    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

After a 6 month wait I picked up my 2.5T Prestige last week! In love with the vehicle and this colour combo. I guess Himalyan Grey on Ultramarine Blue is forbidden fruit in the USA. Sorry not sorry....View attachment 43064View attachment 43059View attachment 43060View attachment 43061View attachment 43058
Thanks for these. As Genesis Canada is too lazy / cheap to show pictures of the actual trim differences in their configurator it's great to see what parts of the Sport trim are provided and what the seats actually look like. The 2.5 Prestige is kind of the sweet spot in the lineup, giving the majority of the features of the 3.5 Sport Plus. As much as I'd like the 3.5 at $76K it's more than I'm prepared to spend.

Where do you live?…. Those wheels on the top 2.5 Sport Pestige are not available in the US either, only the 3.5, not a big fan of the waffle iron wheels and would have preferred these if they were an option
I'm in Canada here. Yeah it's a shame they don't give the options of choosing the wheel design. While I do like the 21" option, I can see how some people wouldn't.

Couldn't agree more about the 2.5 Prestige being the sweet spot. I test drove both the 2.5 and 3.5 before making a decision. The performance of the 2.5 surprised me and for an SUV, I really didn't feel that extra 75hp was enough to make me spend another $12k.
 
2C76B784-AECF-4717-933D-1609E71EC906.webpTook delivery of my Mauna Red/Black 2.5 Sport Prestige, which I have named “Red Rover.” In love with it. The red in photos online looks blown out and bright, but in person it is deeper and a very good red.

Coming from a Cadillac XT4. The build quality is light years beyond Cadillac and the driving is much more refined. I almost can’t believe the difference actually.

It’s very quiet on the road, has plenty of power, and sport+ mode is fun. Also the sound system is really crisp.

I am so glad I joined you all. I am a previous Genesis owner, 2015, the Cadillac in between, and came back to the brand.

I had ordered a 3.5 Sport Prestige Mauna Red with Ultramarine Blue interior because there were none to be had in the US. I love that red but reconsidered because I live on a dirt road and the dust issue would be a problem. Found a Saville Silver with the Ultramarine Blue interior and I love it... but every time I see that red I'm jealous!

I want to see a pic of yours. Silver and grey were my other two choices.
 
Like many of the Genesis colors the Saville Silver looks very different in different lighting
It’s very beautiful. I am a little jealous too. 😉

I’m not a new owner, got delivery of the GV70 at the end of July, but since I haven’t posted on this thread before, I guess it counts.

For this post, I won’t be going into my driving impressions or ownership experience, since I’ve waxed poetic in many past threads. I will summarize by saying that The GV70 is my favorite automobile that I’ve ever owned, and with my red/red advanced 3.5TT, I look forward to holding on to it as long as I can afford the fuel or ”they” will let me! Lol

My father in law purchased a Cardiff green/beige 3.5TT advanced shortly after we did, and I had an opportunity for a photo shoot of both. Enjoy.
