Applies to anything.

A g37 is a poor man's 335i.

If you think a car's price represents 100% of the allocated budget for a car, you are sadly mistaken.
I would not consider a G37 a poor mans 335i by any means, if anything a 335i is a more expensive G37 that looks more drab. It's a great car, but as far as build quality they are pretty much the same..not the difference between the Genesis and the G.

I don't think anybody is saying that people nearly go broke with every car purchase, but nobody about to buy a G37 if it is well within their financial means is going to see a Genesis and change their mind. I can understand giving it a fair chance but I mean come on man...have you even looked at your car next to a G? Great value is absolutely true, great performance, decent looks, okay interior...but pulling up in between the two at a stop light and my head is looking at the G.....
