Comes with the Elite package i think.

 

[Reave]

Which one?

The right one lol.

Regarding the badging, I think it def adds to the "mystique" of the car cause nobody knows what the G70 is. I am not a fan of the "HTRAC" badge so taking that off was good.

I think it looks good debadged. I'll probably drop the htrack badge, the rest don't offend me.

You mentioned your car just came from the port, I was wondering what's the date the car was manufactured? May 2018?

Well folks…got my G70 !!!! Not in my hands yet…but it’s been located and I will probably close out the deal within a couple of weeks. All that is left is getting the car from the port to the dealer lot. I have my Window Sticker and VIN already.

3.3T Sport AWD in Siberian Ice with Gray stitching. My choice from the beginning.

Since both the Richmond, VA dealers have no clue what they are doing (no Franchise Licenses yet)…I had to buy elsewhere. I ended up dealing with Genesis of Alexandria. But…there is more to it. So…thought I’d share my story.

As most of you know…prior to the car landing on lots…I was calling everyone. LOL. They all know my name. From upper management to the South/East sales manager. What can I say…I’m a PITA…but it always pays off.

I was having issues finding my spec car. I knew it existed…but it was not looking good. So I made a call to Walter Dawson (SE Sales Man). He told me that several dealers put calls into him asking for the same spec. Well guess what…that was my dumb ass calling all the dealers as they were getting cars !!! Now that Walter knew all these requests were for me…he decided to help me out. See…it paid off to make myself known.

The problem is…all the dealers (east coast) from Virginia and south deal with the port in Georgia. AWD cars are not that popular in the south…so my spec car was not at the port. However…Walter found 5 of my spec cars at the northern port in Philly. This port feeds States north of VA.

So the plan now was to get that car to me. The closest dealer to me that has already sold G70’s (thus acquiring points/credits for new allocations) was Alexandria. Safford in Springfield, VA was about 15 miles closer…but they just got a few G70’s and haven’t sold any…so no upcoming allocations.

So…Walter pulled some strings…to get the car from the Philly port to Alexandria. Mind you…Alexandria does pull cars from there but mainly for AWD Hyundai’s, etc. So it’s not like they have never done it.

During all of this…I also worked closely with the dealer owner…Kevin. Super nice guy. Both he and Walter went out of their way to get this car to me. Very grateful. Honest…not because I am getting the car from there…Kevin is one of the kindest, customer oriented people I have ever met. That is saying a lot. He would call, text and email me with daily updates. And this is the owner !!!

I ended up leasing the car…10k miles for 36 months. The MF/RV that I got for Nov were slightly worse than Oct…but there is a new $2,500 cash back. Details below. I got the $1k Conquest Offer since I had an Audi…and lastly Kevin was kind enough to knock off another grand for me. I want a bit more off…but these guys did a lot to get my car. Now…the paperwork is not done…so I will ask one last time before all is signed.

Lastly…they are bringing the car to me. Close to 80 miles away. I was trying to split the cost of them flat bedding the car to me. But they offered to bring it to me at no cost…so I can experience the entire Genesis Process (going over the car, etc). I think they were also eager to get the car to me…as they wanted the first car in the Richmond, VA market to be from them Good advertising for folks to go north until the local dealers get their crap together.

I plan on offloading my Audi at a very good price locally…using Vroom.com. I already did the process with them….but that was 2 weeks ago…and the offer is good for 10 days. So…once I know when the car is at the dealership…I will do it again. If they screw me 2nd time around…I already know that Alexandria will give me what Vroom offered the first time. That’s a relief. If that happens…then I will drive up there…and drive the G70 back. Rather not though…95 traffic between Richmond and DC is a nightmare.

So almost there.

Happy camper here folks !!!! Let me know if you have any questions…regarding the dealer…or if you want me to check anything on the car itself (once I have it obviously).

Info…
Total MSRP is $52,725.00

MSRP $51,500.00
Destination $995.00
Accessories
· Cargo Tray $115.00
· First Aid Kit $ 45.00
· Rear Bumper Appliqué $ 70.00

Minus $1k Conquest…minus $1k off MSRP…minus $2,500 Lease Cash Back

So Cap Cost is $48,225. That is 9% off of total MSRP. Honestly…how can one complain. Hot new car…I’ll be the only one around driving it (I think) for now.

November Lease Numbers...
10k miles
36 months: 0.00065 MF (1.560%) and 53% residual
$2,500 cash back + $1,000 Conquest Offer

So at the end…I am putting down Taxes, all Fees and 1st payment…which is about $3,500 or so.
My monthly payment will be $610/month

Cheers...B

Did you trade in your Audi? Or was it a lease turn in? Sorry if you already posted this, but I don't log on here everyday and the thread is getting kind of long now.

Do you mind sharing what model it was and what they gave you for it? I am trying to figure out how much money they are making off of this deal.

You mean $14, right?

The more you tell the story, the bigger the number has to get!
Every good story deserves a certain level of embellishment!

 

[Beefer]

Yep...fixed it...sorry about that.

 

[Lee55]

I agree...$14k is more like it, and even that is pushing it.

It was in mint shape...not a single thing wrong with it. And it had new rubber.

Fme...it is...guess I should have pushed for $15k. Oh well. I’m good.

Not even sure how they can even sell it...they don’t even have the title yet.
