New Casablanca White G70 Owner Review

[uncle_fester]

I just picked up a 3.3 AWD Sport in Casablanca White with black leather/red stitching this week. Wow, I have never been this obsessed with any car I have owned in the past and few of them were German. This car is sexy as hell and pictures/videos do not do it justice. Every time I park it I can't stop staring back as I walk away. I managed to even get my wife jealous the way I stare at the car. The casablanca white is the best color I have seen for this car in my opinion although I have never seen a Siberian Ice in person (and all my previous cars have been black but black is not my cup of tea for the G70). Personally, I love the 19" 5 spoke rims as it shows off the Brembo brakes and contrasts well with the white. Living in Toronto, I have only seen a couple G70s on the road and this car turns heads!! I love how exclusive this car is as the streets are flooded with Infiniti, Audis, BMWs.

I knew going in that the G70 is amazingly fun to drive, but this exceeded my expectations, especially on Sport Mode with the paddle shifting. WOW!!! Why would anyone need a faster car than this? Don't forget the crazy tech features this car comes with which would be only available for the highest package in a German car. I just wish the exhaust was a tad bit louder and the fuel economy could be better.

All in all, I would say that I got much more value than I paid for. Trust me, I was a brand whore and would have never considered a Korean made car until I learned about the G70. I would make any little excuse to get a chance to drive this baby. I do not have any regrets and can't be any happier with my purchase.

Congrats !! Question...where you able to see the new 2020 Uyuni White color? Wondering how different it is from the 2019 Casablanca White. The new white looks more pearl from pictures.

Enjoy !

Thanks! No I have not seen that one as I got this used from Hyundai dealer so choices were limited. I personally do not like pearl white for sports cars.

Congrats.

Congrats from a fellow casablanca white owner! Tints and black wheels go so well with the white paint. I would get pulled over weekly with tints in my area unfortunately.

Congrats, @uncle_fester ! Don’t know which is better — your handle or the “brand whore” label!

WOW that's beautiful! I'm usually not a fan of white cars, but CW is stunning!

Thank you! Yes totally agree. Tints are definitely a must. I would like to get the tail lights smoked too

Awesome! Do you have any pics?

 

[nellie1289]

The sport model already has darker tinted rear lights than the standard model.

 

[mussonking]

Awesome! Do you have any pics?

Not the best pictures, but that's all i have yet

 

[uncle_fester]

Not the best pictures, but that's all i have yet

Woah nice! Definitely getting mine done the same

Congrats! Did you say you got it used? How many miles were on it? How much off MSRP was it? Did they say why it was used? I ask because I am shocked a car this new is used, and I am just curious. Thanks.

 

[Toddasaurus]

My taillights are tinted as well, though not nearly as dark as his. I wanted mine to be more subtle, and not scream "I MODIFIED MY CAR! ZOMG LOOK AT MEEEEE!"




Also, this picture makes my windows look darker than they usually look. Haha.

Lastly, SS best color.

I like the subtle look better as well. Hahaha SS is nice definitely one of the better for G70, but white is best IMO.
