Hi there,
I am new here but I wanted to get some feedback on a new car I am looking into.
I drive a Kia Magentis, standard, at the moment. I do 20-25k km a year between Montreal and cities around (GTA is the furthest)
Here the cars I am looking at
G37x coup auto 2009 10k km, asking 35k
CC sportline auto 2010 500km, asking 30k (extended warrenty)
Genesis 3.8 tech package 2010 11k, asking 32k,

I would love the G37x but I am a bit concerned about a 6h trip in a sports coup. In winter it should perform nice with the Awd, skis as well as my carbon bike fit in the trunk (folds) but will only fit 2 people for skiing.
The CC seems better that way as it would fit 4 with skis.
I had a passat back in Europe (2001) and I liked it a lot but here in Canada I hear a lot about reliability issues.
Both have frameless windows so I am not sure if this causes problems in Canadian winters?

I love the genesis for the cooled seat, navigation, rear camera...
But how does a RWD perform in the winter? I bet it would be extremely comfortable to drive to Toronto but does it hold a bike in the trunk? The seats do not fold on the one I saw.
Any comments are welcome.
Thanks
