I agree, they do look very similar. Almost as if they were both from the same automaker. But other than the rear view, they look nothing alike.

Congrats on the new GS.

Hyundai Sonatas are definitely great looking cars. By far not a Lexus, but we must all admit, well done vehicle for a great price. Some will just never admit it to be a "rebel" or different.

BTW, congrats on the GS, Love it!

You get what you pay for. The Sonata is a great car for what its priced at.

But a Lexus is a Lexus, and the new GS can't even be compared to the cars in its own class IMO, after driving the 5, the E and the GS.

GS takes the cake for being well rounded, comfortable, and different Congrats on the new car

Yeah it was just by chance I saw the Sonata parked next to us so I took the photo. They do have some similarities but they are obviously different. The Sonata is a pretty nice car and I do give Hyundai a lot of credit on the styling dept. But if I were in the market for a nice midsize sedan, I would choose Camry not because its a Toyota, but like New GS, it has a very very nice interior, and it drives very good too!

I plan to post my week 1 assessment tomorrow. In the meantime here are some photos I took with my friend around the South Bay last weekend.

I took this photo at a scenic and iconic Southern California location. It's the most picturesque basketball court in the world. Do any of you recognize it?

In CA, you have a max of 90 days to run dealer paper plates. I do have the plates, they were in the trunk while I took these photos.
