Yes! If you think of it like a standard compact sport sedan, it seems expensive compared to its rivals. But drive it. Feel the M worthy reactions to your inputs, hear that sonorous inline-six pump out a creamy tone, and enjoy all the benefits of a well-built, properly tuned compact sport sedan.

In this video, I take you through the car, show you what features are offered and how they work. And then I take you on a drive that includes an acceleration test, a handling test, and a ride on the freeway. When combined, I hope it give you a good and broad sense of what this Genesis and why I think it’s a true contender.

FYI: I no longer own that 2001 M3, and yes, I do miss it.
