Proof that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery


Walk around Hyundai's new Genesis, stare at it from every possible angle, and you'll swear you've seen it before. Not the car as a whole, mind you, but rather the individual styling cues. The front end, for example, especially the grille, resembles the nose on the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. The profile? Decidedly Lexus LS 460. And the rear, well, there's some Infiniti M there, maybe a little BMW 5 series, too. And speaking of BMW, the Genesis's trunk line appears to be pulled straight from a 7 Series. Or does the front resemble an Infiniti's, the profile a Benz's, and the rear a Lexus's? Our editors' views varied like cell-phone plans, but the consensus was unanimous -- the Genesis looks strangely familiar.
