It has the SAT equivalent that'll do for you.
Okay, then I guess all I need is a Hyndai forum and the rest of you guys to join and we'll all be good to go...

I've done business with korean before, I don't trust "ANY" of their stuff (including cars) anymore. Cunning and lying bastards, therefore the comparison in their website is 90% BS.

You know it may be able to outperform the 2, and I know Hyundai is trying to get a new name with luxury cars. But at the end of the day its still a Hyundai.

Bingo. Its like a real woman vs. a FleshLight. We all know which is the real thing!

Having already seen what it was, I can only imagine the look on your face as Google brought up the result!!

Gosh... Now I'm going to have to go google it to see... I dont know what it is... all I can imagine is maybe a transvestite of some sort or degree..


Edit:

Oh God... Now I wish I didnt know what FleshLight was...

I think my analogy would have been better...

550i = Real Women
Genesis = Transvestite

I'll take the test with a grain of salt. It was performed by Hyundai at their testing facility.

Good job by Hyundai though, I just wish they can come up with better design. The current design looks like a marriage of the Benz (front and interior), Lexus GS (side) and Infiniti (rear).

By the way, do you know that the M5 posts lower lateral acceleration than the 550i? So the 550i must handle better than the M5

But the test was done by the independent car review company AMCI and it was done at the El Toro Marine Corps Air Station not at some Hyundai test facility.
