I just came across this article and I believe that this is the first comparison test of Hyundai Genesis sedan against any other competitive model. The guys at Edmunds were among the first journalists to get behind the wheel of Genesis sedan and have now decided to be among first to run a comparison test between these two highly acclaimed automobiles: Hyundai Genesis 4,6 and Lexus GS 350.

Here is what they say:

It’s almost hard to write: Lexus vs. Hyundai. That’s the New York Yankees taking on the Albuquerque Isotopes — same game, different leagues. It’s pitting an exalted brand name to which millions aspire, up against the bargain brand millions settle for. And yet despite that, putting the 2008 Lexus GS 350 up against Hyundai’s audacious new 2009 Genesis 4.6 in a luxury sedan throw-down has resulted in one of the closest finishes ever in an Inside Line heads-up comparison test.

Yes, the Hyundai Genesis holds its own quite well against the Lexus GS 350 — without all that pesky prestige.

Wonder who won the test? Lets read the full article and find out.
