    Buy V6 or V8?

    I have looked around and I could buy a 2011 V6 base Genesis with approximately 20,000 miles (it was a rental vehicle) for approximately $21,500, or a 2010 V8 Genesis (also approximately 20,000 miles and was not a rental) with the leather dashboard for approximately $25,000. Which would you choose?
