#1492 of 5696 Re: Got the order request on Genesis. [joe97] by allmet33 Apr 21, 2008 (5:43 am)
Replying to: joe97 (Apr 18, 2008 7:42 pm) 2.5 cu. ft. spread throughout the cabin can factor out to a mere inch here, half an inch there or a couple inches somewhere else. It won't seem that much bigger and still falls into line with what I said...it won't have MUCH more room than what the Azera already offers. So folks thinking they would be getting a major upgrade in interior space over the Azera...don't hold your breath.
#1493 of 5696 Info as of April 24, 2008 by jeansyc Apr 24, 2008 (8:15 am)
THIS IS INFO SENT TO ME BY A HYUNDAI DEALER'S SALESPERSON. THAT IS ALL THE PERSON KNOWS SO THAT IS ALL I KNOW   I guess I'm just going to have to get the details to you in increments as they become available to me. I still don't have any stats on the V8 engine because it hasn't been allocated yet. But the V6 3.8l has 4 different packages.   Package 1: Standard equipment   Package 2: Premium package   Comes with leather wrapped dash   Integrated memory system   Lexicon 15 speaker surround sound, 6-disc stereo system   Sunroof, rain-sensing wipers, tilt/telescopic S/W   Power driver seat, heated seats   Package 3: Premium Package Plus   Has everything the Premium package has plus 18" Hyper Silver Alloy Wheels   Package 4: Technology Package   Lexicon Discrete Audio System w/6 disc changer   Navigation System w/Back-Up Camera   Driver Information System (D.I.S.), Multimedia Controller   HID, Auto Leveling & Adaptive Headlights   Front and Rear Parking Assistence Sensors   Cooled Drivers Seat    The Smart Cruise Control is an option. It's the lane change that is not. Also, we have ordered 4 Genesis that we are expecting in sometime late June. Replies to this message: backy (Apr 24, 2008 9:14 am) tonycd (Apr 24, 2008 7:40 pm)

Replying to: jeansyc (Apr 24, 2008 8:15 am) For Package 2, they have to mean "Power passenger seat." I can't believe Hyundai would try to sell the Genesis w/o a standard power driver's seat. Replies to this message: tonycd (Apr 24, 2008 7:40 pm)

Replying to: backy (Apr 24, 2008 9:14 am) Along the same lines, I'd also think that "tilt/telescope steering wheel" in Package 2 means it's power-assisted. Overall, sounds like Package 2 is a very similar equipment level to the Azera Limited Ultimate Package (without navi).   One issue I'm still awaiting clarification on: Is the wood real or fake? It's been reported both ways. Of course, it was reported as real in some early stories on the '06 Azera, too. I'm guessing it's fake on the base model, real on the top model and a hearty "dunno yet" in between.
#1496 of 5696 I saw a Genesis Today! by black_pearl Apr 30, 2008 (5:51 pm)
I near about caused myself a nasty little pile-up here in Fredericksburg, Va today cause I spotted a Genesis sedan and was very tempted to give chase to see the cars interior and find out how the owner likes it. Then too I figured maybe it was a tester that someone had out and about. Its a really impressive vehicle from about 15ft away! This one had the "flying H" grille though. I called my local dealership but they don't know anything about it..as usual. Replies to this message: air_scoops (May 02, 2008 9:18 am)

Replying to: allmet33 (Apr 17, 2008 11:14 am) True ! I was at a Hyundai dealership several weeks ago asking about the Genesis. Salesman said they would get a few over the summer but they would command a premium price. He said they would sell for $2-3k over MSRP. I told him maybe so , but not from me .

I hate the one without the H badge, the one that looks like a waterfall grill. Ugly a$$ grill I have ever seen in my life.....   There is a 90% chance I will go with the Genesis Sedan V8 4th quarter of this year. This car will be the attention-getter.

Please do not post pictures that overlap the right side bar. They prevent people from being able to read the first several messages on the page.   Either resize them yourself, or you can post them on your CarSpace page and then use the automatically generated text to display them. That way they will be automatically resized.   Sorry, a very wide picture had to be removed.

Replying to: ricwhite (Apr 17, 2008 7:20 pm) Ric, I agree with you 100%. When you go into a BMW or even a Ford dealership, there are usually at least 3 or 4 salespeople who have been "prepped" on new cars before they reach the dealership, and often have even test driven them at special programs. Also, the service department has been prepared through training programs etc. I jumped on my Azera in late January '06 just as they arrived. Fortunately, for me, the dealer I had WAS "with the program" and gave me the car for the exact lease program Hyundai was promoting. They even through in a few "extras"...However the service department was clueless about programming the exit/entry, doorlocks etc. I have since moved across the coast and find that the service department is polite, but not very "up to snuff" on the latest goings on and even worse, when I walked into the sales department to ask about the Genesis, a slick-talking dude was trying to tell me how "hot" the car was going to be, how limited they were in allocation and how much over MSRP they would sell for. However, he couldn't even give me any specs on the car. Lying in the corner at the very end of the service waiting area, however, was a Genesis full brochure with most of the details that the salesman was lacking. I think Hyundai is completely clueless about marketing, They have spent a pile developing and manufacturing very good cars lately and then they send them out to old-line hack sales groups, and worse yet, don't bring the dealerships up to certain service standards. When you buy a car, you are buying a total experience. I enjoy my Azera, and fortunately for me, I have had ZERO defects and problems for my two years. I bought my car off lease at the option price, since the re-sale has held up so well and also know that my car is "perfect." However, I can assure you that I will NOT buy another Hyundai, because I have been lucky to have a car without problems. If that had not been the case, I am sure it would have been a series of horrors to get my problems solved given the poor training and lack of coordination between dealer and manufacturer. I would rather spend the extra $6-$10k to go from a Genesis to an Infiniti M45 or somesuch and know that over a 6 or 7 year ownership, that extra money buys me a relationship with a dealer network and manufacturer that are dedicated to TOTAL customer satisfaction and will save me a pile of aggravation. Someday Hyundai just might get their act together, but right now....excellent products, but every other part of the purchase/ownership relationship is a total crapshoot. I will keep my Azera and enjoy it and feel it was a good buy, but also realize I have been lucky!! Replies to this message: ricwhite (May 06, 2008 3:56 pm) frazee (May 07, 2008 12:37 am)
