I'm surprised that these days you can get G37 at the price of one of these Genesis Used. But the Genesis is really getting up there with it's interior and power. Hyundai has some good ideas that should be given some credit.

Agreed! As an enthusiast I like it when competition drives the market. I don't care where or who it's coming from.

Yeah Hyundai does have a very nice blue. But I'd go with those same colors

Isn't the Infiniti G going to be updated soon too? no word from Japan on when they are updating the Skyline(G37)... But I'm thinking since the Z was face lift recently they'll do is soon too. You're right they are preparing for battle....I got a feeling they'll me more GC on the roads in the future.

The BRZ makes up with its actual passion and engineering. Not saying the new GC doesn't have either, just not the same lol

Don't know if this means anything since it's purely subjective, but I have a buddy who initially hated the new GC's design refresh. He actually out right hated the GC all together, but that's here nor there. He just got back from a trip to Seoul, Korea where he saw the car in person and sat in one. Wait for it...

He absolutely loves it. BTW, he drive a IPL G37S coupe 6MT. He is currently thinking about selling his G37 and picking up a GC 2.0T. Saw him last night and he couldn't stop gushing praises for the car. So I guess we really should wait and give the GC a fair shake.
