When we initially caught wind that Hyundai had tapped a handful of tuners and magazines to customize the Genesis sedan for SEMA, we were prepared for some ungainly and wholly ridiculous offerings. Thankfully, the trio of coupes look promising, and even though the teased and spied RKSport sedan appears to take the Genesis to its illogical extreme, we've got two more to go before show time and one comes courtesy of the crew at RIDES.

Looking to build off the Genesis sedan's strong points, the RIDES team has created a roving office with all the technological amenities your 21st century man-on-the-move would need. Three Macs are installed inside – two Mac Minis and a one MacBook Air – allowing back-seat slaves to the interwebs (that would be us) to troll the 'Net through a pair of tray-mounted wireless keyboards, 8.4-inch VGA headrest monitors and a WiFi connection. Included inside is an iPhone 3G and iPod touch, along with a Farenheit DVD player, Genesis amps, Morel Hybrid Ovation speakers and two 12-inch sub-woofers. In the unlikely event that you're stranded on the roadside, pop the trunk and you're greeted by a 20-inch Apple Cinema Display with keyboard and mouse mounted on a motorized tray.

If the tech isn't enough, the back seats are swathed in suede upholstery, while the exterior benefits from custom 22-inch MHT three-piece wheels, an Extreme Dimensions body kit, custom bumper, lowered suspension, smoked taillights and quad-tip exhaust.

 

have yet to check out the car, but i am really liking it so far

 

Not feelin' the wheels but overall I think it looks pretty good!

 

I really like the color combo on the interior!!! But, I think that interior would go better with Black exterior.

oh em gee.


that things got like $4k worth of apple in it. me likey

oh yeah, it looks alright too. Not really a fan of the gray on brown combo, would have been better with black interior.

 

apart from the apple fanboyism, the poorly finished folding tables, and the cheap a$$ rocker switches, its an alright mod

 

solid car. I love seeing the aftermarket put some magic into a humdrum luxury car. Looks bad ***. looks desirable

 

i'm about to utter something i've never said before and never thought i would:
i want a hyundai!

 

I am amazed that this is a Hyundai. I still get Excel flashbacks. This car is superb.

 

Wow that interior looks really nice I like the drop, not really feeling the wheel design but car looks great overall.

 

wow, that looks good! minus all that Apple crap...

 

If I were in the market for a luxury sedan, I think the Genesis would be very very worthy of consideration.

 

Good design, well executed IMO. Maybe a few execs will consider the Genesis after this...wait, do execs go to SEMA?

 

I like it I testdrove the v6 a month or so ago and I thought it was a solid ride.

 

Here's what I would do to it
