Holy bejesus! Hyundai is going to offer a Lexus-like 8-speed automatic on their Genesis sedan in 2010.
Now consider this: Only a few years ago Hyundai was considered road trash by many. Now look at them.

Good for them. From punchline to legitimate contender.

I’ve noticed that as their products get better and better, their pricing has come more in line with other large Asian manufactures. They are no longer a super-duper-value car that you buy because it's way cheaper than the competition.

Yeah, but resale is still extremely low, because it's been traditionally low. That makes for fantastic deals on 1-3 year old cars.
