Except that the Genesis V8 doesn't make 342 horses.

What will the V8 put out? Is 368 the final number?

it's only pics so it's hard to judge but good god, that's a horrible attempt of a metal with rattle can spray on plastic.
and Aisin 6AT ey, I wonder if it shares it with any other car.

I don't think it looks bad at all. In fact, my RX330 uses similar painted aluminum/metal look on plastic and it wasn't that bad to look at. From the pics, it looks pretty much the same too me.

I really like this car. I am also want to look at the new G8. But seriously now, cover up the little "H" on the steering wheel in pretend that this is a German luxury car. IMO Hyundai really needs an upscale brand to move a vehicle nearing $40k.

How does that interior remind you of the S-class?
If anything, it resembles the Infiniti Q45.
