  • 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.

With cars like the Lincoln Continental/Town Car and Cadillac Fleetwood, DeVille, DTS, CT6 gone from America, the G90 is an impressive way to get that experience (only better). What vehicle did you have before the G90?

my 2020 G90 replaced my 2015 Hyundai Genesis 5.0... pretty much the same car but bigger. With trade in, I paid about $37k for my G90... was kinda hard to say no...
 
Looking to update and upgrade your Genesis luxury sport automobile? Look no further than right here in our own forum store - where orders are shipped immediately!
2019 Toyota Avalon
Now that's a huge upgrade! But I must admit, I've always liked the Avalon. It's a good, quality automobile with a good amount of luxury. But the 2022 G90 is one heck of an upgrade. :)
 
2015 Benz S550 in AMG trim
Great car! But boy do those maintenance bills add up. What year is your G90? And how does it compare to the S550? I believe you had the 20 or 21 inch wheels. That firmed up the ride quite a bit for an S-Class...
 
Great car but I'm sure the 2021 G90 is a big upgrade.
Not really. The G90 has a more spacious rear, but I only use it for myself so it makes no difference to me. My LS460 had air suspension, the feeling on the driver's/passenger's seats was roomier due to the G90s massive center console which pushes your right leg to center, plus the door panels feel closer to my left leg as well; the Mark Levinson was better than the Lexicon, and it had simple touchscreen interface I liked. The G90 wins on new safety tech, the HUD display, styling inside and out, and Genesis connected features. It's a close second on Comfort(Rear) mode, to the Comfort mode on the LS460 air suspension. I'm don't regret my purchase, but my LS460 was one hell of a ride, even 10 years later.
 
Replaced a Base 2017 G80, which replaced a 2013 Genesis Sedan. The 2013 was nicely optioned, the 2017 was not.

The only thing i don't like is the Nav System, 2019 not being a full Touch screen
 
I replaced my 2014 Lexus LS460 F Sport with my 2017 G90 5.0 Ultimate. The only thing missing is service.
 
A 2012 Buick Lacrosse, Touring. Had 230k miles when I traded it in. I purchased it used with 6k miles on it. Besides 1 break change, 1 tune up, tires, and battery. Nothing else was ever replaced. I hope my G90 will do the same.
 
BMW 750Li
 
A fully loaded 2012 Genesis sedan. I still love the exterior and LED strip in the headlights on that one, it got compliments even in 2021. That being said, I love the more understated G90 look also, and everything on the inside is so much better in the G90 Ultimate...
 
I had a 2017 Kia Cadenza Limited which, while it was a perfectly nice vehicle, just didn't float my boat. Between the FWD dynamics and the slightly frumpy styling, I drove the Cadenza for only 18 months before I sold it to Carvana. Thanx to Covid, Carvana gave me a helluva number on the sale.

Prior to the Kia I had scored a unicorn lease deal on a '15 Hyundai Genesis Utimate ($332/ mo.) I loved the Genesis, but at the end of the lease the buyout figure was way above the value of the car, so I turned it in.

I found a CPO '18 G90 Premium w/ 22k miles in May of 2021, and have been loving driving it so far.
