    The title really says it all. We could probably say the same thing about the LS. You can build high quality, but someone has to want what you build. The world wants SUVs, a sedan drives better, is more fuel efficient, can be beautiful.......but very few want them. I mean, I saw a guy driving a Smart car the other day proud as a peacock, so to each their own. Maybe the sedan will make a comeback. A year ago, we were going EV, no doubt, now maybe not so quick. I still find it odd with the excellent hybrids available that they were not pushed as part of the transition. If you figure it out, I'll be glad to hear what you come up with.

    I went shopping for a luxury automobile here in San Jose, Hyundai dealership did not have any G 90s, and wouldn’t have any for at least 90 days …went across the street and bought an LS 500 and I have to tell you I’m gonna keep the car for a while and I’m glad I did ….when Hyundai passes the test of longevity, Maybe I’ll come back , and not having one on the lot at least for test drives? that’s ridiculous.

    There are several factors that make it difficult to position a car like the Genesis in the market, starting with overcoming the image of the "Hyundai driver loser".
    But the almost cliche fetish of the European car is still an obstacle even for Lexus and even affects a mega traditional brand like Cadillac.
    It seems to me that the only way forward - which even guaranteed a place in the sun for Lexus - is to offer a very reliable car, with lasting quality.
    A low-maintenance car, which still had full product warranty coverage for a long time, guaranteeing second-hand business, and an aggressive value policy when exchanging cars in the same brand at dealerships would be a good start.

On the other hand the Ioniq6 has a more sophisticated suspension and handling and I know that’s an SUV but the Ioniq actually feels like it’s worth the money.

    I have a G90, and although it’s great the dealership customer service falls so short of expectation it seems like parody. Genesis is bolted on inside a Hyundai dealer and you will feel like you have a Hyundai. From not answering the phone, phone calls not returned, online scheduling not working, weeks out for regular maintenance, not resetting service indicator(s), improperly inflating the tires, and taking 3-4 hours to change oil with an appointment. Nobody wants it nor will they if they if can’t get it together. All the competition (at least that I’ve tried) has it dialed in better.

I don't care how much cheaper it is compared to the 7 series or S class, $100K is way too much for any car, especially for one that (fully equipped) had an MSPR of $74K in its prior iteration.

      Flagship luxury cars are not made for people who think $100k is too much money for a car.
      It's made for people who have the means, or are savvy enough to figure out things like leasing, incentives, discounts, etc.
      Nobody bought it for $74k either. They're better off milking the few people that do want to buy into this brand and charge $100k.
      For the person that has the means, $74k, $100k, $120k, those are all the same numbers for these people.
      The average income of a new Porsche buyer is $500k-$1 Million per year.
      For those that don't have the wherewithal to play in this segment (which is 99% of the population) they make a new 5 speed manual Versa for $17k but people act like that doesn't exist.

      @@MeynMotorGroup That is a logical answer if we go by the textbook, but we've got to be realistic. Most people buying Genesis are looking for value, just like they do with Infiniti and Lexus. The LS500, perhaps its closest competitor, only sells because it gets substantially discounted. While I do admire Genesis's intention, they're doing very little to discount these. So either they're willing to wait as long as possible for someone to purchase close to MSRP or they're trying to solely make a statement on having a high MSRP car in their lineup, regardless of whether it sells or not. And most people in this segment are fixated on the 7 series and S class, the enthusiasts with deeper pockets will go for the Bentley and those looking for an anomaly will typically go for an Aston.

    Korean designs just seem so childish to me. The interior interface looks like a Hasbro toy.
    And the logo looks too similar to Aston Martin. Everything else about the exterior is beautiful though.

      @@Niles-Guy there’s something called a trade in my friend where you can sell your car before your lease or finance contract ends. You are able to finance a car for 12 years but sell it the next day if you want to. Nobody is forcing you to keep the car til loan maturity. I hope this makes sense. May God Bless you.

      Only in America they’re not selling. Americans wants to be fake gangsters and look rich with no money. I work with 6 figure earners they drive Toyota Honda some Audi. I have a g80 and all looking to get one. Don’t always believe the hype. Benz and bmw isn’t selling as much as you ppl think to ppl with money. Poor ppl buying them getting repoed

    The problem is a service.
    I trade in my Genesis for a BMW because of the unacceptable service.
    Genesis must have a separate service from Hyundai.
    Also, the materials' quality is much worth using on BMW and Mercedes.
