    You’re awesome, Rosenthal. I went Korean for my last lease (2015 KIA K900). Loved the naturally aspirated V8, overall it was a great car. Only got 11-miles mpg around town though, although I did get almost 25 on the highway in Eco mode.
    This time I went German, just got a 2018 BMW M550i and it’s an amazing machine. Thanks for the high-quality reviews and insight.

    There is no other car that gives you the same “Weightiness of the vehicle”in this price range. You can pick up brand new 2019 year model for less than $45k or 2018 year model with ultra low mileage for around $31k.

    Really liking this car a lot waiting to see how the g70 turns out once its actually released. Did you notice any jean color transfer on those seats? That is the one thing i would be concerned about white seats. My other concern is when i looked at a g80 last year was not impressed wirh the hyundai dealerships and there lack of knowledge regarding genesis. Great video.

    • @chonaV
      @chonaV 7 років тому

      Danny Thomas ...True. I’ve leased Lexuses years ago. Yes, they’re comfortable and quiet, but I always had interior vibration or rattling noise in all of them. Not sure if it was just the units I got. But then most cars I’ve had always have some interior rattling noise. Some worse than others. The only cars I’ve had that consistently didn’t have interior rattling noise, are bmw’s. Tire and wind noise are bad in my bmw’s though, so it does not isolate you like how the Lexus does.

      The 3.3TT V6 gets worse gas mileage than the 5.0 V8 and is less reliable ? On what actual data do you base this ? My Stinger does 8.9 L/100KM on the highway, and 13 in the city. The best the 5.0 V8 has can do is about 10 L/100KM on the highway and 16 city !
