Default 2 Moded Hyundai Genesis @ DUB Show San Diego

Got a chance to check out the Genesis up close and personal. Such a great value for $! Unfortunately, after Lexus and BMW I would not drive one.

Although These are modified DUB style (not a fan), the interior is pretty nicely done.

Mmm..looks like the LS, 5 series, and E-class all melded together. Haha I'll pass for a couple generations until considering the Genesis.

I've always thought the exterior looked very European like. I think it looks great.

I agree! While I have no plans of ever getting one, I respect it's Gangsta!

5 yrs ago who woulda thunk we'd be looking at a modified luxury V8 RWD sedan from Hyunda. It's just amazing. And that black one looks GREAT.

I actually kind of like the white one....but I just can't see myself driving a Hyundai. When I think of Hyundai I still picture my brother's old Burgundy Excel lol
