  • 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.

New Owners Pictures and Reviews

Traded Q7 for 3.5T Sport Advanced Mauna Red/Aquamarine Blue yesterday. Posted a few Pics for reference. Quick thoughts:

Aquamarine Blue is subtle and elegant. Maybe a bit lighter than it appears in the Genesis stock photos.
The ride is smooth but not plush. Its a blend of aggressive sport and luxo float.
I'm neutral on the Advanced 19" wheels. The 21" on the Prestige are way nicer.
Its quick! As advertised. A pleasure to drive. Tight and responsive.
Quilted leather seats are very nice.

Since you are going to ask, paid MSRP. No market adjustment or add on's (Arizona). Market adjustment is probably location dependent, if they are very popular and supply doesn't meet demand then probably. Or if in California pony up....

do you think better than q7

They are so different its hard to compare. Q7 was spouses car and she was an Audi snob, but loves and raves about the GV70. I'd take it for sure over a Q5 or SQ5. GV80 vs a Q7 would be a better comparison.

Don’t care for the looks of the GV80.

Is that Himalayan Gray with Vanilla Beige? Best color combo there is, just a little biased

LOL it is! I already put Gyeon Leather Shield on it as soon as I got home. Not taking a chance on those white.
 
I used Chemical Guys leather products on mine. You're right, got to protect that white.
 
Wow. How did you do the caliper.?
Ron from Custom Calipers did mine. Honestly such a good guy, he came to the house early and ended in the afternoon. He does most of the Lamborghinis in Laguna Beach. I wanted the Genesis emblem so he made it happen as well as a custom deeper red color to mend with my Sevilla red interior.

I got a 2.5T Advanced. I had my heart set on Savile Silver/Havana Brown, but couldn’t find it anywhere and opted for my second choice Alta White/Vanilla Beige. (I didn’t feel strongly between Uyuni and Alta when I saw them in person, and Alta was what the dealer had on hand with the Vanilla Beige interior.) I have ZERO regrets. Actually happy I got this color combination in the end, as it’s stunning! Honestly, I think the GV70 looks beautiful in any color combination.

Looks beautiful. I like pure white, but Vanilla Beige is growing on me.

Can you post more pics of the interior please? A few day time pics of dashboard, seats and a full view of the front will be highly appreciated
