Thought that AWD was only on the V6.

Yep AWD V8, that's what I drive. Only in Canada though.

Your going to love the car. Came from the Genesis Coupe.....moving to the V8 and AWD is a huge change. Your going to be waiting for the first snow fall come winter! Even with the AWD, make sure you pick up a set of winters. You won't regret it!

Where are you in Canada?

Yes i live in Montreal, Quebec I will get AWD 5.0, this car must be very good like you says in winter, i read the AWD is really well made

He has no choice as it is law up here in Quebec to have winters all around.

The only drawback on this car 8s the lack of choices for winter tires. In 19 inches staggered only 2 choice available. At lease they are good quality ones

Aaah. Thanks for the info.

In fact, in Canada, the Genesis only comes in AWD versions (V6 or V8) for 2015. No RWD versions in Canada for 2015 Genesis.

So I finally took delivery Last Friday of my new Genesis, Loved it, I took it for a trip ( 700 Km ) to Quebec city and rolled around for a bit, this cars is amazing, I can't push it for now, trying to make a good start for the engine for the first 1000 KM. I made 9.5 L /100 on the highway, and I was pretty happy!
I have read lots of treads about these cars and what to expect first things a saw was the tires, my car came with continental Tires? Not Michelin or Hankook
I will post some pictures later after the windows are tinted

Cheers
