It seems like every single thread there needs to be a mention about Genesis or the G70, there are too many needless threads about the Genesis brand or most specific thenG70 Yes it is impressive, however any of the A4, 3 series. IS or C class can do just as good a job if not better. They are all good.

I disagree on the IS. While I myself owned a 1Gen IS, IMO the overall build-solidness, despite the Lexus reliability, dropped off significantly for the 2Gen and 3Gen versions. That's one reason why I did not replace my 1Gen with a later model. Yes, the A4 is very nice inside and out......but the G70 does it at a lower price, though I'll admit it's not a huge difference...just a few K.

Because this thread is about Genesis.. Why wouldn't we talk about it? And I think you should have quoted me fully.
The G70 is aimed straight at the stalwart 3-Series. And thus far it's proved to be a real drivers car in the same vein as the 3-Series. It's win against the F30 a few months ago while good, doesn't tell much though since the F30 is in it's last year. When BMW releases the G20 fully, then we'll see just how good the G70 really is. BMW development chief Klaus Frohlich has gone on the record to say he is fed up with critics, and wants the G20 to beat everything. The 330i has an updated 2.0T making 255hp and 295ft-lbs which is 7hp and 37ft-lbs more than the outgoing. The M340i 3.0 I6 makes 382hp and 369ft-lbs and estimated 4.2 sec 0-60. The xDrive system can divert 100% of the torque to the rear when all-wheel drive is not needed. It's lighter than the outgoing one by as much as 121 pounds. Has a drag coefficient of 0.26. Body rigidity is up 25 percent. And finally the G20 maintains a 50:50 weight distribution. G70 2.0T vs 330i and G70 3.3T vs M340i is the battle (test) I want to see.

The G70's win came against an Insight and S60. I should hope it wins out.

What do I like about it? Lexus reliability for the major components, a very low defect rate from the factory, the typical Toyota/Lexus mirror-shine paint job, and the fact that it has something the original IS should have had and did not (AWD). But I was clearly not as impressed with the interior and exterior materials used on the 2 and 3Gen, and they both lost the 16" 55-series, softer-riding all-season tire option the 1Gen had....you had to put up wth a stiffer ride.
