    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum.

Hi, All-

This is my first post. I'm shopping for a used car, and the Genesis has caught my eye as offering shockingly good value for money on the used market. Taking a casual glance at car-buying sites, it looks like Genesis models in the 2009-14 MY range not only sell for less than comparable models from MB, BMW, Lexus, Infiniti, Cadillac, but even Buick!

I looking to buy a car in the 2012-2014 MY range, with under 100k on the clock, but I'm willing to consider an older car so long as the miles are under 100k. Are there any MY/trim combinations to avoid. Are well-used Genesis cars smart buys, or are they inexpensive for a reason other than the Hyundai nameplate? Any other shopping advice?

As a point of comparison, I have a 2008 Infiniti M35x with 120000 miles that has been an awesome car since I bought it three years ago @ 70000. Can I expect a similar performance from a well-cared-for Genesis?
