Re: WESTERN SPOTTED THREAD
I spotted a black 2012 Hyundai Genesis today in the Hunting Hills area. I mean, they are pretty nice to be honest and I would totally drive one, but this particular car caught my eye because it had Bentley badges on it! It was a middle-aged woman driving aggressively, you know, the type you would expect to be pulling out of that area. I mean, come on.... wtf! On the other hand, if a dude bought a hyundai, switched all the badges, then convinced his wife he had bought her a Bentley I'm not sure if I would applaud him or laugh at him for marrying a dumb woman.
Edit: So, after some research, the "winged warrior" emblem is the Korean hyundai symbol. Looked identical to Bentley to me, idk. So, does the badge make that car KDM?!
I doubt they actually swapped the emblems, so I'm thinking Hyundai must be starting to use that emblem - probably not the worst idea since they're trying to gain luxury car market share.

Re: WESTERN SPOTTED THREAD
Spotted a burnt orange G8 with black factory wheels.Pretty loud,sounded good.Is that Atlas?
Yeah,I think they'll be using that emblem now(and I've noticed none of the new Genesis/Equus line has Hyundai anywhere on them).From what I understand,they intend to launch a luxury arm of the brand,similar to Acura/Lexus/Infiniti/etc,and it may be called Genesis.The current Genesis would then be called the Genesis Coupe and the sedan the Genesis Sedan(unless they come up with something better,haha),and they'll also have the Genesis Equus that just came out.The Hyundais would continue to use the circle H badge,and the Genesis line would use the winged badge.It's been a while since I read that,but I haven't heard anything different.
