I love the emblem... I've heard people refer to it as a Bentley in parking lots.

Are those buttons on the gear shift?

edit: nevermind...

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Inside the new Genesis, no major changes are visible save for a new BMW-esque shift knob that likely operates the new 8-speed automatic transmission that has been announced to debut in the facelifted Genesis.

Also for the 2011 model year, there are reports of Hyundai fitting the new Genesis with its new 5.0L V8 that is touted to produce 429 horsepower. The new powertrain is also scheduled to debut under the hood of the upcoming Hyundai Equus. It is also likely that Hyundai will add new GDI (gasoline direct injection) engines to the line-up.</div>

Looks good. Just some subtle upgrades.

you can see the difference here. perhaps they were going for more of an expensive tightly fitted muffler look here. it's not bad.

i've noticed that in all Hyundais, the wheels should stick out a little more. they're always so tucked in.

New 8-speed transmission? A first for Hyundai? I bet someone $500 monopoly money that it will be the buggiest year for the Genesis.
