    The paddle shift squeaking is a non-issue. Tap them, don't squeeze like you did.

    It's a really great car but it will take them awhile for people to get over the "Hyundai" thing.

      @jonathangwynne1917 7 років тому +22

      It will only take them as long as it takes to get people to drive their cars.
      Once you drive a G90, the only reason to buy an S-Class or a 7-Series is badge-snobbery.
      Once you drive a G80, the only reason to buy a Lexus LS is brand loyalty.

    Starting at $69k but probably will give like $10k off sticker price (based on equus and k900) so I would say not bad car for $60k. For that money substitutes would be nicely equipped C300/340i or base E300/528i. Yeah I would lease it for 3years and return it without a second thought. Upscale cabin with decent power, and no need to worry about depreciation lol

      Beauty Leah Nicole How so? If you consider resale value of Equus, Genesis, Azera and K900, Cadenza and Amanti I think the answer is quite clear. Genesis might have been the most successful among them thus have rather higher value, so G80 might do ok. But G90? You'd probably would regret not leasing one instead of buying one.

      dont forget turbos give a different driving experience than naturally aspirated (if u want that low end torque and a lighter car) and also it costs alot less. so no waste of money here. plus they developed the 3.3T for other cars to use like G80 and kias new GT sports car (possibly even G70?:O ).

    • @VaunShiz
      @VaunShiz 7 років тому +2

      @747-pilot 7 років тому +7

      This car is *MUCH* better (in terms of refinement) than the Lexus LS 460. The V8 in the G90 is much smoother, quieter and refined. The ride in this car, in the "comfort" setting also feels like a "magic carpet". Lexus *used to* make cars like that in the past, but they don't anymore. Case in point: my 2000 Lexus LS 400 with air suspension, which also has the "magic carpet ride" and tomb-like silence inside the cabin.
      The only area where Lexus LS 460 will be superior to the G90 is, reliability, durability and longevity and overall build quality. Nothing can even come close to a Toyota/Lexus in these aspects. However, I expect that the G90 will have at least "decent" reliability (much better than the German cars, for sure!)

      But it's still not a Lexus!

      Genesis G90 is already outselling Lexus LS, Audi a8 and BMW 6 series this year in the U.S.

    The interior looks like a result of mating Audi A8 with Mercedes S600

    the last comment translates as "If you are buying a car to say look at me, look how rich I am " then buy your traditional luxury brands If you want to get a lot of the same features, comfort and performance, that's a bit easier on the wallet then look at the Genesis.
