Not bad. I'll never forget the first ones (brand) that where cheap. It was like EVERYONE purchased one that first 2-3 years they came out then tossed them away at 100k miles.

Just saw it in person.. It is very well designed on the outside, and seems to be set up very well. However the interior is of horrible quality..

It is very good looking in person. As you could see from my previous posts i was very much against it before seeing it. However, don't expect anything above Hyundai quality when you look close.

Some of you are impressed with the exterior? Really? To each their own I guess, but there isn't anything about it that was particularly striking for me.

Yep G35 must suck pretty bad.



Comparing the Genesis interior to the 370z makes the Hyundai look like something you'd get out of a vending machine.
