    5.0 Ultimate Discontinued?

    I was just told that the 2015 5.0 Ultimate is discontinued by a salesman in Arizona (Scottsdale Chapman). I'm assuming this is BS based on how pushy the guy has been already, but has anyone heard anything?

    5.0 Ultimate via pics?

    I'm searching for available 2015 Genesis' online and many times the site either doesn't advertise the car has the Ultimate package or it falsely advertises it. Is there a distinguishing feature, like a button on one of the switch panels where I would be able to tell if it's indeed a 5.0 with...

    Just picked a 2014 5.0... Have a couple questions

    Bought it used from a Volvo dealership that picked it up at auction. Absolutely flawless car with only 8000 miles. Unfortunately it only had one key and no manual. Questions I have: 1) Can I download the manual from somewhere? 2) I read that you can use regular unleaded, but the HP is...

    did you buy the 5.0 or 3.8 and why?

    Looking to see why folks went one way or the other. I went with the 5.0 because I prefer the effortless highway luxo cruiser experience it provided. I really liked the lighter steering of the 3.8 and awd would have been nice, but in the end I didn't need awd in such a heavy car in my area...

    2015 Genesis 3.8 owners: Do you wish you bought the 5.0?

    It's a simple question and doesn't really need a lot of justification. I'm posting this for the prospective owners that are on the fence over the 3.8 V6 or the 5.0 V8. In my case I bought the AWD, and if the the AWD was available with a 5.0 in the States, I probably still would have gone for a...

    5.0 vs. 3.8 decision again

    Well, you may have seen my previous post about my 5.0 Empire State gray being wrecked. It looks like it is going to be classified as a total loss. Unfortunately the other driver is underinsured and I will have to go through my insurance company which will require me to spend at least the...

    Exhaust Diagram for 5.0 V8

    Does anyone have a diagram for the stock exhaust on the 5.0 V8. I might be doing some custom exhaust down the road and want a diagram to see where the cats and resonators are. Any help on this is always appreciated.

    5.0 Highway - much better than EPA rating

    I just completed a 6 hr round trip from DC to DE and I was easily getting 27mpg on the highway. How is EPA only rating it as 23? Is mine some kind of a freak? :cool:

    2014 Genesis 5.0 or 5.0 R-spec

    Hello, I just purchased a 2014 Genesis 5.0. I am trying to figure out if it is an R-spec or not. Everything I have found from the VIN number through Auto Check says that it is a R-spec and I can not find anything that says the Hyundai even made the base 5.0 in 2013 or 2014, only the R-spec for...

    Blizzak LM-32s for the 5.0 ordered today

    First snow accumulation on the roads in NE Ohio today. Genny was a handful on the OEM Hankooks. Even in SNOW mode, which just seemed to start the car in 2nd gear didn't help. The car slid all over the road today. I had to purchase a set of LM-60s for the 2011 4.6 and once I did the car was a...

    2013 hyundai genesis 5.0 r spec transmission

    Hello everyone. New here because I have been checking out the Hyundai genesis 5.0 r spec for a while. I was looking at the 2013 genesis 5.0 r spec. I stayed away from this vehicle at the beginning because of the slow shifting transmission. I noticed that the 2013 models 8 speed shifts faster...

    2015 5.0 Tire Rotation Question

    Probably a stupid question, but can you rotate the tires on the 2015 ultimate? I know they are staggered so you can't do the traditional rotation, but can you switch the fronts with each other and the rears with each other? The last time I had a car with staggered tires they were directional so...

    intermittent electrical bugs -2012 5.0

    just purchased this car a few months back with 16k on her certified. coming from a 09 4.6, i definitely feel the difference. the suspension is noticeably better, especially going over bumps, but a stiffer ride. more power and stiffer steering, but overall, i like the car. she's got 20500 miles...
