G70 US Availability?

[Slides]

Was just going to say...LOL.

This is what you paid $750 more over the Sport...

• Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer tires
• Performance brake pads
• Unique electronically controlled suspension tuning
• Upgraded thermal capacity
• Heated steering wheel (AWD only)
• Tire Mobility Kit (TMK) for reduced weight

Umm, that sounds like a steal for just $750 more.

Wow, we just blew right past 3000 posts here on this thread. Will we reach 4000 by the end of October?

I would say a good chance of that, especially if the rollout continues to go as slow as it has been since there will be a lot of complaining.

If you think the Mustang is fast, you might want to watch the Throttle House video of the Stinger vs, the Mustang. Yeah, I know the Stinger is not the G70 but is does share the same engine. Spoiler alert, the Stinger smoked it!

Lol the G70 will stand no chance against a 18 Gt. My 18 GT runs 12.1 @. 117 bone stock on 18 inch tires, my buddy put a tune and better tires on and he runs 11.4 @ 121. G70 is a lot of things, faster than a Mustang will not be one of them. On. Track it will be worse. The Mustang should be faster, it is a sports car against a sporty sedan.

Well if you’re talking tuned cars...a tuned G70 will. Numbers all ready there.

As the post starter, it is amazing this thing has gone 3000+. But now that the car is available in the US, it might be time to archive this thing. On a side note, I live in VA and stopped into both Alexandria and Springfield dealers to see the G70s in person! Will post my thoughts in the other thread.

until cars really are widely available, Id rather keep this open. With only one dealer selling right now on the west coast, and only more than a couple on the east coast this can continue to be a good source of information for those that dont live near a dealer. Until my car is in my hands Ill continue to add info here so people at least know how cars are flowing into dealers and such

Crossposted w/ US dealers who actually have the G70 available for sale.
Finally, my dealer. Genesis of West Columbia SC (2019 Genesis G70 Sedan | Columbia) is showing 2019 models with model details. No inventory, yet.
Additionally, Genesis of Hilton Head SC, same automotive group, Peacock Automotive, ( Genesis Dealership Hardeeville SC | Genesis of Hilton Head) has 3 G70's, 1 G80, 1 G90 in stock. No markup. South Carolina, Genesis USA, and the dealerships have finally got their act together.

I'm going up to NJ this weekend too... it's my nephew's birthday. Wish I was going to get a G70 instead!

You can try taking the western route through Harrisburg instead. Much more scenic and will keep you off I-95.
