how does that work? He jumps you and you catch up and then you jump him and he catches up?

Its hard to believe how far hyundai has come and how much ground Honda has lost . Pretty soon were all going to need many mods just to keep up with grocery getters !

Meh theres much more to a car than just straight line speed. Ive already started hearing stories about the new Genesis's taking a shit and requiring heavy maintenance. Same old Hyundai, just in a new fancy box.

Genesis was nice and I did like it. I actually got rid of it do to health reasons at the time. Mine was a 2.0t with acouple mods. It was being used to test parts for a friends shop. Comparing the two, well, Hyundai has a ways to go. The over all feeling of both cars is miles a part. I'd take the S2k over a Genesis (3.8 or 2.0t) anyday. Everything about the S is just better, from steering response, shifter, interior feel, the engine, looks, weight, etc. Even though they aren't terribly heavy, when I drove my Genesis, it just felt big. Not at all like the S. I spirited drive in a Genesis won't give you the same thrill as being in a S2k. Best switch I could have made

I do agree about more to a car than straight line performance . However i was referring to how Hondas quality is suffering as of late . Thus Hyandai is gaining ground .
