Good vehicle, Hyundai copies the best of U.S. designs, it's 4.6 is an example compare it to Fords 4.6... Korea's attempting to TAKE ON the Japanese market with a budget most people have no idea of! Who knows but they are the fastest growing manufacturer in the world. Cared for it will last as long as any other man made junk !

Great engine, rest of the car is not as great.

Believe what you will, but I've seen the results of their technology failures, and they are garbage, but politically sympathetic people who love Asian manufacturing and technology can't see the forest for the trees. Good luck !

great car. I have a AWD 2015, it had the room, power, and accessories i was looking for. There is nothing comparable to it other than the chrysler 300 and taurus. I got 30k on it and given the warranty I feels I will have this car for another 100k mles

I am on my 2nd one and this one a 2012 has all the gadget failings of the previous 2010 model. I affectionately refer to it as my XJ Genesis. Horrible - Fold in mirror repair - $1,000 (No thank you). Back up sensor problem shown as a green light and most annoying beep - $1,200 (No thank you!). ... and I only have 48,000 miles on it.

Intriguing views. I recall the WSJ car review on the Genesis saying it was not only comparable to the very trendy Lexus at that time (circa 2010) but was better and cheaper by $20,000. When I went through my Audi A8-L after 7 years and then a Lexus 430-SC for 2 years thought I'd investigate. Did so, bought a 2011 and still have it today and after 79,000 passed today, feel it matches the shocked WSJ reviewer's begrudging compliments way back when. Get a feeling I can drive this up to 150,000-200,000.

Just got into an Uber yesterday with 2011 Genesis.. the guy put 247,000 miles on it and counting.. I was shocked.. he plans to go as far as he can on it too.. He said Hyundai guarantees it for 10 years..

2010 Genesis Coupe 3.8 . 163,200 Miles. Runs like a champ. I dont think ive ever used the Ferrari paddle shifters. So perhaps I'm not putting through it's full speed and performance potential. But It still makes me smile every time I get in.

Would it be dangerous to buy a Hyundai Genesis 3.8 Manual with 227k km on it even when it's from a dealership?

Bought used 2012 Hyundai Genesis with 40K miles. Two years later I’ve had to replace the transmission, replace a door actuator, replace the HECU brake controller, and replace the navigation system. Total cost in excess of $10K repairs in two years with less than 70K miles on the car. Yes, it’s a lemon.

My 09 has been pretty solid. 123k and still going. The engine is fine, always feels right. The interior has proven to be well-made. I had to replace the wipers and three oxygen sensors. Change the fluids and filters and it seems to be happy.

I currently have a 2009 Hyundai Genesis 4.6 sedan, and I have 181,644 miles on it right now. The only thing I ever had to do was replace the Alternator for about $500…. That’s it besides regular oil changes, etc….. The bad thing is I want a new car, but it’s hard for me to justify getting rid of the Genesis because I’ll get next to nothing for it and it still runs great…. 0 issues….

I drive an '09 Genesis 3.8 that I bought in August of 2008. 136K miles. Ran over an elevated manhole cover at 29K miles that gutted the oil pan, one battery replacement around 80K miles, two different episodes of side body/paint work (from wife, and from daughter recently kissing side of the garage with the car) and DIY headlight bulb replacements two years ago. I have gotten the 30,000 mile service at 30-60-90-120k miles from the dealership where I bought the car, and of course oil change every 5K miles. Car still in its prime - road- tripped with wife with Yakima bike rack and two hybrid bicycles strapped to trunk two weeks ago. My oldest kid (who was a month old when I bought the car) keeps asking me if she can have this car when she gets her license this fall. My answer remains "no."
