Anyone else looking for one of these? Availability looks to be non-existent yet (at least in Northeast). Would welcome info on where a black one is in stock.
Have you checked with a dealer? - Tell them you're ready to buy and let them do the 'legwork' for you.
Yes, I have a price from a local dealer and they are looking to do a swap...but are only going out a certain radius (from NJ). I was using Hyundai Circle search function to see if I can find one farther out but no luck. Was just curious to find anyone else also looking for one of these.
Here's the deal. By the time you add the tech Package to the V6 Genesis, you are only 1-2 grand away from the V8 which has the tech Package std. This is why the vehicle may be so hard to find. If someone is going to add the tech package, they'll probably be looking at the V8.
Might as well get the V8. You'll be glad you did.
And the car will be much easier to find.

If you are in NJ call the Eastern Region in Monroe Township, NJ. Tell them about your problem and let them help you: 1-609-395-7001
Ask for Customer Relations. They can look ahead and see what is incoming through the Port of Balimore. They can do alot if you make friends.

It sounds like you know a lot about the Hyundai system so I'll ask you a question if I may.
I just bought a new 2011 V8 over the weekend. Wanted a Sapphire Blue but nothing in MA. So had to order it from a local dealer. I had previously spoken to NJ customer service - nice person there - had hoped that he could identify a car on a boat or on the wharf that they could ship to the dealer. But no luck.
Is there a way to expedite the quoted 6 week shipping time by obtaining one that is already here or on the boat?
Many thanks

The issue is one that is quite irrantional. Hyundai Korea makes what they want and it does not equate with current demand in the United States regarding model, options and color. You can tell me its nuts and I won't disagree, but its the fact. BTW other foreign manufacturers do the same so don't jump solely on top of Hyundai.
So if a car is scarce, not being shipped or available at dealers only as a demo, as my chocie was, there is little you can do except make friends with Region and see what they can do for you. Yelling and screaming will not help and special ordering I have been told several times is not allowed. Hyundai USA has to play by the Korean playbook.
I got my car after a situation arose that gave me an advanatge. Also learn to speak Hyundai's language; there are many terms that they use. In your conversations with dealer and/or region listen for them and play them back. For example a 2010 Genny in Pearl black, saddle inetrior, fully loaded is B0462 my screen name. They are surprised when you use their inside language.
If car is not available on on the boat I do not know of any way to expedite.
Good hunting
