The black and silver shots seem to have that guard match the body color where the green with black shown is someboy's idea of a great look gone bad maybe

BTW thanks Lexuskid for the black shot, I was curious what it would look like in black and it looks great.

 

In silver the impact strips on the Genesis look weird, IMO. A little boring and it doesn't work well with the lines. It sticks out too much compared to the rest of the body. If I got a Genesis it'd be in black so the impact strips would blend in anyway.

 

wheels and drop!

 

I'm confused about the grille. The car in the photos clearly has a Hyundai grille while on the preview site it has the other, de-badged grille. Which one will be on the US model?

they showed both grills when they brought the car to the autoshow. they decided to monitor the reactions of consumers to see whether or not people liked the genesis having its "own brand" like emblem. I like the hyundai grill better, but i think they went with the individual "debaged" genesis grill

 

I just found the site you posted and seems without.

Also very interesting there is a separate website for it and the dialogue on other write ups about it competing with the GS, M, others, and it being entry level luxury.

I'm predicting those Hyundai folks are about to spin off their own luxury brand and create quite a stir with that as first out of the starting blocks.

 

I told my lady friend to start snapping pictures of it as I drove. She didn't know why it was so special but I knew Club Lexus would want to see the pics. And when the driver saw the camera he took off to try to get away. Like 100+ mph fast.

I pass by the HQ quite a lot, never really thought anything of it. Never thought much of Hyundai either, before seeing this car on the road.

 

to think, we are getting excited over spy pics of a HYUNDAI.

 

It looks pretty good...

Now how many in this forum are buying one and moving over to Club
Hyundai?

 

I think it needs to go away all together.

 

Again, with so many styling cues from other cars, they made it work.

 

wow, nice pics! The grille looks much better than the one for the Korean market.


There's a LOT of 3rd Gen LS influence in the front design, eh?

 

I saw one on the 57 S today... but it had different plates than the one you saw and had the concept grill head lights. ****ty pics sorry:

 

Acura take notes.

 

That's a pretty sharp looking car. Props to Hyundai for finally coming around. I'd definitely pick one of these up over the soon to be released Acura RL (and I'd save a few thousand dollars in the process). All auto makers should take notice of this car. From the exterior, it seems that it has good build quality. Nice, tight seams.
