sorry about the photos.

stupid google photos.


didn't take any interior shots, but with cross stitched seats, and door cards, it looks pretty high end.

and seats were fairly comfy.
(i used wide angle camera, so the proportions may not look representative of the real thing.  it looks quite good.  it's got that , i hate to say it but, 4 door coupe vibe a-la first gen CLS)

the 3.3T Dynamic is priced only $2k more than the Stinger...i'm impressed the pricing has been kept quite competitive...even the top trim 3.3T at $57,500 seems to offer a pretty strong value statement when you consider the vehicle and everything else included with Genesis (warranty, maintenance, loaner, etc).
When you've lost the argument, admit defeat and hit the smite button.

Does the 2.0 RWD model come with a leather interior? The base says artificial leather.

The pricing is very competitive.  As Dirtyjeffer noted, the dynamic 3.3 is essentially the same price as the Stinger GT Limited with delivery, but the Genesis offers much higher levels of service and what looks to be a higher end interior.

Patrick, when will your demo be going back to the company for resale??? :)

The 2.0T Sport has the same interior trim as the 3.3T Sport, so quilted Nappa leather, microfibre suede headliner, and brushed aluminum inserts (doors only as the gear lever takes the space on the console where we put aluminum in the AT cars).

My first demo will get handed back in the fall.  ;)

That sounds like an amazing set up!  The RWD set up and the driver focus looks incredible. 

AWD has definite advantages in Ottawa, but a RWD sports sedan sounds wonderful.

Patrick, you should check the website.  The text does not match what you've listed above. On the website, each model is listed as having the features of the model listed above it and I don't think that you meant for the $52,000 3.3l Dynamic AWD to have better trim than the $52,000 2.0l Prestige, but that is what I think the website says...This is what is on the website now.

I kinda sorta thought the base one might squeak in under $40k but I guess with the freight included it effectively is $40k.

Will be interested in seeing lease rates and residuals on that 2.0T Sport model...

Already flagged it with the web folks - in fact, I spotted it when I copied that text for my post. They'll have it fixed this morning.

The pricing looks pretty competitive, even against the Stinger.
I'd be okay with the base 2.0T's features, except for the lack of thigh support extension and ventilated seats. You can't have it all, I guess.

Me too.  I'm so pleased to see the pricing is where it ought to be.  With how good that car is, if it doesn't prove to be a tremendous success, it's the stupidity of the consumers, not Genesis who will be to blame.

...remember it’s not a CUV, so that automatically reduces the likelihood of wild success.

It's probably been asked numerous times already, but can any of the Genesis models get warranty work done at a Hyundai dealer?  Here in NB I highly doubt we'll be getting a Genesis Dealer for decades so the chance of owning a new one would be limited if we have to travel to Montreal to get warranty/service work done.

i can let you know that the Hyundai dealer here (Finch Hyundai) is the contact for Genesis customers in London...now, perhaps they are planning to build a Genesis building, but there isn't one currently.
