Looks like a 300C nailed a Lexus LS. Ugly.

They've been making some nice stuff the last few years.

Its funny they don't add any badges with the "H"... Something to be ashamed I guess.

I had the 2013 model as a loaner from Porsche while the Panamera was in for service. I was stunned at how nice of a car it was.

You don't see many "T;s" on a Lexus, or "N's" on an Infiniti either. Really great cars. Have to give credit where credit is due.

Have your friend drive the new 2014 S - if he doesn't trade that Hyundai for a new S, then he has no soul.

The new Hyundais are nice. Friend of mine just picked up a Veloster turbo. Very nice car for the money.

The Koreans have really stepped up their game on design and feature set.
I suspect they'll do to the Germans what Japan did to the Americans.

I personally like what Hyundai has been doing, they build damn good cars. But I don't care for this one.

I've been in a couple of them and they've come a long way from their early models. They have a Turbo coupe that's a lot of car for the $.

Make Bruins Great Again
|
I recently bought a 2013 Veloster Turbo. Incredible car for the price. It will never be a classic but it sure makes a great daily driver. It has a ton of options, 10 year warranty, great pickup once you get past 15 mph, and I average 32 MPG with the 6 spd with a third pedal.
I'm trying to get the wife to consider a Genesis Coupe.

One thing that has unfortunately happened with Hyundai is that they are now practically the same price as their competition. The only thing still standing out is their long warranty period. G |

There is no better value out there!
The Genesis Coupe even has a "track" version. I drove a 3.6L Track version (2013), it was tons of fun to drive, but did understeer quite a bit. Maybe the track version with the smaller engine would be better.
