By bringing up a companys past as the basis for judgement, you've just cemented the fact that, yes indeed you are a brand snob and not a true auto enthusiast. A true auto enthusiast would look at the car (the product) itself and not the special decoration behind it done by the marketing folks.

An good analogy is with a girl who you do have an interest in but is afraid to approach due to the not-so-good rumors you've been hearing about her. Your the type who would believe these rumors and not even talk to her. Find out for yourself, firsthand, and THEN judge. Seperate the girl from the rumors is basically what I'm saying. Same thing with the Genesis; seperate the car from the marketing or companys past history.

Oh for the record, I drive a 1998 Nissan Maxima. Yes, I have a family.
Well if you remember since your old enough the z was a reasonably price sport scar I have owned a 74 260z, 90 300zx, currently own a 70 240z for the past 25 years and my new 370z. I was a Mechanic for 25 years I like and dislike some brands like Daewood, Kia,Hyudai they are made cheaply I think you would agree.The Hyundai sports car heritage is where they have no sports car heritage like the Datsun Z line from what it has evolved to now it's still a sports car and it's not going to be breaking down, reliability is the image of Datsun and now Nissan as well Toyota's. You don't have to agree with me but to label someone who's opinion is different is wrong. I don't appreciate it if you had posted like I have I would've pointed the facts of the car to change the image, but to call people names is wrong and with that go buy yourself a 4 door hyundai and leave the nissan family your not worthy. THE END
