Hyundai shows America how its properly done

[Z71_Silvy]

5.0L
V8
429HP
376LB-FT of torque

All of that in a large RWD sedan that will get 26MPG on the highway...which is more than the same car with the 4.6L V8.

And here I thought a V8/RWD sedan couldn't be efficient...

Kia and Hyundai are kicking ass and taking names.

Yep...I'd take a Genesis sedan with that 5.0 over anything in the class.

AND it's damn good looking too!

Hello? US carmakers?

Paying attention here?

It's like a Town Car...subtle and not in your face...yet has a presence about it that you know when someone has arrived.

I love the direction Hyundai and Kia are taking, if I was in the market for a new sedan i would definitely look at the Genesis or even the new Optima, that thing is awesome!

They could Gold plate the thing and i would still have nothing to do with it. yes they have good marketing but good marketing does not make quality cars. I have been in kias and hyundai's and you get what you pay for. They are cheap rattle traps with no resale value. No Thanks. JMO

Yes. They used to be just that. Times have changed. Even at auction Kia & Hyundai models are bringing good resale.

This company is coming fast and anybody that isn't watching is going to get passed.
