- Hyundai Genesis G80 | 100,000 Miles Later.. This quick look at the 2016 Hyundai Genesis or Genesis G80 as it was known after 2017, will be a unique one as this Genesis has done over 100,000 miles. As a previous owner of the Genesis G80, it was one of my most favorite cars I have ever driven. Now I want to see just how well it has held up and if it is on par with Lexus quality. Well I will tell you this, it beats out the Germans, now you will have to watch and see for yourself how it compares to a Lexus.

I actually bought this exact car from Cary imports and the reason the arm rests didn’t open automatically was because I found 2 pennies in each side where it opens and they operate just fine now. I’ve been enjoying it so far...
Garrett at Cary Imports told me about you! Massive congrats my friend on such an awesome purchase. The Genesis G80 is still to this day one of my most favorite modern day cars ever just such an enjoyable machine to pilot on everyday roads. A car you can truly enjoy for 10+ years. Enjoy sir, it’s always surreal when things like this happen haha thanks again for reaching out!
This or gs350 awd?
This
@@MeynMotorGroup appreciated the response.. just a few more questions if you dont mind, I just finished watching your review on the "16 model with 100k miles, had the tranny been flushed up to that miles and as far as with car components like motor mounts, brakes, rotors, any suspensions work have been done or is it still running with the factory after all of those racked miles? Btw I love youe thoroughly review on any of these cars... im getting older.. looking for a comfy ride in a near future... thanks mate!
Oh no I'm not sure about the previous maintenance or anything with these cars I only report on how its aged but yes it drives like a new factory car.
And thanks!
Only fools who are impressed by name brands would buy a bmw before this. This car is an underrated gem...
That is true only new BMW I like is the 440i but that’s technically a 2012 3 series
I’ve owned 2 BMWs, this might be my next car. Idc about badge or Prestige, if I like the car I like THE CAR.
Also genesis purchase is not cheap tbh, but solid cars long term.
@Zoe I got a Kia K900 which is basically the same car, or I would say very close, and it's great.
You are correct! I have a 2015 Genesis. I could've bought any other car. I looked into the others, and they are over priced because of the name they carry. That's it!
There are many people that still don't like to hear this but the South Koreans make really great automobiles . Hyundai and Kia have clawed and fought their way to the top with the best warranties and excellent quality. And that's the truth. They have beat other car companies at their own game offering tremendous value and great engineering. The people that engineer and build these cars love what they do. It shows.
100% agreed Danny yea they are crushing it and in my opinion this car kills its German rivals and I don’t think people can appreciate this without driving it. Thank you for stopping by my friend
Exhaust Sports Auto, There are some South Korean engineers at my workplace, these people are like amazingly smart. I'm telling ya, they can compete with everyone on the planet, trust me !
Oh I bet! Samsung LG pretty much took over the tech world they know what they’re doing for sure
Lies. They only mock what we want. How many Americans are driving around in re sold Ford Lincoln's hell even GMC???? Those cars kiaass?? Die on you. And Hyundai had to remake their cars over so many times just to extend the quality. Meanwhile Ford has same models running and resold over and over. No need to keeeppp remodeling like sonata about to do yet again lol. .....u think Nissan Maxima needs to change up all the time? Nope. Ace in hole. Quality control. South Koreans mock our creativity. Not top ours😉😉😉😉😉😉night
C. Nelson , Whatchew talkin??? Are you sippin the Yak?
My wife and I started with a 2012 Hyundai Genesis which we both liked a great deal. In Nov. 2017 we moved to a 2018 Genesis G80. OMG, I can't describe how much a LOVE this car. This car is every bit as fantastic as you are describing it! For me the car is as close to perfect as I could hope to find. The exterior styling is wonderful, the interior (especially the center stack) is what a luxury car should look like. If anyone is shopping for a new or used luxury car, drive this car because the value cannot be matched by any other car you might be considering! Thanks for the great review.
Hey that’s awesome very cool how you upgraded from the old Genesis. I’ve actually never driven one how would you compare the two?
But yea this gen is really stupendous love how it drives and handles glad you appreciate it so much I wish more people would go out and drive it to understand what we mean!
Exhaust Sports Auto I’m stuck between this Kia stinger and cadenza
G80 for sure get a CPO one or buy a warranty it’s cheap
@@DeonCHD Obviously these are two different cars. The Cadenza is similar to the Genesis in that it's a sedan that's a good value for the money. The main question here is how do you drive day to day? Would you be able to take advantage of the Stinger's more sporty characteristics?? My day to day driving does not include open and winding roads were I could really enjoy the Stinger. If you are single, and just want a little more excitement in your daily drive, maybe the Stinger is the car for you?
I just got a 2012 how you like it
I have 2015 Sedan with 235,000km regularly serviced. Still drives like it was when new.
That’s awesome very happy for you
Fell in love with this brand ever since purchasing my Genenis Coupe. They really stand out!
They are great cars for sure!
Yeah I've got 160,000 on my gen coupe
5 unlikes from a Mercedes,BMW,Lexus,Cadillac,Audi owners.They just trying to protect their investments lol
Haha I like German cars but you gotta lease them this still a champ with a 100k plus miles only Genesis and Lexus hold up like this thanks for stopping by!
🤣🤣
Lexus owners actually have the right to dislike. Though I'm no fan boy or anything.
Wrong v8 Mercedes, bmw and audi can last 600,000 miles
@@markmapanao4689 maybe one in a million
I had a Genesis G80 and I did the stupidest thing, I traded it in for an Audi A6. I love the Audi but I miss my Genesis so much.
I understand on paper the Germans look great and they’re very prestigious and yes the A6 is still a fantastic car no doubt. But the G80 they really nailed it and only someone who has driven it can appreciate it
Never to late to go back...
Trade back ... simple .
@@mikexcanxjerk is not about speed when it comes to genesis, is about the experience of the ride, the smoothness and the looks
So like a total jerk off, I left the autofocus on center instead of wide smdh. You would think Sony and its 8 trillion points of auto focus can maybe pick up on a FACE but nope...whatever this Genesis was incredible I missed it very much and Cary Imports has helped reunite me. Check out their inventory in the description box. Thank you for stopping by.
Exhaust Sports Auto didn’t even notice bro. Good job!!
Hey thank you so much for stopping by my friend
It would make sense to have a full maintenance history and repair history of that car and see how much the cost of ownership over 100.000 miles is. Because the fact that it is good now, does not mean in held up good. I believe it did, but this video did not prove that.
So what are you driving nowadays? I am in the market in a couple months...yay!
I have a 15 5.0 with 54k miles. I love the 420 hp. This is my 3rd Genesis I love the quality of the car. I've said the same things you've said about the car. I had a 7 series a 6 series and a 5 series BMW I'll take the Genesis anyday.
Is the sound system any good
Macomb Cougars it has the lexicon sound system, to give you an idea that is what is in a Rolls Royce
@@macombcougars1112 17 speakers including a subwoofer
Do you still have it how is it holding up
@@mccraejoey82 actually I still have it it had 96k miles on it. There only issue I'm having is the sound for the radio and nav intermittently does not work. Could be an optic wire to the amp. Everything works lights up sometimes you have sound sometimes you don't.
Genesis is built like a tank, it could do 300,000 miles more with no problem just rountine maintenance the V8 is awesome as well and highly reliable.
How is the Maintenance cost of the Genesis V8 when you compare with Lexus or Acura?
Lexus is known to be the most reliable luxury car but costs more.
@@Ahmed-vw3iw it's cheap to fix
Logic 77 only thing maintenance u need done by the dealership is a transmission flush because it’s sealed every 60k miles. At the dealership it’s $250 bucks aswell so it’s not a rip off by any set of standards
I'm on a car hunt now and NOTHING has hugged me like the Genesis!
Now this is me currently. I’m stuck between these and Lexus
@@highiii6605 Really good Openpilot support (and Android Auto) has pushed me to looking at Genesis from looking at Lexus
Just purchased a 2016 3.8 AWD with only 48k miles and mannnnn I’m in love!! Spacious, quiet, quick & smooth! Easily one of the best purchase decisions I’ve made.
Massive congrats my friend yea til this day it’s one of my most favorite cars ever. Drives better honestly than a German machine, rides like a Lexus can’t ask for a better combo than that!
I'm looking to do the exact same thing, now that you've had it for 5 months how are you liking it?
Great choice man, quick question since i just bought one with some damage and i'm in the process of repairing it, it has only 46k miles on it. Have you added any warranty?
And also if you don't mind, around what price did you get yours?
I'm really looking forward to driving this car
Hey man ..been two years...how is it holding up?
@@J.Zealuis actually it’s holding up really well!!! No major maintenance needed yet. Still quiet and smooth and that’s with 72k miles.
I absolutely love my 2016 Genesis 3.8 ultimate. I got one used about 4 months ago with 30,000 miles for $20,000 and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I feel like I'm driving at $60k car.
That’s impressive 20k? With 30k miles that’s dope
No way you got it for 20k even. Even now you can’t get one with the ultimate that has 30k for 20k even. I think you probabyly got it for 25k on the low end
I can't find one for under 25k wit 50,000 on it wtf lmao
I bought my 2015 in October with 52,000 miles on it for 24k.
So if you got one with that little of Miles and that year, you’re doing awesome !
@@bsmccrunner4it was 3 years ago doofus
Can’t agree more, my 2015 3.8 AWD Tech package is still a joy to drive. No issues. It still gets a bunch of looks and comments. Even had a Porsche Cayenne driver stopped to ask about it. Genesis rocks!
Here it is 2021 and I just yesterday got approved for a 2016 with only 46K on it and only paying $22,599!!!! I believe God sent me to this vehicle. Being a single mother, reliability is everything and judging by your reviews and these comments, I believe I stumbled upon a gold mine and I had never even heard of this car! Why isn’t it commonly mentioned!!! OMG!!! I CAN’T WAIT! It’s so sexy too! The front of it with the analog clock gives the Aston Martin feel! I keep hearing of people trading in their BMW’s, Lexus, and other luxury cars for this one and they are way more impressed! If I drive off the lot with this, I will LITERALLY cry!
I have a 2018 g80, and I absolutely love the way this car drives. There is none like it, and I’ve had a few luxury cars. It hugs the road and has the most comfortable ride. You are right. It is extremely underrated, but I’m happy about that because you don’t see them everywhere you look on the streets, as you do with Lexus and Mercedes.
This fellow is preaching to the choir in my case. I own a 2009 Genesis with the 4.6 liter V8 and love the car. 2009 was the first year they came out as a Hyundai luxury model and I had seen a few on the road and loved the look. When I took a test drive at the dealer I was sold after five minutes behind the wheel. I've driven it on several road trips----NY to North Carolina was the first----and it's a world class touring sedan. And like the man says in the video, it is under-appreciated, which also means you can get a used model at a very reasonable price.
Bro! I saw your video for this genesis g80 ONCE AGAIN in my feed. I didn't think twice, and clicked and watched your video. I got the same car in march and i would say this makes me feel like it is still as new! Like you said in you video: no weirdness feel, no rattles. And thus, i am not a hyundai fanboy but DAMN it is a whole new different level of what Hyundai/Genesis has done. 😁👍👍
Hey I remember you, thanks again for stopping by my friend yea this was an absolute treat and very glad I was able to do a video on this 100k Mile Genesis. It was a true treat and congrats my friend you will love your Genesis for years to come! Man I want one so bad 😂
Very timely. I bought a 2016 Genesis with ultimate package with 29k miles for $26k just three weeks ago.
This car is described in this video. I look for excuses to drive it. It’s more comfortable than the best home leather furniture. It’s not hyperbole to say the car drives itself. The HUD is the best I have seen. Speed, nav, land keep, advanced cruise and situational awareness of other cars are all integrated into the HUD
Everyone who has been skeptical converts after a single ride. This car will be one of those cars sold based on word of mouth.
Also the Genesis Dealer network is only now building out. Once established it will make sense to advertise.
I have owned them all. MB, Lincoln, Caddilac, Lexus, Audi and it’s Genesis for the win.
I have HTRAC badge and I did add the G80 badging from Amazon. Sweet.
Massive congrats and glad you appreciate the car it truly is one of a kind it’s so above it’s class and nobody knows it or really understands it and that’s a shame. But a select few like yourself can appreciate it
I bought mine a few weeks ago as well. No regrets. I truly appreciate this car. I don't mind sitting in traffic and I do look for excuses to drive. Haha cheers
You are definitely telling the truth.👍🏿
Just bought the exact thing a couple days ago (41k miles). I look for reasons to drive it too and I hate driving lol. Everything about it amazing. It's foolish to spend twice as much for similar features and quite a bit more for repairs, oil changes etc. Cheers.
Sorry but the HUD is one of the worst. These cars are very nice but I drive cars for a living and the only manufacturers that have HUDs that don't give you a head ache when staring at it is the GM cars(surprising) and Mercedes.
These have a bunch of light bleed all around.
I have a 2016 Genesis 3.8 L black with grey interior. I absolutely love this car. And it’s exactly as he described in the video no problems, no strange creaks or noises. I get lots of looks and compliments. A Hyundai dealership actually tried to get me to sell my car to them. Said they can’t keep them on the lot. Edmonds auto review is why I bought the car. Money well spent.
My car had 180000 miles, Still run strong
Genesis g80? which year and model?
I am currently on my Second sonata and a Genesis G80 is next on my list! Hyundai/Kia/Genesis have all impressed me more and more. First sonata had over 100,000 miles on it before I traded in, never had a problem with either. Hyundai has been the most reliable brand I’ve had and will only stick with them now.
Awesome video , glad to see you basking in nostalgia. Would love to own this car one day, also I’m looking forward to the 2020 g80 being revealed in the fall/winter!
Haha thanks so much my friend yea this was a true treat. Loved seeing how this car aged. I too am looking forward to seeing what they did with the new G80. I just don’t like the lease prices on these cars but knowing how well this car performed with 100k miles, buying a used one may not be a bad call!
Exhaust Sports Auto true!
You have an excellent channel and I enjoy your content! In 2018 I bought a used 2015 G80, 6 cylinder AWD, luxury package, moon roof with 29K on it. It now has 79K, mostly highway during my tenure with this machine. It's a great car. A joy to drive. I've had a few problems with the electronics, the XM Sirius Radio and screen were replaced when a month after I bought it and again a couple of months ago. It was freezing and not allowing me to change channels. Luckily the extended warranty took care of this problem. Other than that, I've replaced the tires with Good Years, Replaced the driver visor, under the warranty. The car is in the shop now getting the rear rotors and brake pads replaced but after 79K, that's just fair wear and tear. They checked the front brakes and they are still fine. It's a wonderful car. I hope I can take mine to 200K! Keep up the great work on your channel.
Buying a 100,000km 2015 model today and this really helps me feel good about my decision. Thanks for the video!
Hey massive congrats to you I’m sure you will love the car and I’m humbled that my video has helped
Hey i bought a 2015 3.8l luxury one today it's at 100k km. How's your experience till now and what about fuel efficiency
@@inderjitsidhu3601 Im looking at buying one. how is it so far?
@@hk-jt3nj did you buy it how was it?
Good car review. I wondered how the Genesis would hold up after so many miles. Glad to see it wasn’t junk like all the Jalopnicks said said.
Haha Jalopnik said it wasn’t good with high miles? I need to look that up. And thanks again, I too was curious how this model would hold up with this many miles. Really love this thing
I own a 2011 Hyundai Genesis 4.6. Still works so well and holding up really good so far. My friends and colleagues laughed at me for buying a Hyundai back then.
Nice glad to hear it and yea people in fords and cadillacs are laughing at me for making this video. This reality is a hard pill for many to swallow these cars just last period.
I love my 2011 Genesis but was recently in accident total lost😔. Car still driveable. upgrading to newer model Genesis
I switched from a 335i F30 to a 2019 Genesis ultimate package.
Keep doing these reviews! Rarely do car enthusiasts review high mileage vehicles for Genesis or other brand within the last 5 years. It would interesting to see a review of a high mileage 2016 Lexus LS460 F Sport.
Thanks and yes I really want to find the car but it’s pretty rare in my area haha. I did review a 2013 standard LS460 with 40,000 miles if you are interested
@@MeynMotorGroup Yes, thanks for reviewing after 106,000 mi. In Aug 2021, I bought a 2020 Genesis G80 Sport AWD with 10,575 mi. So far, I like it, except for the poor fuel efficiency, which I knew going in. We’ll see how the 3.3TT lasts.
I'm on my 3rd Korean car. All purchased new. I was 25 when the Hyundai Excel hit the streets here. So know about how rather poor that 1st offering was. 20 years later I took a chance and purchased a 2005 kia spectra. I was pleasantly surprised to find it perfectly reliable to 100.000 miles with no issues at all. We added a 2007 spectra and it was just as good! I'm now driving a fully loaded 2017 Elantra, very nice, very comfortable, just hit 55.000 miles, no problems or issues at all. Still on the original tires and they still have decent tread left! Love this car. It runs down the freeway at 80 mph and is perfectly happy to do so.
That’s awesome glad it’s worked out for you but I think people just love making Korea the butt of every joke it’s really unfortunate I prefer many Kias to Toyota’s actually
Currently have a 2015 AWD V6 with over 90k due to long work commute but still runs strong! No rattling or noise at all and still love it 😄😄
Nice
My girlfriend has a 2015 3.8 with now 130k miles on it and even 3 years after this video (2022), I agree with everything you said. I own an Audi RS5 and I still get excited to drive her car. You're absolutely spot on when you said it takes you down a few stress points when driving. The cabin is just so peaceful! A little more engine noise than I would expect, but for a car with 130k? I have no complaints. We have two kids, and one who can't keep his shoes off the back seat, so that's where the wear and tear is. Other than that, and a missing spring that doesnt keep the rear seat trunk access hole closed, you would think the car is 100k miles newer. Wouldnt mind adding a second one for a new daily.
I just got a 2016 Genesis 3.8 with Tech, Signature and Ultimate package. I love it so far. Only have had it for a week but I had always wanted one. It did not disappoint.
How your mpg I really wanna pull the trigger on one but I’m scared of gas
Oh I love my Genesis! I also have a 2016 3.8L and it only has 40k miles on it. It rides so smooth. You do not hear it crank up. I have never heard of them until I bought mine.
I see #ExhaustSportsAuto hitting the 100,000 subscribers in the next 1 to 2 years. You guys give great overviews and reviews. Keep up the good work!!! #ExhaustSportsAuto
Ahaha thank you so much that means a lot but I don’t think it would take 1-2 years more like 100-200 years 😂
@@MeynMotorGroup Hahaha... Reach for the Stars... If you miss, you will fall on the Moon.
You are right about that haha I’m just happy that awesome viewers like you appreciate what I do that’s good enough for me
Gorgeous exterior and interior, reliability is awesome.
As always, very informative video and lots of useful information. One can tell by your use of more colorful language how passionate you are about this car.
Thank you haha there were no more words left 😂 CZcams has censored 🤬 me and took all humanity away from me with their stupid algorithm
Exhaust Sports Auto You’re #%***^< kidding me. Some automotive CZcamsrs use the F-word every other sentence!
Ehh I don’t want to do that haha people get soooo upset and sensitive with me but it’s ok for them to watch Game of Thrones or the Sopranos or something. Hypocrisy at its finest that’s the internet for ya 😂
Exhaust Sports Auto You’re not an F-bomber. You speak very well and your intelligence is obvious. I respect that about you.
Haha deep down I can be 😂 but I appreciate it David thanks so much for your kind words!
solid video man! I heavily enjoy videos on luxury cars with higher miles. I have an 08 ISF w 113k miles, daily driven w 0 issues. I have been looking at the G70 (3.3T) as my next DD and this video further convinces me to go for it.
Thanks so much my friend I'm really humbled by that and man ISF is a sick car pretty much impossible to come by haha. I actually don't think you will like the G70 as much, I had the Stinger and yes the G70 was better than the Stinger but I thought the G80 was even more superior than both. G80 uses a double wishbone front suspension similar to your ISF. You may also enjoy a CPO GSF more too and if you don't mind leasing the BMW 440i is incredible. But up to you the G70 is a very cool car thanks for stopping by my friend
Exhaust Sports Auto thanks for your advice! It’s valuable since you’ve driven the G70. My only complaint on the G80 is the center console looks a bit dated, almost identical to my 12 year old ISF. (Just the way the center screen is placed). Have you had a chance to drive a G90 yet?
By center console I mean just the screen and how it’s positioned and designed.
@@naqeebrahman3157 Yea I understand it came out in 2015 so they kept the same design. I have not driven a G90 actually I'm sure it will be even more comfortable I just liked the size of the G80. But let me know what you end up with keep me posted! Thanks so much for your amazing support
Recently purchased the 2015 3.8T.... so far so good love it. Upgraded from my 2009 Sonata, which made me a fan of Hyundai. My first-time servicing the Sonata my mechanic literally told me this has the same engine as a Honda Accord, "you can go 250,000 miles on this thing without any issue". It's currently at a hundred and seventy-five thousand miles and running strong after a $700 service.
My 2015 Genesis was a steal at $20K with under 49,000 miles. Most people think I paid 30k for it. I have a feeling after the 2021 Genesis people are going to start jumping on board. Those of us who looked past BMW, Benz, Acuras can feel proud about the fact that we're not just consumers or brand whores. My Genesis is my spaceship and you'd have to kill me for it 💀👑
Massive congrats my friend!
I have a 2015 3.8 with about 25K on it. And aside from the turn signal/DRL burn out issue, I love it.
My cousin was having so many issues with her Ford Explorer's transmission until she was finally fed up.
She asked me for recommendations since she saw that i've been in love with my Veloster turbo and I told her that she could buy any 2013+ KIA or Hyundai and she'll be happy.
Her husband got her a 5.0 Genesis sedan...man I'm jealous that car is amazing. Drove it and I fell in love...too bad it isn't a wagon. (I have a thing for hatchbacks.)
Veloster is an amazing car I really like it a lot! And yea haha great car and I understand wagons are always nice to have thanks for stopping by!
@@MeynMotorGroup I'm a huge Hyundai fanboi. Been thinking of grabbing an Elantra gt n line in a couple of years
I've had a 2012 Genesis sedan 3.8 with both the tech and premium packages and it was great for the first 5 years but at 135K miles it's age started to show - ac compressor, headlights switch, brake lines corroded (fixed under recall by Hyundai), and now we're seeing little glitches with the power windows and headlights (again) radio i-drive knob...We've had 3 lexuses and Hyundai is getting closer but they don't age as well as Lexus....The electronics are just better in the Lexus as well as the ac....I've never had any a/c problems with the Lexus but still kudos to Hyundai for a good car. Especially for the $$.
We own a 2017 after owning 2 Mercedes these Genesis G80 3.8 drives like a dream. Now we're looking at the Genesis GV80 SUV with the V6 and that will be our next car. Great design both inside and out as well as great power under the hood.
I just bought a 2015 3.8L with 132k miles and it still drives phenomenal, handles great, goes like hell and still looks good.
I just bought one with same year and mileage. How many miles do you have on now and did you have to do any major work. Thank you.
Same car is available near me, 74k miles. What did you pay?
I’m considering picking one up tomorrow 2015 with 141k mikes for 8700 hopefully is good
Same vehicle I’m at 144k and as of now no major problems
i bought a 2018 G80 3.8L RWD from carvana about a week ago. i love this car, its a fun dd. Got a diagnostic this morning from genesis of cary, and once it was confirmed perfect working order i took it to tint world in cary to have Randy tint it up. got 32,700 miles on it and cant wait to mod it up.
My daily driver 2013 Genesis has 115k miles on it now. Still runs and drives great, no issues.
Yup 👍
I’m on the verge of buying my next car. There is a 2012 VW Phaeton with 62,000 @ £10.500, or a 2017 Genesis with the same mileage for £15,000. They’re both in the UK Autotrader at the moment.
Your unbiased review has certainly given me something to think about. I’m 51, and I find myself edging ever closer towards comfort and refinement in my choices, but it’s interesting to note that a younger owner such as yourself is impressed by the vehicle.
I love my genesis 2015 with 68,000 miles and a brand new motor. I will have this car for awhile.
I’m sure! It’s truly a great car and I’m very happy to know you are still enjoying it
New motor at 68k miles? What was worng with it? Did the warranty covered it?
Women don't change their oil. You know that...
I have a 2016, with 3.8 H-TRAC. Outstanding automobile.
I have a 2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0t, and it has over 111,000mi. I bought it used at like 70,000mi as my first car, and it has had only a minor brake sensor issue that was a 10-20$ fix. And, it was leaking some oil out of an oil line that was only a $30 fix. And, some stuttering in the transmission from a dead stop when it's not warmed up. That's it.
I watched this video 2 weeks ago and bought this car CPO (certified pre-owned), today! You were right on the money about this car with your review and thank you!! I got the same year as this 2016 with only the Group 2 (Signature) pkg. and only 36K mls. This one you're reviewing also has the Group 3 (Technology) pkg. but NOT the Group 4 (Ultimate) pkg. which includes the REAL wood trim and few other options.
Wow massive congrats my friend I am super humbled that I was able to assist in your purchase. You my friend just got one of the best modern day vehicles..ever. Their CPO program is epic too thanks again for sharing. Enjoy the ride
How much, if you don’t mind sharing? I’m looking at a ‘16 CPO with 32k, don’t want to pay too much.
@@tonysoprano9087 - I bought the car early January of this year and dealer was asking $21,650. I also purchased the "Bumper-to-Bumber" 10yr/100K miles extended warranty, plus tax, dock fees, registration, etc. The out the door price was $24,100 for my 2016 3.8 V6 with 36K miles. Prices might have dropped a little since then. But try to get a 2016 model since the 15's had some issues.
Always great to hear when people buy warranties enjoy
Bees Waxx thanks for the reply, I planned on getting the extended warranty. The one with the option (signature, tech, ultimate) pack is 22.9k ... a bit high? And another CPO base is 19.2 both have roughly 30k miles. Not sure which to buy, 3.7k is a lot.
1 big thing about the Hyundai and Génesis brand when it gets up to higher mileage 100k 120k 130k 140k etc is you have to consider the condition of the cylinders and pistons since they use GDI it causes significant more carbon buildup compared to PFI engines in other brands.
I've got a 2017 , g80 5.0 ultimate and it is amazing . Very nice ride quality 👌
Dope review.
Love that car. Great review my friend...🤙
Thank you bro r u up early casting on some private ponds bro? Haha
@@MeynMotorGroup haha nah. Working today unfortunately
Nah that’s not unfortunate stay busy my friend keep crushing it
We bought a grey 2016 yesterday! Absolutely a fine car!
Nice congrats! It’s one of my most favorite cars ever
After I finish paying off my house in a few years I think I would get a 5.0 Genesis been hearing it’s bulletproof and a lot of mechanics say it’s pretty easy to work on
They are amazing for sure
It's perfect and worth every penny. Thanks.
Haha yup thanks so much for stopping by
As an owner of a 2016 3.8 AWD Genesis, I can agree with everything on this video! Mine has done 81k miles and it drives like it’s new. If you are considering a used luxury sedan, PLEASE consider a used Genesis!!
Big shout out to you for this video, I looked at is350, A7, BMW Etc. The ride the leather the finish is worth every penny. I purchased a 2016 with 97000 miles. I found very quickly you will not get the value with any other car in its class that you get from this for the money. I will be posting videos of mine and how well it's held up very soon.
Thanks for allowing me to take a look at the Genesis sedan!!!
Previously owned a2009 CTS4 loved it but had a engine problem .I’m now ready for a 2016 Genny!!!
I have a Genesis coupe with over 160,000 miles on it and it still runs great . I love that little car .
Nice that’s great you have no idea the nonsense I’ve heard in the comments of this video people with fords and Cadillacs think their car is more reliable than a Genesis smh
Sleeper value. Love it. Thanks man.
Hey thanks for stopping by yea this is a big time sleeper haha
You can find these for $21k with around 35k miles. A sonata goes for $17k, how can one NOT choose this car?
Yea I’ve seen V8 certified ones go for like 23-25k just amazing
I just bought a Genesis G80 Sport. I love it. 3.3 TT
how do you take care of your car? besides the usual oil changes etc... like at 100,000 miles... what other (easy, dont break bank) things can you do for tune ups and maintenance?
NICE VIDEO THANKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK.
DID SOME YEAR GENESIS CARS HAVE TRANSMISSION ISSUES ?
IF SO, WHICH YEAR CARS & SPECIFIC TRANSMISSIONS HAVE THE ISSUES PLEASE ?
THANKS.
ANYBODY KNOWLEDGEABLE PLEASE REPLY SOON.
Wow, I actually saw this exact one for sale no shit. Got one with 18k miles :) Genesis is amazing
Oh wow haha that’s awesome and damn congrats on that ride sir with only 18k miles enjoy it definitely one of my most favorite cars ever. Thanks again for stopping by my friend
Have a 2015 Genesis 5.0 Ultimate with 39,000 miles. Great car!!
Nice I’m pretty jealous haha fantastic vehicle
You're lucky. I have the same and have gone through several issues so far.
Milage 73k
Issues:
-3 transmission changes
-Motion sensors constantly going out and giving me an error and unusable.
-rear led brake light built up condensation
-panoramic sunroof needs to be lubricated and serviced every year.
Infotainment system (rarely) will completely be unusable and will freeze.
Up to 60k miles it was a superb car. Now it's just a nightmare.
@@johnhunt9674 wow sorry to hear that. I have warranty. Just cross my fingers 🤔
I have three same car no issues
45k
Great review man. You're right. A lot of people hate on this car and Genesis because it's a hyundai and hyundais suck. I really think if you're one of those don't make any conclusions until you've at least sat in one and driven one. I can tell you reliability with a 2011 4.6 has been great with the exception of some electrical issues here and there. Those tau v8s are great motors. My dad got a 2018 G90 5.0 and I expect the same reliablity from that. Funny enough, I drive a 2015 genesis 3.8 I just got with 45,000 miles, my dad drives a 2018 Genesis G90, and my step mom drives the 2011 genesis 4.6 now. Great Job man! These really are underrated in a lot of ways!
Scotty Kilmer will go CRAZY over this review
Great review. I’m going to buy myself a 2018 3.8 with 69,000 miles.
I currently drive a 2010 Kia Forte which happens to be my first car and I’m impressed with how reliable it’s been despite all the negativity Kia/Hyundai gets. Love the way the Genesis looks and it’s definitely something I’d consider as my next car.
That's my car 2016 exact same interior dashboard and interior color, fully equipped, top of the line, 42K miles, in perisian gray. I love love love my Genesis which was designed to be a Bentley knockoff. Since 2016, I just installed her first new front brakes [6 yrs]. The battery is still good until next year. Thank you for bragging about this gorgeous car. In fact the interior is nicer than the Lexis. It's also a sturdy, safe car.
I own the same car and agree with your comments. This is a direct injection engine. Have the inlet valves been cleaned, and if not, is it still running well? Thanks.
I have 2017 G80 3.8 with 65K miles. Thing is great.
I like this guy review style.
Lmfaoo I really had to sign in to tell you that I love your personality in reviewing cars and it was just awesomely hilarious watching this. good wok bro!
Glad you enjoyed!
216k miles and the quality is high. the performance is great. if you hold down drive mode for a few seconds you get SNOW MODE. very slow but soooo smooth and relaxed. the throttle is reduced but the handling is sport handling in Snow Mode
Lowering your blood pressure? Sign me up then Kevin. Coming out of Costco the other day, I saw this woman drive by and I gave her a thumbs up. Just seeing the car in person you cannot imagine how unique and sexy the car looks. Truly, the Koreans know how to make amazing cars that last past 100k+ miles. Germans and the brits need to get their heads out of their asses to see a new era is coming,

My 2011 has 88k and I love it so much. No issues at all. Fantastic car
That’s great and you still got plenty of life left
Sarat C I have a 2010 63k, 4.6 tech package. I love ❤️ it! I had a borla exhaust added shortly after I purchased, and the windows tinted. It still turns heads..
Which one is smoother and quieter, this one or the newest es350, or newest 300h?
Sweet ride!
Agreed!
You are the best!
Hey bro thanks a lot for making this video!
I have just a small question, how is the road noise compare to lexus gs 350 2016? I'm looking to buy one.
Hey thanks for stopping by my friend. So I actually did drive a 2016 F sport GS350 with 20k miles and honestly I like the Genesis way more. The road noise in that is about the same, you have to step up to an LS to get better noise isolation. GS is not a bad car but if you drove it back to back with this, you would see this is leagues above. This is like big body car territory with excellent handling
Exhaust Sports Auto thank you you so much, I'll book my test drive with genesis and will definitely buy one, and i guess genesis is a bit cheaper than lexus gs. Thank you for your help 😊
I know I am a little late, but I find myself at the same crossroads. 2016 Genesis or 2013-2015 GS350? I’ve always been a Lexus guy, but I’ve been seeing these genesis on the road looking good.
I have one with 46k and it's an AWESOME vehicle!
Thank you very much for this video. Genesis should be paying you. I was thinking about getting a new RX 350 or 450. But I’m holding off till the GV80 comes out. I’m probably going that way. It looks amazing. Great warranty. But still need to see one in person.
Haha thank you my friend but I can't accept there money lol gotta stay objective but yest these vehicles are incredible and I am very excited for the their new SUV
I held off on buying a new Lexus RX350 last year because I had read about the new Genesis GV80 suv that is being released this year. I wanted to find someone who had done a 100,000 mile review before proceeding with my purchase.... so thank you for this video! One question though.... do you recall the price tag on this used Genesis? I am curious about resale value on the brand as well.
Haha glad I could help with that yea I did see the new GV80 looks good. Yea it was about $14,500
I purchased a used 2017 G80 3.8 HTRAC without the sunroof for a good price and so far I love it. Haven’t driven it much with the whole COVID-19 but I can’t wait to get it out on the road some more. I wonder are there any features about the car that I’m unaware of yet?
czcams.com/video/PyahnP05emQ/video.html
I did make a video on it but idk if you already know these things. Congrats on that incredible ride tho!
Exhaust Sports Auto Thanks. I did check that video out..good stuff
What about the carbon buildup a supposedly usual consequence of the GDi engine design ? I heard about it, and I am concerned as I would to acquire one G80 2015 3.8L 50,000 miles. Is it required to install an OCC ? Is it possible to decrease this "risk" by using high grade 100% synthetic oil ? Thank you
I just purchased a 2015 Genesis from a major dealer where I live, and it is in impeccable condition, and it has 122,000+ miles on it, and the dealer provided me with a 100,000 mile major issue warranty. The only real issue I found on my car, was the drivers seat adjustment plastic wrap was broken, and it hangs loose, but does not interfere with the seat adjustment. Plus, I paid $16k before tax, tags, and title, which came out to about $18k to finance, and with no money down.
How’s it been so far?
This is just the information I needed, been wondering how they hold up over time. I‘ve been considering buying one of these since you can a low mileage one for less than the price of a new Civic.
Oh it’s a go Alex, get an extended warranty and you are good to go I think I may have to as well haha
Yes, because the resale value is abysmal, so you can get one at a very discounted cost.
John Green resale value? No need to sale if a car can last 100,000+ miles.
Nice video man, i was wondering how's the fuel efficiency on a 2015 genesis 3.8 awd sedan. I just bought a used one at 100k km
Congrats my friend thats basically the same car I had i was getting like 22 mpg and I was quite happy with that around town
Just bought my 15 g80htrac ibiza blue 60k this thing is crazy nice !!!!
Huge congrats my friend!
Just curious have you test driven MB that are made before 1995? or made in the 80s or 70s in terms of rattling or other noises inside or from outside? how does that comparing to LS 430, LS 460 and Genesis? Thanks.
I have not! I don’t even think I’ve driven a car that old before haha but I really want to because that was the pinnacle of Mercedes quality and durability. Really hard to find those cars however. I have reviewed a 2002 E55 Amg and that was a very solid car had 200k miles on it
from what I read 2002-2006 was the worse quality for MB because they lower the quality so they could compete with Lexus in price(interestingly one thing could support that theory is the Taxi drivers in Germany boycott MB and MB market share went down from 80% to less than 50% so MB got the message start improving its quality again now the share of MB of the taxi market went back up to 75%). The exception is 2005-2006 MB E320 CDI for those who like Diesel.
Hmm that may be true but that model E class was first produced in like 98 or something so they have to maintain til 02 I guess the 03 redesign yea that’s a different story as you mentioned haha
Did someone swap out the Hyundai rear trunk badge for a Genesis badge on your car? I've got a 2016 Genesis and it has the Hyundai badge. I've considered swapping it out. I don't think that year came with a Genesis badge.
Any new issues out there? I have a 2018 5.0 RWD w/20k miles. Fantastic car with plenty of power with no worries of "What will break next" which I often said to myself with my old 2015 E350. I have only seen (1) 5.0 in addition to mine in the Charlotte area. Very rare car, and with the V8 ousted for the 3.5T I believe it will possibly become a collector car.
Only "issue" I noticed and found others who reported online that the transmission has a wierd delay on changing from changing gears-------going about 40-50mph if I recall correctly. Pedal was about 3/4 of the way down.
This is a rare occurance for me and ONLY happened like 4 times since driving the car for about 4 years....I noticed that it appears regardless of using any mode (normal, sport, eco).
hows the reliability, especially with the suspension.
Can any one say something about maintenance costs, brakes, oil change, repairs to mention but a few. Thanks in advance.
Not a lot to maintain and it’s RELIABLE. Oil change cost about 80 bucks or less
It's hyundai prices they aren't expensive to maintain, I work at a Hyundai dealership in Canada only time I see those at the service department are in for tire rotation lol
I have the 2015 54,000 miles and only one issue 350dlls to fix it was a little electronic part that control the a/c and radiators fan ., the dealer borrow me a car for a week while they order the part and fixed the cons of this car you spend tires fast because is to heavy and the top of the dash cracks for no reason beside that is the best car ever in my life. the windows are doble glass with isolation plastic in the middle
I have 2015 genesis 3.8L I love it. .. very nice car which I bought used also.
Same! Mine is in Parisian Gray
