While I hope that HMA is telling the truth and that the US spec will live up to the hype, I don't want to get my hopes up. Honestly that video review was really disappointing, and taking into account the fact that the Genesis is far more expensive in South Korea I just don't really see how the US Spec can really be that much improved if it's half the price.
Time will tell though, although it's not entirely confidence inspiring that the Korean review said it felt unstable at high speeds.

Springs cost roughly the same amount regardless of the spring rate, same with differently valved shocks when you're on the OEM level. A larger anti roll bar is unlikely to cost significantly more to make as well. We're just talking changing adjustments here, not re-engineering the system.
