Hello!

I have been reading this forum for sometime over the last months as my honda accord approached 77k+ miles and it was only an 09.

I had to make a change soon. I was originally thinking of the Venza and then the Murano but I said I would look at Genesis one more time.

I was not looking for a new one, but an 09-10. I found one and I jumped on it. Although I had to drive 600+ miles to get it, I am proud to say I am the owner of a 09 Genesis fully loaded. It just turned over to 12k miles. It was the dealers wife's car. It is white with beige interior.

I tried to look for a new members area, but was unable to find it.

If there is anything I need to know or should know please let me know!

**Just found out the mirrors turn down when the mirrors are turned to the driver while in reverse!**

One thing;

1. Dealer only had one key fob, so as I have been reading I need to see if the one I have is the "special" one so I can purchase and program the other.

Six hundred miles is nothing, if you get to drive the Genny home!

Be careful with the key fob. Used ones, as I understand it, cannot be re-programed. There should be threads on this; try "search."

Enjoy!!

Congrats Godsson!

I just bought my 2011 4.6 last Thursday. It was manager's special (demo/loner) but was sold as new, and they also had only one key fob. They got second one in a couple of days and programed it for free.

Welcome. 2009 Tech, nice car. I also own a 2009 Tech Black/Black. Love it.

I am enjoying it! How did you get the illuminated door seals? Did you have to wire something to get power/light to them? The only thing I miss is the lights on upon exit that my accord had. But am still loving it!

Welcome aboard! My first Genesis was a white with beige 4.6 tech. Enjoy it!

Welcome. I think with the Genesis you should be good to go 250k miles or more. I have a 2011 with 76k on it now and plan on 300k miles before selling it. I think maybe your Honda would have gone 250k for you; my 2004 Acura was going strong at 239k miles when I sold it.
