Getting more respect is a lame reason to buy a car, IMO...I get respect (or don't) because of my actions, not my car. If we were talking about a rusty beat-up piece of crap (or a ricer), that's something to avoid because of the disrespect you'll get, but the Camaro and Genesis are both shiny new cars.

...and FWIW there's still enough people out there holding on to the Camaro mullet stereotype that the respect is probably equal, when you consider the respect that the Genesis will gather from the import tuner market.

Choose the Camaro because it's a great car, not because others will think you drive a great car. It's almost certainly great enough for that, right?
