    I have the 'old man tan' coloured interior in my '15 Genesis sedan. It's the ONLY thing that I am not sold on, but the exterior was white so I bought it anyway. As I said before, my plan is to buy a used '18 G80 Sport in a couple years. The black is interior is slick. I'd like to test drive one soon but I'm scared to because I know I'd start handing cash over immediately haha.
    I looked at the G90 5.0 and the sales guy told me to take it for the week.. I had to say no as he knew just as well as I did that there was no way I would be giving it back lol.

    G80/90 still carries over Hyundai design language while G70 is all on its own (but still will identifiable Hyundait/Kia group parts, not unlike VAG).

    G70's dash and infotainment screen is exactly the same as Stinger and all other recent Kia products.



    Sitting in one at the car show, I would say G70 interior quality is better than Stinger and any BMW 1/2/3/4 series and on par with the new Acura RDX.
    Sitting in 55k+ a car that feels like a Kia, no thanks

    The G70 interior definitely competes with the sagging BMW interiors.

    Genesis has recruited designers from Bentley and Bugatti so I think you will see a lot more from Genesis going forward than many brands that cost a lot more.

    Have you spent much time in it? Honestly the Genesis interiors are great - better than BMW 3-series in my opinion, much better than anything the Americans put out, and I would rank it above a lot of other manufacturers as well these days. Different people look at different things to determine interior quality though so I guess it's still somewhat subjective. The doors also rattle less (even with window down) than many other brands which is always one of my tests. If the car doesn't feel solid and rattles a bunch when I close the door, I can't shake the feeling that it is built poorly. It's harder to say how it holds up over time (leather quality, etc.) but nothing stood out as bad to me.

    Funny enough I have a rental sonata right now, the interior looks pretty damn close to the g80

    Even though the G70 has the same nav screen as a Hyundai/Kia, the interior is still worlds better than an Infiniti or Acura. Better than BMW imo (with the exception of the nav screen) and some would classify me as a BMW fanboy... but it is definitely not quite up to Audi/MB.

    Just needs a symbol for "Hope" right in the middle.

    I guess you can only make so many variants of cars before they start to look like other cars

    Sad that they have to adopt what Acura abandoned.

    G70 has some pretty decent lease rates now, dropped to 1.4% up to 60 months.

    The rear is very GV80 concept-ish. I really like the look of it... except the wheel design.

    Looking forward to the full release of the G80.

    I have close to 17,000km on my G70 Sport. Still no regrets. Such a fun car to drive daily. I don't miss owning a BMW at all.

    It isn't perfect and has room for improvement, but for the price I don't think it can be beat. Good to see it getting car of the year from MT.

    Wow. The rear end is 100% Lincoln. Not sure that's a brand you would want to imitate.

    Absolutely impressed with the G70. It’s quick, with no lag. As fast as the E53 that has more horsepower and electric assist.

    Turn in is great, even with winters. Car is super balanced and predictable even on greasy Michelin Xi3s. The transmission runs with the best of them and shifts as fast as I want it to. Interior is great and the doors close with a nice clunk.

    The only complaint I would have is related to steering wheel thickness. Guess they are made with small hand asians in mind.
