I disagree. In this class, only the A8 has AWD available in the entire line (easy 'cause they've got only one model), and then Mercedes offers it as an option in only one of the 4 S-class models (the S550)--the S600, S63 and S65 are RWD only. All versions of the 7 series are RWD only, as are both the standard and extended length LS460.
and bmw 7 awd coming in a year or 2
soon i'm gonna get hyundai confused with lexus on the road.
that's bad....
take the badges off the GS, and it can be a hyundai

haha
they took the LS exhaust tips. shameless flagrant copycat.
if you can't beat em, copy em.
exhaust looks cheesy now that hyundai is using it.
now it's up there with other cheesy stuff like LED light strips and side vents.
Lexus should've put that exhaust tip across the whole lexus line in 2007 to stop people from biting.

"Planted into the engine bay is the new 5.0-litre Tau V8 engine worth over 400hp"
already coming for Equus..

but if this car was meant to compete with future GS-F, M5, and E63, it really needs over 500hp... (besides it already has 375hp) this over 400hp is BS or loosely put...

executive matchup
a little off topic - the lexus dealership that i bought my GS and RX from will be renovating. they will be combining lexus AND hyundai under one roof (i believe that's what they told me). don't want a lexus? here's a hyundai just around the corner (literally).

It boggles my mind that at the pace/rate Hyundai and Acura are going Hyundai will be "tier 1" way before Acura reaches that level.
Hyundai is delivering quality products.
The genesis coupe looks pretty nice also and is relatively rare on the road.

In my opinion, the Genesis's design needs to be refresh. Other car manfacutuers have already made changes to their designs and Hyundai is falling behind in copying them
