Nice videos! I own a 2013 r-spec black sedan w/tan interior. In 7 yrs of ownership you are the only person on youtube that love's this car as much as myself. Keep it up💪
Add me to the list. I have 145,000 miles and I still turn heads and pull on Charger s and Challengers. My only mechanical failure was an alternator and a bad shift in the trans. Under warranty Hyundai gave me a rebuilt trans and she is going strong.
Great vid I live in Fla I use premium gas and run 275 40-R19 in the rear and I constantly get 4.7 to 4.8 to 4.9 small chirp on the rear tires I got over 70000 miles on it car been great such a sleeper
Nice runs. Quick note for consideration... Although the tires are cold, so is the air making it more dense. Without further mods, i doubt you'll be able to get lower than 4.8. If you do, we'll be looking forward to seeing it!!
@Xtalgic how long did you own the genesis and did you have any major problems or services during your time of ownership? Kinda looking to get one but most are over 85-90k+ miles. Thanks in advanced!
Those are very consistent runs! I'm sure your times would be faster with a dragy though, definitely give it a try next time, you'll be surprised at how fast your car actually is lol
Love the vids My 13 is creeping up there with yours 136k Now and unfortunately on my 3rd trans as if 2k ago all covered by Hyundai ..So they stood behind the failures But still love this car it’s unique and decently quick for the $
I also have a 13. I bought it at 22k miles and I have had the transmission replaced 3 times under warranty. I have 130k miles now and it is on transmission #4 if you count the original one. STRONG motor but the transmission may be underbuilt.....I don't even drive my car hard and it has been eating up transmissions.
Quick question. When I put mine in Manual mode and hit the gas it red lines ( ie. Doesn't shit on it's own ) but look like yours shifts from Manual mode ? I have 2012 R-Spec
@@Xtalgic I'm the second owner. The 1st owner was a college professor who didn't like the gas mileage he was getting in the car. I meet him one day when car was at the dealership getting a oil change.

So Hyundai and Kia is kinda known for low quality parts, as it reaches 100k miles, suspension noises start, creaks and weird noises. For these or the 4.6, how would you say the quality has been?
@@Xtalgic I did lol. You only said 275s I mean front and rear what full size. 275 45 19s rear 245 45 19 fronts? What full size front and rear. My rspec came stock with 235 45 19s I thought 275s would fit but at what sidewall size I didnt know
@@Xtalgic and if I were to get some BC coils to drop the car a little bit would it rub. Pretty sure I saw a vid where you lowered the car but is it still lowered with the new rims and 275s on the rear. Just trying to get my sidewalls right front and back so they dont rub being to high or too wide

Subscribed!!! I'm going to trade my 07 ls460 in for a 5.0, the only thing I'm not sure about is which year? You've got me REALLY considering this VERY reasonably priced tank, but i like the restyling of the 15+....
Welcome Joel! If you want a first generation I’d go with a 13-14 to avoid excessive oil consumption issues. And if you like the restyling I’d go with a 2016+ because I’ve read the 15’s have A LOT of electrical issues. Cheers friend!
I wouldn't trade a Lexus ls460 for a Hyundai Genesis 5.0 r spec any day, the Genesis have poorly built transmissions, I've actually found a reasonably priced low mileage Genesis r spec but I am scared to get it because everyone says they run through transmissions.
Do you clean the intake valves in the manifold? Those may affect your results. Carbon deposits on the rings of the pistons will decrease compression and hence horsepower. I recommend try CRC Intake valve cleaner and then a BG EPR flush then oil change. Nice work.
Ave you had any issues with evap system. Going to try the CRC cleaner, maybe. Was going to sell my R spec since I now have a 2015 ultimate, but the Rspec is so good, I might sell the 2015

Hey thanks a lot Costa! Appreciate your comment my dude.
Love your real world takes on this car.
I'm thinking of picking one up this year.

@Xtalgic how long did you own the genesis and did you have any major problems or services during your time of ownership? Kinda looking to get one but most are over 85-90k+ miles.
Thanks in advanced!
what tuner do you have? shifts sound faster than normal
Beautiful machine
Beautiful engineer ❤️
Design for the end
Nice man! That's what I figured 4.8 is nice! I've got a 2011 4.6 with a few basic bolt ons and fastest I've got so far was 5.1 and thats on 235s.
🤘🤘
Those are very consistent runs! I'm sure your times would be faster with a dragy though, definitely give it a try next time, you'll be surprised at how fast your car actually is lol
That’s the plan!
When I had my Genesis 5.0. I hit a consistent 5 sec 0-60.
That's about where I'm at, 5.0 seconds flat to 60, and my R-Spec has 243k on the clock.
Killer vid as always man 💯
And thanks as always Chris!
Looking forward to the upcoming Genesis content!
You guy are getting three this week!
Next Video: How I Improved my 0-60 times by taking out the back seats and draining the washer fluid!
AND softening the rebound on the rear shocks haha
Love these kinda vids
Me too
Nice! I think you’re the only one doing content on the Bh Genesis. Dope content!👍🏿💯
Thanks man!
Love the vids

@@hnnyrn9647 did you end up buying one?
@@ascencio_77 no I ended up getting a 2013 Infiniti g37x
Yes as you mentioned dragy is the way to go. You can borrow it and try it on your own. Good video. I enjoyed
Thanks dude! And I might take you up on that offer haha
Did you keep any of the aftermarket parts?
Wait there’s a manual mode? How does it work?
Hmmm i wonder if these timing chain are still weak
Thanks Still best Bang for the Buck have 144 thousand miles just as strong as when I got it with 2000 miles on it
Hell ya this is awesome to hear! If you take care of them, they’ll take care of you.
No 1/4 mile?
Have you ever had any transmission slipping, and have you ever serviced/changed transmission fluid?
Like twice in 5+ years of ownership and only did the service once at around 80k.
Quick question. When I put mine in Manual mode and hit the gas it red lines ( ie. Doesn't shit on it's own ) but look like yours shifts from Manual mode ? I have 2012 R-Spec
Really!? You must be tuned then and not even know it.

Aren't headers and tuning available for these now ?
I bet those would help alot
No headers. Only exhaust, Intake, pcm and tcm tune. Thats it
car is great. still love my 2013 rspec
How many transmissions did you have to go through already.
@@solomontillman1574 I have 123000 miles on my 2013 rspec. Original transmission

Hi any one tell me why my rspec 5.0 2013 slow acceleration ?
So Hyundai and Kia is kinda known for low quality parts, as it reaches 100k miles, suspension noises start, creaks and weird noises. For these or the 4.6, how would you say the quality has been?
Times have changed my friend. We’ve even figured out how to fly in outer space these day’s.
My R-Spec feels better than a 2005 E320 Benz and a 2008 5-series BMW I've driven. No real quality issues. Interesting electronic quibbles is all.
What size tires are you running front and rear. Wanted to go wide in the back with my '12
And yours is lowered isnt it
Watch the video..
@@Xtalgic I did lol. You only said 275s I mean front and rear what full size. 275 45 19s rear 245 45 19 fronts? What full size front and rear. My rspec came stock with 235 45 19s I thought 275s would fit but at what sidewall size I didnt know

Do you always use premium fuel? And how is your 8 speed holding up? All I hear is how these transmissions are weak.
99% of tank fill ups under my ownership has been 93. And luckily my transmission has been good, but I hear the same thing.
@@Xtalgic Yea I used to do 87 on occasion with mine. Mainly for long vacation drives. I stopped when I raced a Red Sport 400 and lost by a hair. If only I had 93 🤦
@@Xtalgic hey what elevation you at
@@Xtalgic yep my transmission shift very rough sometimes but sometimes shift smooth it's being like that since I bought the car 2 years ago.
About a 1000ft
Do you think a pedal controller can improve the times?
Doubt it.

@@solomontillman1574 mine has 243k on the original trans and still shifts properly. Stop going by reviews alone..
Go with the '14, they added Bluetooth music streaming which was unavailable on the '12-'13
On manual mode what’s the max rpm the car let’s u get to beacuse I know it has a limit
6750 apparently
Great video, can you do a 1/4 mile times video please
Can i install 2012-2014 headlights on my 2009?
Maybe.. but you’ll prob get a AFLS fault on your dash
Xtalgic _ oh ok thanks for you reply bro I’ll see if I can
Would you get a pedal cammnder ? For it
No sir, doesn’t make your car faster.
@@Xtalgic but it makes the response sm better
@@Xtalgic what do you recommend to make time faster
i have one , it does help with regular driving throttle response .. i like it on the low settings.
How many miles do you have on your baby? It still sounds great for it's age!... Keep up with the videos
Got it, 140k
Is that a better acceleration than the e60 v10 ?
Idk Paul is too hesitant to launch it lol I’ll try and convince him in a future video. Doesn’t matter though because the M5’s top end is freakish.
The m5 V10 goes 205 MPH
I am considering buying this or a volvo s80 t6. Would this be worth buying at 90-100k miles?
How much horsepower is the 5.0?
420 horse and 380 torque
429hp and 376ft lb torque
Do you clean the intake valves in the manifold? Those may affect your results. Carbon deposits on the rings of the pistons will decrease compression and hence horsepower. I recommend try CRC Intake valve cleaner and then a BG EPR flush then oil change.
Nice work.
Never have.
I have uaed Seafoam through the intake and TB. mine runs smooth at 123000 miles
In manual mode does it shift automatically without you touching the shifter? What's the difference, it just shifts higher?
It does shift automatically in manual. Idk if there’s a difference but I seemed to get better times 🤷♂️
I just buy me one of these cars hope it's reliable
How’s it going with the car? I’m looking to buy one
My 2013 R Spec just has 94,000, but check engine light on. Still runs great
Ave you had any issues with evap system. Going to try the CRC cleaner, maybe. Was going to sell my R spec since I now have a 2015 ultimate, but the Rspec is so good, I might sell the 2015
Good thing gas is cheap! 🤣
Haha exactly!
0 to 60 in 4.8 seconds, but the M5 can do 0 to 100 in 6.2.. I love German cars!! BMW rules for sure..
Then the bmw breaks down up the road and get passed 😂
Like comment for dis car dislike for g37
My 3.8 genesis coupe gt has gotten 5.1 seconds 0 to 60. if a 5 liter is this slow 🐌 you must be running uphill 😜
Watch the whole video... I’m not going to explain why your comment is dumb.
The sedan is way heavier stupid comment....I own a 3.8 genesis.....the 5.0 with beat with 3.8 coupe all day...
The sedan weighs at least 600lbs more than the coupe, genius 🥱🥴
BTW, the sedan is faster than the coupe, I'd be happy to show you my taillights.
You need better tires
Want to race 😂
Leggo
Xtalgic _ giddy up haha
