Hope some of you can take the time to judge the deal I got. My 2012 gen & $25 k cash for empire gray with ivory interior ultimate package. Dealer through in tint mud gaurds all weather floor mats rebadge and wheelocks. My gen had 22,000 mi. and was good to me a pleasure to drive. But when I drove the 15 there was no going back.

Congrats on the new ride! Make the dealer take their emblem off before leaving the lot, as well as validate that XM data with traffic and weather is working.

3.8 RWD, 3.8 AWD, 5.0? But what does is matter? You made the deal - why would you care what anyone here thinks after the fact? Just enjoy the car!

Hi Nikger it was just a 3.8 RWD. I have a lot of respect for who runs this site and the people like you that take their time to help out someone that is new to this and can only hope they didn't get beat. Thanks for your input. MELLOW

Genesiswannabee,
I just bought 2015 V6 AWD Ultimate in Empire State Gray w/black interior today. Dealer had same vehicle available in Parisian Gray, so I had the opportunity to see them side by side. Parisian Gray was obviously lighter in color, had a little blueish hue, depending on the lighting. I liked the darker Empire State gray better, maybe just because I've been driving a light silver Audi for years. No pictures yet, picking up from dealer in 3 days.

id pick the parisian over the empire at. too bad hyundai wasnt aware enough to offer a dark dark gray instead of a medium dirty gray. dark gray almost black would have been the stellar gray of choice.

Good choice - I have the Empire State Grey as well and love the color. I had a Parisian Grey loaner for 2 weeks and, while nice, I did not like it in all lighting - it could take on odd color casts to me in some conditions. Empire State Grey looks consistently good in all lighting and doesn't seem to pick up any off-color casts like the Parisian Gray does.

Just paid $39k even for new 2015 3.8 rwd with tech package, rebadge,mud guards, wheel locks, cargo tray, first aid kit.
in S Cal. Received $18k even for 2013 genny 3.8 base
model with 26k miles perfect condition. You always
will get 10-15% less at least than market on dealer trade. I do
not have time or facility to sell so I took the $18k.
You paid $45k for 3.8 ultimate which I have seen listed at $49k

You did just fine as did I. Enjoy your new wheels.
I am amazed at how much nicer in all regards the
2015 vs 2013 presents. Ride, interior, tech all off the
hook. Very happy owner.
