  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Genesis GV80 Pictures

Something about this hue of blue coupled with the chrome that Genesis applied to the surface of the 22” wheels (sounds like they used sputtering)...love it!
Thanks for posting the pics - The blue looks a lot nicer in your pictures than the stock pics I have seen. They make it look more like a DARK Navy - I want to see this color in person one day. It is a BEAUTIFUL vehicle and I wish you luck with it.
 
Well I just received a survey from Fisheye.com..on behalf of Genesis ..
So keep an 👀 out...you can even submit a video from your phone😉!
I was told by my salesman that I should receive a survey from Genesis but so far nothing. Never did receive one with I purchased my G70, which really surprised me. I'm glad Genesis seems to care about your buying experience and ownership satisfaction

I wasn’t told anything about a survey, so we’ll see. Regardless, I took mine out for our first long drive since we purchased it about twelve days ago. Love it, but two big knocks on the interior: the rear leg room could be much better, even if it came at the expense of cargo space. My wife is 5’3” and was uncomfortable after just past an hour or so sitting in the back directly behind her 5’7” mom in the passenger seat, despite tuning all the possible seat adjustments. (Both had their winter coats on, so removing those may have helped a little.) The second knock is the door storage. It’s so useless that it won’t even accommodate a small water bottle (see my earlier post with the picture. Even a 2016 Porsche Cayenne did better when I drove that.

Was the rear seat adjusted to the rear? I’m surprised to hear space was tight. I’m 6’1” and I can comfortably “sit behind myself” in mine.

You must understand that there are trolls in this forum. My father who is 6'2" 275 pounds fit well in the 2nd row of my GV80.

Interesting comment on the rear space, that hasn't been our experience. I totally agree on the door storage, it's is almost worthless.

It doesn't make sense to me, either. I need someone else to drive it so I can sit in the back and assess for myself. My wife isn't comfortable driving it, and I suspect she is making a comparison to her parents' sedan - which isn't a fair comparison, since sedans generally trade off cargo space for improved cabin space, so of course the sedan will feel like it provides more leg room.
 
I didn't notice that, but my interpretation is "no open containers, closed containers only."
I find most 16.9 oz water bottles fit fine. Which is why I made the interpretation I did.

Love! The Himalayan Grey!!! Chose black interior. Love the lighter colors but scare me with staining.
