A lot of money for a Hyundai.
Has anyone seen one of these in the flesh? In the marketing photos they look amazing but they seem a mix of parts (Merc grille, Lexus lights and tail) but I don't begrudge it for that. I think it looks like a fancy Nissan Maxima in general. Anyway, it costs US$58,000 and for those unfamiliar with the US car market, that is more than a Cadillac Sports Sedan (US$35,000) and Lincoln Navigator (US$57,000) but to put it into perspective, an S Class starts at US$91,000. Either way, it's a tough market for the Korean maker and there is some some stiff competition. I think the build quality should impress though because the Americans have embraced Toyota.
