Is That A Chrysler?

[ctrcbob]

Came out of the bank today, and a guy comes up to me and asks "It that a Chrysler"? Told him that it was a Hyundai Genesis. He was impressed.

Did not scold him for asking if it was a Chrysler, because many times, I see a Chrysler Sebring Sedan, coming toward me, and from a distance, the front view does look like a Genesis grill.

I've had that one also. He didn't realize Hyundai made such a nice looking car!!!

Happened to me a few weeks ago. I pulled into the parking spot to get my hair cut and a guy catches up to me and says, that's the closest thing to a Bentley I've seen in an american car! I smiled and said, "Thanks, its a Hyundai though!" He dropped his smile and said, "Really? I thought it was a Chrysler!"

I've had two people ask me if my Genesis was a Chrysler. You kind of want to slap them because the wing badge doesn't look anything like the Chrysler logo.

Maybe it's where you live. They asked me if it was a Bentley

I agree - it must be a local thing. I have been asked, "Bentley?" three or four times, but never once have I been asked, "Chrysler?"

I get the Bently question as well....

CTRCbob,

The next day after reading your post, i saw the Chrysler you were talking about and i can see how it looks a little like the Genesis from the front. I'm not too about the rest.

I currently drive a 2001 Chrysler 300M and I like the Genesis, because it reminds me of an updated version of my car... more so then the box and imo less attractive 300/300C.

The paint color of my car is even called "Sapphire Blue Pearl Coat".

Yeah, I get asked what kind of car it is almost on a daily basis. Sometimes I will walk up on people who are hovering around my car in the parking lot. I always get people asking if it's a Bentley because of the KDM emblem. Everyone's shocked when I tell them it's a Hyundai. So far no Chrysler references.

I'm sorry if I offend any Chrysler fans (assuming any are left), but I believe I'd be prone to stab anyone that looked at my Hyundai and asked if it was a Chrysler.

A guy I work with just yesterday asked me what kind of car it was. I told him Hyundai. He said, "nah, its a Chrysler".

I love it when people correct you on what you actually own!
