in korea i think it is around 95K when converted to US dollars, i doubt that it will be the case, i would say that it may be priced around 50-55 base to compete with the A8, 7,S and LS but considerably cheaper

The 7 series has totally different rear light styling than the LS so I have no idea what you are talking about....look at the headlights on the S class and compare it with this new rip off from Hyundai like Sunday....THAT'S copying other cars.. What are you gonna tell me next? The 7 series ripped the LS off because the Lexus has 4 wheels and so does the 7 series???

yeah but look at the new 7 series!
its probably one of the ugliest luxury sedans out there... They should have just copied the new S class or the LS.

i like the front. i don't even know if they are going to introduce this into u.s. shore but if they do, they should think about launching new brand because no one will spend 50~60k for hyundai badge. they need new brand name to sell luxury cars like this...

100k is a lot of money for a car. Especially if it's not premium brand. I just can't see people rushing to get this. Lexus was a Toyota but Toyota had a steller brand and quality. I have driven the v6 sonatas and honestly i would rather drive around a lowly civic dx over v6 sonata. I am all about underdog, but underdog has to perform - not just be given a chance without merit.

where are you all get this 100k figure. obviously exchange rate got lot to do with it which in currently play positively for consumers in the u.s. hyundai always charge more for korean market customers compare to u.s. customers. if they indeed decide to sell their flagship sedan here in the u.s. soil, they will adjust their price for well below 100k. over 100k is almost 3 times what hyundai genesis is selling for and i don't think they are that much crazy... especially all these warranty/gurantee they put on superball ad.
