You've seen the light and bought a Hyundai Genesis!
Great engine. Nice interior and electronics. Handling is fine if you like Lexus-like handling. A super value if you want lots of luxury with a powerful engine but not too much sport. That car must be giving Lexus conniptions.

Yep - I'm actually close to convincing my EA to get one. She and her husband were going to get an Avalon, but I think the Genesis is a much better car and a much better value.

You are 100 percent right on that call. There is no comparison between an Avalon and a Genesis. I did a ton of business trips to Albuquerque in 2008 and the nicest Hertz car in the limited Hertz selection available at the airport was the Avalon. It ran fine but was the most boring un-fun to drive car I have ever driven in the last 10 years. The ride and drive reminded me of a mid-1980s medium/large GM car.
