Far be it from us to ignore another brand that has done the same thing our favorite brand has done. So lets celebrate rising from past mistakes and moving on to current greatness. Perhaps a joint win for the Camaro and Genesis in recognition of these parallel paths?

You have a very valid point. Hyundai has put similar problems that used to plague GM behind them, which is of course good for the consumer.
Here's the thing, and I open myself to flaming: I don't live and work in Korea, Japan, or Europe. So while I can recognize a good vehicle from those areas, I have no reason or desire to "celebrate" it.
Let them win the Korean Car of the Year award...besides, I personally think the 2009 Genesis was enough recognition of their improvements. Let someone else get it, this year
