  • 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.

I have a dilemma and I need help resolving it.

I have been a member of this forum for about 1 1/2 years now, and have anxiously been waiting for the 2012 Genesis refresh to come out. I had mentally committed to myself to either buying a 2012 Genesis or a MB E350, with the decision based upon my impression of the ride of the 2012 Genesis, although being a Think Tank member I knew emotionally that I really preferred the Genesis.

Well after driving the 2012 I decided to purchase the Genesis. I finally pulled the trigger and purchased a 2012 Genesis 4.6 Titanium with Saddle from Fitzgerald in Clearwater which I will be picking up when I start my FL vacation on 8/7. I will flying down to Tampa and then going to The Villages, where I have rented a house for 3 weeks. After FL I'm driving back to CT after stopping to visit clients along the way. I am so excited, I can't wait for the saga to start.

Now for my dilemma. As many of you are aware my name is Genesiswannabee. I'm struggling with keeping the same screen name after I pick up my vehicle in 13 days when I will pass from the ranks of wannabees

Any name change suggestions would be appreciated.

This is exact combination I'm thinking to get. No dealer around me has Titanium with saddle. How do colors look? Is it dark brown or medium brown?
Do you have pictures?
How was the ride in 4.6?

Looking to update and upgrade your Genesis luxury sport automobile? Look no further than right here in our own forum store - where orders are shipped immediately!
^ LOL!

That's what immediately came to mind.
 
i just got back from an hour ride in a 2010 E350 (white/tan only 17k miles, loaded) and have to say outside of the passenger memory seat and the panaramic moon roof i can't feel or tell a difference between the 2. I think the MB is more floaty, handles worse and has as much "impact harshness" as my 4.6 Driving over expansion joints it was noisy and you felt them the same way you feel them in my car and on smooth roads the Genesis rides better, even with what everyone considers the dreaded horrible Dunlops.

Congrats on your purchase and you should leave your screen name the way it is. It is who you are and can be a funny story in some dead thread someday. just update the "drives a genesis in his/her dreams" .. Best of luck with the car, report back on all aspects thanks!!

i drove a new 2011 E350 last month, and i think the genesis 4.6 is better, mainly due to the smoother and more powerful engine. however, the E550 that i drove next was even better than the genesis 4.6, with a well controlled, luxurious ride.

Was it $15,000 better?

oh, the e550 is more like $20k+ more expensive, so not worth it to me. also, i don't want to appear very flashy by going with a MB or BMW.

it was the first time i road in this car (it's his wife's) and since owning the genesis i was able to compare what i know in my 4 months of ownership compared to a well equipped (albeit more expensive) similar car. i was not impressed. only the multi adjustment pass seat and the roof, otherwise the nav sucked, the car looks dated and it's new?? the ride was no better and on the smooth roads can't hold a candle to my 4.6 with the crap dunlops, so other than an E63 i would have no want for the benz..
