  • 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.

I live in SoCal somewhat close to Hyundai Homebase. I was driving on the freeway and I saw what appeared to be a 2015Genesis from the front. As I got closer it was much more futuristic/refined than the 2015 Genesis. The winged badge had vertical wings similar to this:

But, much more Genesis like. The body was wider and longer. It looked like a RollsRoyce and Genesis mated. I'm thinking it was the next gen Equus. Of course, I didn't get my phone out quick enough to snap it. Just curious if anyone had any idea of what I might have seen.
 
Alright, after examining the current Equus badge that's exactly what it looked like, but updated. The car might have been a G90 with a modified Equus badge is my best current theory.
 
There are lots of pics of the 2017 G90 on the internet. It is known as the G900 in Korea, and is already on sale there.

It is known as the EQ900. Here is one with an Equus badge.

That was the car. The badge was even more vertical with the wings, straight up in the air. Perhaps they're experimenting with a new hybrid badge. I know lots of folks on here complain about the "Chrysler" confusion.
 
I live in the OC and saw the 2017 G90. It at my local gas station and spoke with the guy for a while. Thing is rediculous.
