Thumbs up

I like the Jeep SRT8 idea. I heard they were bumping up the horses on those as well. But, I thought they were going to do that for the year starting 2010? I may be wrong?
I also like the Infinit's and that Hyundai Gensis coupe is a pretty cool looking car and looks like fun. GOOD LUCK on your choice.

Thanks. They will be bumping up all of the horsepower levels I believe, but the srt8 won't get renewed and upped until 2012.

Lol @ second best. The 2010 GT500 has 540hp. Far from second best. The car is a beast, and I think it looks a lot better than the 05-09 cars.

2010 Infiniti G37 Sport sedan

those are just a few I am looking at. I don't plan on any major modifications to any of these. So if you have ever dealt with these, let me know your thoughts and opinions on these choices. Feel free to add any other cars.
Genesis Coupe - meh, get a Camaro
Sonata - you are joking, right?
Titan - Get a Silverado and be a proud American..............seriously
Jeep GC - saw one on the road. Looks quite nice.
G37 - Great car but a CTS is a quality alternative so that you can be a proud American

Just my thoughts.

Bingo.

Or get that Sierra you were thinking about. Good trucks.

the one american car on your list is a chrysler? granted the new jeep is supposed to be nice but i would never buy it in the first year given the history of reliability of the cherokee.

and why titan? its way over priced. you get the same features with the silverado or f-150 for less money.

the sonata is the only one i support on this list.

Ok guys, I DO NOT WANT A CAMARO. End of story lol. The reason why I picked the Genesis Coupe is because that's a car I can have fun with. Something that I'd enjoy driving. Camaro's will soon be dime a dozen. The Genesis Coupe I have hardly seen, and it's hard to get a hold of them.

The reason the Sonata is on the list is because it looks pretty sick for being a family sedan. Not just that, but I can get it in the 22k range after rebates...maybe a little higher because of the new design. It's something I can drive for DD purposes. Navi, sunroof, 260hp or so for a v6 sedan is decent.

The Titan because of it's style, and because I can get a 36k truck, for 23k at max.

The Grand Cherokee because I could get the SRT8.

The Sierra is alright...

Too many base their views off of who makes what. I will tell you right now, there is a reason why Hyundai is #3 for auto manufacturers right now, and it's because they are cheap. They have 3 cars...The Genesis Coupe, Sedan and the soon to be Equus, they all define them. Not just that, but high quality.

About the g37 sport sedan...it has the best of both worlds. Luxury and decent power.

Are you serious? I've already seen a ton of genesis coupes in West Chester and Columbus. If you're buying a car just for the rare factor, you need to start looking into Corvettes or go to the Italian automakers.
