I always like Edmund’s head-to-head comparisons. This time around, they pit two luxury cars against each other. One being the upstart in the new 2009 Hyundai Genesis (the budget Korean luxury car) and one of the mainstays of the luxury car market in the 2008 Lexus GS 350.

For this comparison, Inside Line pitted the GS 350 powered by a 2.5L V6 dishing out 303 horses, which puts the Lexus at a disadvantage compare to the range-topping 4.6L V8 Genesis that produces 375 hp. Makes you wonder why they didn’t choose a more powerful GS like the 430 that sports a 4.3 L V8.

Interesting take in the video:
