    Equus Key Cover

    Ebay seller has an Equus leather key cover from Hyundai for $47. The Hyundai store sells them for $28, BUT you have to buy 50. Anyone know where we might score some cheap?

    Test drove an Equus today.

    I was at the dealer 90 miles away from me today to take a look at the Equus, and decided to test drive the 60K one. I must say it was a very nice ride and the steering wheel felt so loose and light when turning which I actually liked, and in sport mode it seemed to have changed the weight of the...

    Equus Car Cover

    Just thought I would pass this on. I had a BMW 740 IL that I traded when I got the Equus. The BMW car cover I kept fits the Equus EXACTLY!! Funny how that worked, he he.

    Custom Air Intakes for Genesis, Rspec, Equus!!!

    Since we don't have any vendors taking care of our performance needs, I am starting my own Genesis & Equus Performance Division. Using Abel Racing as my manufacturer, I have worked out group pricing if enough people are interested. Gambler: You may not solicit or sell items on this forum...

    What octane gas do you use in your Equus?

    I have been using regular unleaded gas in my Equus (87 octane) and the car has been running fine. Just to compare, the last time I filled up the car I used super at a 93 octane level. I can feel a difference. The car feels like it is accelerating faster. Almost like the car has more lower...

    2012 Equus Alcantara headliner

    There is no mention of the headliner being Alcantara Suede for 2012. Did this material carry over from the 2011 model year? Furthermore, I noticed that the 2012 Brochure has been greatly "cheapened" from the 2011 brochure. Strange considering the Equus was a sales success for 2011 you would...

    New Equus Owner

    Picked up my black/black ultimate on Tuesday. I am enjoying the car the more I drive it. Very happy I went with the ultimate. Several features I am using and appreciate I have (refrigerator, back seat storage, side window shades, rear reclining seat.) Traded in my 2009 Genesis 4.6...

    HUD likely coming to next generation Genesis and Equus

    Since the Kia K9 will be equipped w/ a HUD (heads-up display) system, it seems likely that the next gen Genesis will get it as well (the Equus will definitely get it). The K9's HUD system will display speed, danger signals, navigational data, rear and side obstacles (for those complaining about...

    Who's got the black Equus in Newtown, CT???

    Saw you this morning at the NYA... your car is BEAUTIFUL. That was my first look at a black one. So impressive pulling up, and just gorgeous up close. Congrats, whoever you are ;)

    New Equus Owner

    Just purchased a 2012 Ultimate and very impressed with the car. I traded a 2010 BMW 550i and I must say the Equus is much more car for the same money. I was also looking at the Audi A8 but to get one with all the same options as the Ultimate it was $30,000 more. Of course the Hyundai name will...

    2012 Equus Cat Delete

    After talking to the guys at Motorsports Authority, they're sending me the cat delete pipes to dyno the Horse. Even though you can "feel" the extra ponies after doing the K&N conversion using the factory piping, I've wondered what the actual output was. Now with the cat deletes, let's see if...

    Equus 5.0 V8 Air Intake for 15hp gain!

    Just installed on my Rspec 5.0 V8, ABEL Racing built and installed this Cone Air Intake. The 5.0 motors have "4" catalytic converters and very restrictive airboxes with secondary flapper valve for more restriction. When you install a CAI like this, you do a number of positive things: * 15...

    1st CAI for Rspec & Equus 5.0 V8

    ABEL Racing designed and installed this Cone Air Intake (CAI) today and we dynoed before and after results. CAI gives 15 Wheel Horsepower (15whp). * removed stock airbox assembly * add CAI We did dyno with MSA cat delete pipes for another 15whp gain. Total, 30whp gains is amazing. The...

    tried to trade my '09 4.6 for "used" Equus.

    My dealer where I service my car in Houston had an 2011 Equus Signature the owner drove for 5043 miles. My Genesis has 42K carefully driven miles and serviced every 3K miles. The sales man said with discounts etc the price would save about $5500. They came back to me with offering the Equus...

    2012 vs 2011 Equus

    I'm in the market for the Equus, and based on USAA pricing, I can get approximately $10k off the 2011 models, vs only about $4500 off the 2012 models (pricing includes all loyalty rebates, etc). Any opinions on whether the 2012 is worth the extra $5500 bucks for the new 5.0 GDI engine (more...

    Why did you choose Equus over Genesis?

    Greetings, and thanks to all of you who post such useful info on this site. For the past few months, I've been trying to decide between a 2012 Equuis Signature and 2012 Genesis 4.6. Both are excellent cars for their price points. Every time I think I've decided which way to lean, I find...
