Among those 3, for the money, I'd get an Avalon equipped like I want.
The ES350 would be thousands more and the Hyundai is an unknown.

In that lineup, the Genesis, but that really isn't a direct competitor to the other two FWD cars.

If money is no object between the Lexus and Avalon, I would get the new Lexus ES and then the Avalon. And honestly I'd rather get an Azera than an Avalon.

Why not? Worried about your image or because some type of stigma against Hyundai/Kia? What type of phone & TV do you own? What about your refrigerator, washer, and dryer? I asked some people who had similar sentiments this same question and they didn't know that their LG & Samsung products were Korean (LG was Goldstar. Both LG & Samsung had negative stigmas in the past).

Wow I get that much mpg for my small 2.5L 6 cylinder and almost 200 hp less. 🙁
