    1st post! New R-Spec owner

    Hello to all! I've been lurking while my lease was ending on 2011 Lexus GS350. Just purchased 2013 R-Spec!! I've had car for two weeks and I'm very happy I got away from Lexus. (Great car, but they got too pricey and too ugly for my taste.) Never been happier w/ a new vehicle than I am w/ the...

    1st Problem...70k Miles...Opinion on Loaner Too.

    My Genesis has sat in the driveway, for almost two years....unless driven by my wife on one of the two days she works. Because I had been racking up miles so fast, I decided to get a 2nd car, and try to ease up on putting miles on the Genesis. The 2012 VW GLI, I had for 19k, miles was traded...

    Test drove my 1st Genesis!

    Bentley Hyundai in Huntsville, AL has a used 2012 3.8 Genesis with only 1600 miles which I took for a spin recently. Overall, my wife and I were very impressed by the car, especially the fit and finish of the interior. However, there was one exterior detail that bothered me a little, the soft...

    Got my 1st parking lot ding.

    I believe it happened in the church parking lot and I got a hunch how it happened but I can't prove anything. But it's all good though. Of course I hate getting the ding but I'm not OCD about it. I've seen youtube clips about using dry ice to pull out dings. Has anyone ever tried this? If so...

    Did your dealer "help" with 1st tire replacement?

    It has been discussed in this forum that the tires that come on the base model (not sure of others) the Dunlop SP5000 rarely last past 20K miles (at least in warm weather). I am curious to find out if your dealer did anything in terms of paying for some of the cost of the 1st replacement set of...

    2012 sedan - 2 rear-end accidents before 1st payment!

    I haven't even made my first payment on my brand new car, and I've been rear-ended twice! First time was March 23rd, hit real hard - whiplash headrest deployed and car held up good, despite needing a new bumper and a little underside body work ($3800 total). I get the car back two weeks later...

    Rspec 1st wax & tinted windows

    Just got the 1st wax done. Amazing what you learn about your car when you become familiar with every nook and cranny! Impressed with this car. Got a good tint job done yesterday. Sure makes the black on the Rspec wheels pop!

    2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe - 1st Official Images

    The front looks better here than in the photoshopped image that went around last week. Early reports are suggesting 260HP for the 2.0T and 340HP for the 3.8 w/ another 8-10HP or so on premium fuel.

    Questions about 1st Genesis purchase

    I've been looking for a Genesis (black/black with Tech) for about 4 months and finally found one (albeit 245 miles away). It's a certified 2009 4.6 with 35k miles for ~$25,500. Carfax is clean, 1 owner, etc. First Q: I'm in MN, and there is a lack of Genny's for sale here. Is this a good...

    Saw 1st dedicated Genesis TV commercial.

    "Hyundai has always had your back...now it has your back pinned against the seat." Or something like that. It's for for the R-spec. Black R-spec driving at night. Quick cuts through the interior. Shot of the engine. Pretty half hearted commerical for an extraordinary car imo. Odd it...

    1st V8 spotted here!

    Its about time. A V8 finally hit the lot today, too bad its black but I am going to drive it anyway. Circle pricing lists it at $1500 more than a v6 prem/tech. I'll give you the details if no one else does today.

    Manually Shifting 1st Gear Jerking

    I have been trying to adjust to a driving issue that other may have felt. If I have the trans in manual mode 1st gear and accelerate from a stop with 3/4 pedal of full pedal the car will jerk twice without additional pedal if I try to accelerate again right after. I find it a problem when I need...

    My 1st 3 Hours in Genesis = High Tech Interface = AMAZING!

    Who else can appreciate this stuff: With a 3hr drive ahead of me at 9pm, I had ample time to learn and program my "tech package" in my Genesis. What an experience: My iPhone phonebook downloaded before I left the dealer. Amazing! My 1st hour, I programmed my AM/FM/XM presets & favorites...

    Not happy with 1st need for service issue

    The Steering wheel power tilt & telescope limit switch needs replacing on my 3 month old Genesis. My Dealer service department says the part is back-ordered nation wide. So I'm left driving a car for over 3 weeks now that is becoming increasingly uncomfortable due to a steering wheel squeezing...

    At 12K making my 1st visit to the dealer

    I've had my 2010 Genesis Sedan serviced locally by a good technician at a non-dealer shop for its 1st 12K miles, but now (for the 1st time), I am taking it to the dealer's service department. What should I ask him to do or look at in addition to fixing my specific problem under warranty...

    After 16 months my 1st disappointment

    16,600 miles later and the wear bars on the tires are quite prominent. I consider myself an average driver and have owned many cars over the last 50 years but I never had to replace 4 tires at 16K miles. Tomorrow I will spend $1000 to replace all 4 tires .. I might have had 1 to 2 thousand...
