  • 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.

Genesis GV80
Bought my 1st MB in 1974, and most since have mostly MB or Lexus. Well, a week ago I saw a GV80 in a parking lot and here I am! Watched enough videos on YouTube and was impressed enough to say " why not?"
Got it Monday, Feb. 24 and have put on 450 miles test driving.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
1. Comfortable. Quiet on the road. Reasonably good handling except for more roll than I like. 22" do contribute to a slightly harsher ride over bumps.
2. The Prestige 3.5 is LOADED with features that make for an excellent VALUE! Unfortunately, all the high tech features result in a LONG learning curve.
Love the new screen
3. Beautiful in/out
4. Sadly, the navigation, as is sucks! Indicates wrong turns, convoluted routes, etc . Going to service Tuesday for software update that I hope will resolve the issue.

Overall, very happy and excited with my new ride!

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Conflagrations on your brand new Genesis GV80! What did the GV80 replace for you? I'm glad to see you're happy to far... Regarding navigation - let us know how it goes. Have you tried Google Maps or one of the other types of navigation apps out there? I'm finding that they're generally better than the ones provided by the automobile manufacturers these days...
