 January 2018 update:Now that I'm driving a car that gets better than 27 mpg across the board, I bristle at the notion of driving a car that gets significantly fewer mpg AND requires premium gas.  In my neighborhood, the difference between regular and premium has run as high as $1.00 per gallon.  That's a "premium" I don't want to pay.  July 2017 update:I traded the Ewuus in on Toyota Highlander a couple of years ago because I needed to have a trailer hitch. Hyundai said I'd void the warranty on several suspension related systems if I added a hitch to the Equus, so I had to trade it away.I still miss the ride.  Now that I no longer need the trailer hitch, I may soon revisit the 2018 issue of the Equus, which now is called Genesis?I heard they finally have an all wheel drive version. But I also heard you now have to use premium gas. Hyundai giveth, Hyundai taketh away...Original review:After looking at luxury sedans for about a year, I traded my Bimmer for the Equus without a second thought.  The Equus was the first car I got into for a test ride that I felt was more comfortable than the 745.  It uses regular gas, gets comparable mileage, is as quiet, comfortable and well equipped as the 745i - for 10s of thousands less. Add the superior warranty and valet service (I haven't been to the dealer for service in nearly 4 years!)  Only two demerits: less than stellar iPod implementation (on an otherwise outstanding audio system) and handling that's more boat like than Bimmerish.  I'll keep the 2011 until Hyundai delivers an AWD Equus.
