It was an audacious claim. More like a bet, or a dare, really. And now here I was, 3,000 miles from home, staring down one of the best roads in America, to play it out. Could the Genesis G80 actually be a good car to drive?
Saying that a midsize Genesis drives like a vintage BMW is a bold line, but not one that's totally unfounded. I've driven the Hyundai Veloster N in its home country of Germany–on track on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, even–and was shocked at how much I liked it. That is, I was surprised until I realized the person responsible for its development, Albert Biermann, used to run BMW's M division until he felt that corporate was making the cars too soft and bland.
Each bending switchback, each undulating bend, I wanted to drive more. Route 74, with its 24 miles of winding road from the base of the desert floor and the Art Smith Trialhead up to the pines of Thomas Mountain, complied. There's another 20 miles of driving, past Lake Hemet and the Pacific Crest Trail before you're out of the mountain range itself driving towards civilization and sprawl at Valle Vista.
