I noticed the forum already has an epic stickied thread full of things we don't like about the G70, so I decided we could use a thread to lavish praise upon the things that we love about the G70.
1. Power- this car is seriously fast straight out of the factory. In sport mode I constantly find myself pleasantly surprised by how hard it pulls once the turbos spool up.
2. Fantastic Looks - this is a great looking car. In my few months of ownership I have received a metric boatload of compliments on how good this car looks. It makes me very proud to own it. From the dark chrome trim, to the fantastic colors (Mallorca Blue in my case), to the factory Brembo brakes, to the sleek lines, this car is a real head turner.
3. Handling - the handling performance of this car is unreal. Earlier today I had it up to 1.0G on the G-force indicator on an off-ramp, and even at this crazy g-force level there was no indication yet that the tires were losing traction. Simply amazing.
4. Mod potential - I am a pretty serious car modding enthusiast. My first car was a 1993 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD. I poured at least $10000 into upgrades in that car. The only thing that prevented that from being higher was the fact it was written off after I crashed into a ditch because of loose gravel on the road near a corner. My next car was a 2003 Nissan Maxima SE, that car had somewhere around $15000 in upgrades. But those two cars modded pale in comparison to this one the way it came from the factory. It's crazy to think that with a piggyback tuner and spark plugs you can easily push up into 400 WHP range. The sky is truly the limit with regards to the potential of this car.
5. Value for your dollar - it's amazing how much you get in comparison to the competition. To get a similarly equipped Mercedes, BMW, Audi etc. you are easily spending 10-15000 more. While there are a few things I would have liked to be able to add on to the G70, it is truly a fantastic value proposition.
When the Kia Stinger was initially announced, I was seriously intrigued. Never had I seen such a tantalizing mix of performance, looks and luxury for such an affordable price. I was almost certain I would be purchasing one. But then something changed, Genesis announced the G70. This car takes things up a notch from the already amazing Stinger, as it's lighter, firmer suspension, more luxurious, more refined, and a more mature look. Genesis totally drilled this out of the park, massive kudos to them. And finally massive kudos to Kia/Hyundai/Genesis for the platform this is built on, it's created by enthusiasts for enthusiasts.
