I had a BMW 528i, was in the market for a new car. My first option was the nee Mercedes E class. I have had several Mercedes E . I test drive the Genesis , my son and two car fans , did too. We were very impressed. After having the car for over a year , I can asure the GÉNESIS was the right choose. Impressive

I bought it new in October 2017 and fell in love with it instantly. While I don't believe there is a 5 start car on the road this is a full 4 that makes me happy. I run a private car transportation business. I say I'll drive anywhere ,anytime. I now have just over 70 ,000 miles on my G80 3.8. For safety sake I just put on new tires and outside of following MFG maintenance guidelines I have done nothing but change oil and rotate tires. I have had over 500 trips to airports, Doctors offices and weddings with several being out of state. One of the most common things I hear is, "what kind of car is this. its really nice and comfortable". I have had 4 ladies in it with lots of luggage that fit in the large trunk. I don't do Uber, but they list it as a luxury car and ask top dollar. My customers have come to know the quality, comfort and handling of my car and it represents my company very well.

A Lexus ES350 similarly equipped will cost less and have a much better shopping experience and resale value. Genesis needs stand alone dealerships to compete in the luxury space. However, it does look the best at its price but it takes a backseat in the refinement category. I highly encourage folks to test drive several in this category. You'll look at the Genesis on paper and think it should easily top the others. Driving them will show you why cars like this shouldn't be chosen based on specs alone. The quality of the material, how things actually work, road feel, resale, dealer experience and gas mileage are some items that prevented me from pulling the trigger.

Great ride, comfortable quiet well laid out controls. Feature packed, value priced. Free maintenance for three years with loaner cars. Warranty is best in industry.
