And for as impressive the Genesis G70 is as a first effort compact luxury sport sedan, it still comes up short in that category. The interior design and some of the material choices are just a turn-off for me.

With that being said, if the G70 proves to have a great reliability record then it could very well become an attractive buy. BMWs self-implode out of warranty and become more headache than they are worth.
Unless you spend the money on a leather dash and nappa or merino upholstery, BMW interiors are pretty bad IMHO. Dakota upholstery on a luxury car is a turn off to me and the only reason I upgraded to a 5 series from a 3 series. If Hyundai can make and sell a car that better meets my needs, I will go there. BMW has to meet its customer needs, not the other way around.
