    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.

Hey everyone. I just purchased a 2012 Genesis 3.8 with tech and premium. Upon startup the nav screen says "Genesis Prada". Have any of you ever heard of such a thing? I've read up on the Prada version of the Genny but never heard of anything translating over to North America. Thanks.
 
Cool
 
Tark, perhaps your dealer installed the wrong TSB firmware?
 
Genesis Prada (2009)It is a limited (3 units) version of Genesis sedan produced with European fashion label Prada, designed at Hyundai's R&D center in Namyang and at Prada's Design Center in Italy, it included The exterior body colour was painted in matte metallic midnight blue, combined with metal parts in titanium, dark matte plated gold replaces the existing shining chrome for the radiator grill, the emblem, and the outer handles. The dashboard and the upholstery were wrapped in Saffiano leather. Other features include a 20-inch alloy wheel and an outer antenna with edge shape.

The vehicle was unveiled in 2009 Seoul Motor Show. One car was kept by Hyundai, while the remaining two were auctioned for charity and the income would be donated to an institution announced at a later stage

Can you take a picture?
 
A little background on the car. I work F and I for a local Hyundai dealer. The car was a demo for the regional Hyundai Financial rep. Noone here knows why the nav unit says Prada on startup. Figured I'd shoot it to you folks and see if anyone has ever seen anything like this. I thought it was pretty cool. I'll work on getting you guys a picture/video today.

Order some PRADA emblems off of ebay and your good to go.
 
Actually, any Genesis with DIS (tech pack) can access this feature.

1. Toggle yourself into the Engineering Menu
2. 0324 for the advanced menu
3. Variant Menu
4. System Variant Menu
5. Enable Prada Version (Most bottom option)

Shut down, start up - enjoy :)
 
Prada option is not on my 2011 4.6 however, I do have an option to change it to Equus.
 
It may be restricted to 2012 MY cars, as that is when the Prada variant was launched to production.
