Wife's car is a 2014 Mercedes E350 which I frequently drive. Today, I drove a 2015 Genesis sedan 3.8 L V6. I must...

    Looking to buy my first Genesis. 2011 v8 vs 2012 v6

    I am trying to decided between a 2011 Genesis with the 4.6 V8 and tech package vs a 2012 with the v6 and tech package. Is there anything that should pull me towards one or the other.

    Quick video of the V6 AWD Genesis doing 60-90MPH. Not the best video, I kind of just decided to do it out of the blue. :/ http://youtu.be/ZxTDHtGa96M

    2015 Hyundai Genesis V8 vs V6

    From the reviews I'm reading, it sounds like the V8 is really only good for bragging rights. The car weighs 400lbs more with the V8 and apparently doesn't even handle as well as the V6 without the CDC suspension... http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1091296_2015-hyundai-genesis-first-drive...

    2013 V6 Tech/Premium with Fuzzy Audio

    I purchased a new 2013 V6 tech/premium Genesis sedan about a month ago and have been struggling to determine if there really is an issue with the sound system in this car or not. Sometimes I hear an issue, and sometimes I don't, so pinpointing the problem has been frustratingly difficult. I can...

    Another Newbie 2012 v6

    I have a "new to me" 2012 w/ the tech package (I think). It has the control knob on the center console and the Lexicon stereo. I think I've figured out most of the gizmos but I have a few questions. Is there an actual key? The door handles have a key hole. Is it hidden in the remote? Is...

    Possible Horsepower Increase for '15 V6

    At SEMA Hyundai announced the availability, commencing in December, of "crate motors". In particular they will offer a 3.8 V6 with 348hp and 295 ft. lb. torque @$9K each. This is up from the '13 model's 333hp. I think it is likely that this 348hp motor will be the 3.8 offering in the 2015...

    Was V6 always this good?

    I own a 2011 4.6 V8 and love, but Hertz recently gave me a 2013 V6 for my monthly run from LAX to Phoenix. Engine was very responsive with plenty of power. The cruise control was set for 80 on I-10 with lots of reserve for passing. Fuel mileage was an honest 32 for the trip. Car felt more...

    Joined the club 3.8 v6 base.

    Got a white 2012 3.8 v6 base so far loving it, was either this or a 2012 Camry SE. While the Camry was fully loaded this thing is on a different league. So far impressed with the fuel enconomy and power of the v6, since it's my daily driver and road trip car it serves it's purpose nicely...

    Any 2012 V6 owners wish they went Rspec?

    The toughest choice when I bought my Genesis was whether or not to get a Rspec or the V-6. I always believe more power is better, And if given the choice with no additional cost I would rather have 430 hp, But the new 333 hp V-6 has never left me wanting. At the time I bought my car they were...
