Long way depends on the direction. If that is to build a car like M5, then yes. But if that is to build a car like M2 (aka back to basics) then it could take less time. Think Toyota GT86, the only thing lacking is, is straight line performance.

Very creative name also.
In reality, it's a damn shame.
Do the world really need a rip of from other brands name and with key design elements from the leaders in this business?
Why can't Hyundai come up with uniqe stuff on theyr own?
It's not only sad, it's just pathetic imo, Hyundai should be bigger and better than this.
Again I don't see where is there anything copied. Of course there might be some influence, but that is normal when the person behind N is the person that was behind M. It is also normal that Lexus has a huge grill, as the designer of this grill was the designer of the Audi singleframe grill. Get ready for xDrive-ization of M cars, as the person at M is the one who was behind Quattro.

The only thing Hyundai ripped BMW off, is former M CEO.
