Awesome car for the money

Good performance, power, and space. This is with the money. Best part is it is biggest enough for me! I recommend this vehicle for anyone wanting a budget friendly luxury car.

Best luxury car I've had

My Genesis is VERY nice all around. I have owned other luxury cars, but truthfully this has all features in one fine vehicle. I still have a Mercedes and have had a Lexus, Audi and BMW, but this car tops them all! Easily priced MUCH lower than any of its competitors with all features, truly a good buy all around.

Very nice car for the price,economical emissions.

The car is constructed on a solid chassis,with sound support and a balanced frame .I believe the vechicle is a good edition for advancement in the future of technology coming.the interior is somewhat stiff and could have better quality in the comfort and construction.The handling is about a 4.2 on the scale.The suspension is somewhat off as far as road handling dynamics.I know the electrical system and the wiring components could be routed better based off of the blueprint.overall the car is s good for the purchase price I. Would highly recommend the car for any car enthuist who is into cats and a well constructed vechicle.

Incredible Car

LOVE this car. I have owned MB, Cadillac, BMW, Infiniti, Acura ... the G-80 leaves them all in the dust. There are only a couple of options ... 3.8 v 5.0; AWD v RWD; 2 comfort packages. I got the AWD 3.8 with both packages. I traded in a Cadillac XTS on it and have found the G80 to be a much nicer car at $17,000 less. This car has never disappointed me. Drives beautifully, technology is far more advanced than I am, I really love the HUD, Lane Change Warning, Automatic Braking, Full moon-roof, the list goes on and on. I have had a lot of luxury cars, this one is the best. And, at $52K MSRP, it was as much as $25,000 less than the rest of it's class. It is spacious, luxurious, looks great and handles very well in the snow. Did I say I LOVE this car?

My last car was a Genesis

The G80 2017, 5.0 Ultimate, exceeded my expectations in road handling and speed. The interior is comfortable and the electronics are user friendly. If I have a negative with this car, I would say the overall exterior vision between my 2012 4.6 and this car, is reduced.

Wonderfully crafted luxury vehicle for the money.

Move over BMW and Mercedes. Best car for the money. A wonderful road car with good fuel efficiency for an AWD heavy vehicle... On road trips, we have actually averaged close to 28mpg using cruise at reasonable speeds...

very happy

Just bought used 2017 Genesis G80 AWD with 20k miles. Drives like a dream. Tons of options. Outstanding stereo. Lots of compliments. Would have liked a new one, but the color choices are now much more limited. You won't regret it. The warranty is NOT 100% transferable to second owner though,and that was disappointing. Still 5yr / 60k mi. but no concierge service or 10yr powertrain

super handling

great auto,needs better paint and aluminum needs to be polished out to make vehicle stand out. A more cofterable seat for driver is too stiff.Gauges are diffacult to read at middle of day,

My 2018 G80

This is my second Genesis. It is a completely different car than my 2010 Genesis I got a better deal than I was expecting.it has so many standard feature that add one?s was not necessary. It did come with all wheel drive whic is not necessary in my case. For a standard model car it is loaded.

Excellent Luxury Car

This is one of the nicest cars I?ve owned and I had four European luxury cars over a 20 year period. The fit and finish is second to none, the ride is smooth, quiet and powerful.
