  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

It doesn't look like there are any other changes that I can see. Just the Matte paint option in the Prestige Matte trim.

Found one: On some colors, there is a BLACK/BEIGE W/ METALLIC POREFILLER interior option.

I'm showing this in the 2021 Catalog. Second one down. It was only available on the Saville Silver, Himalayan gray and Vik Black.

Right, it also looks like the online configurator isn't picking up the actual image, which is why it's coming up black.

The big news…there doesn’t seem to be any second row Captain’s chairs.

I cannot see the attachment, it wants me to download (which I don't do from web sites), but have a question. Did they say it was going to be in the US? Here I'm hearing that it was to be called the "special edition" originally now called the Prestige Matte. There was no Prestige Signature that could be found by my salesman on the US site. Perhaps the Prestige Signature was what it was called in the Korea market with the captains chairs we know they got a version that had them (or were going to) from photos online.

I'm surprised the brochure doesn't show any new non-matte colors. Canada configurator says Mauna Red is available on trims below Prestige. Korea gets Barossa Burgundy. Having no colors in the red/brown scale (Lima Red and GCS having been previously discontinued) seems like a miss.

Can't answer as to why but different countries get different option and color choices.

Signature content is peppered throughout the brochure. I recall someone saying the Signature models might only come in matte colors, but I could be wrong.

Right, I'm aware other countries get different color options. Korea's blue and gray colors are different than US. It just seems an odd choice given color variety is a big differentiator for Genesis (see Cardiff Green). Discontinuing Lima and not replacing it with Mauna or Barossa seems short-sighted.

Thank you for posting. It does sound like the Korean version of the GV80 to me in this brochure with the colors and options. As I mentioned the "Signature" version was never shown on the dealer side in the US (as per my salesman). Only the "Special Edition" which they didn't know what it would entail until recently when it became the "Prestige Matte" for the matte colors which still doesn't have the options shown in the Korea "Signature" trim above. The US Prestige Matte doesn't come with these wheels shown in the brochure as per the US web site either they are the standard Prestige wheels. It's just a Matte finish paint that has been added to the Prestige trim level on the US site.

It's possible I guess but it was sent to me by the Genesis concierge service U.S. I wouldn't think Genesis in one country would be sending the specs. from another country. Like all these things it's all subject to change and there is no mention of the timing of when these options will be available. Maybe call Genesis concierge for clarification.
