How Can This Be? Dealer BS, Or Real?

"Gomila concluded that now is a good time for '09 Genesis customers to trade for a new 2010 model, even if they have time left on their leases, and end up with an equal or lower payment. "It's not often that this happens in the auto industry," he said. "But, it works because of the high residual value for a pre-owned Genesis."

Well, its a GM from a dealership saying to go buy a new car, so I'd take that with a grain of salt. I will state however that I was surprised to see the resale value of my Genesis on KBB/Edmunds was as high as it was.

If I owned a Genesis now, I don't think I'd bother trading until the new model comes out.

Tempting, in a way, but.... nahhhhhhhh

Reason number 1:

Sweat equity! I have used a clay bar on all of the black paint on this rather large sedan. I have applied [without use of an orbital buffer] two coats of Zaino-Z5 sealer/swirl remover. I'm not giving that to anybody else, trust me.

I liked the "Dealership within a Dealership" for Genesis and Equus.

The two Hyundai Dealerships I visit both are blocking off one area within their dealership for the Equus. Don't think they will have room to include the Genesis in that walled in area.
