But that is the thing, the quality and materials in this car is far from crap now. Yes the name brand is going to be their biggest hurdle but the Genesis is an amazing car. Have you seen / been in one? If not then you are basing this off nothing but opinion. The sonata is also a terrific car in the mid/high 20's and sells like hotcakes.
No the BMW snobs will never buy this car but that isn't the target market for this car. They are looking for those that are smart buyers and want the most for their money and are willing to step up into the luxury market for the price of a mid level sedan. There are a heck of a lot more of them then BMW snobs. Unless you have been in one you wouldn't understand how nice this car it.
