey, I wonder if it shares it with any other car.

I don't think it looks bad at all. In fact, my RX330 uses similar painted aluminum/metal look on plastic and it wasn't that bad to look at. From the pics, it looks pretty much the same too me.

I really like this car. I am also want to look at the new G8. But seriously now, cover up the little "H" on the steering wheel in pretend that this is a German luxury car. IMO Hyundai really needs an upscale brand to move a vehicle nearing $40k.

How does that interior remind you of the S-class?
If anything, it resembles the Infiniti Q45.
