    Exhaust options for V8...

    2009 Genesis V8 vs. 2010 Taurus SHO ***VIDEO***

    Genesis owners! First and foremost...how in the world can MotorTrend and Car and Driver give the Taurus SHO EcoBoost the performance of 5.2 to 60 and a quarter mile at 13.7??? They did pretty well with the V8 Genesis with 5.5 and 14.1 but it makes me wonder if these media outlets have stock in...

    What to buy besides Genesis V8

    I am in the market for another car, and honestly, I had to ask myself if having 2 Genesi would be overkill. There just isn't another car in this price range that can do what it does. But I can't make a unilateral decision on this car so instead of the Genesis what Midsize Four Door Luxury...

    2010 V8 + Tech: does it have the touch screen navi or not?

    Sorry if this has already been discussed, but after reading some threads I'm getting rather confused as to which trim with which packages gets which navigation. So the question is, V8 has the only option - tech package, does that one include touchscreen navi or not? Thanks!

    2010 V6 or V8 or just wait for a 2011?

    I'm not in a real hurry to purchase, so thought I would take the time to do some research. It looks like for 2010, you can get every option on a V6 that you can for the V8, so people are not forced into a V8. Just want to make sure that I am not mistaken? New changes for 2011 are cosmetic...

    Guys, today I was driving back to work during lunch and I took a call on the integrated bluetooth that comes standard in the tech package.

    I have been researching new cars for a while and am sold on the Genesis. I have also been looking at the Lexus E350, GS350 Infiniti M, and Mercedes E 350. I am quite possibly going to pull the trigger tomorrow if the dealer makes the numbers work for me. As I mentioned, I am sold on the...
