2013 Hyundai Equus Signature 4dr Sedan (5.0L 8cyl 8A)

I purchased a 2013 Equus in December of 2012. The car have lived up to all of my expectations. I looked at BMW, Mercedes, and Audi and non of them could come close to the features of the Equus for the price. I could of spent $40,000 or $50,000 more for one of their cars with similar features. One of the biggest difference in the Equus vs. the other manufactures is the engine! Try to buy a german manufacture car with 429 Hp. You better bring your check book! I changed the logo on the trunk and no one knows what it is. The car gets a ton of looks and compliments. Save yourself a fortune and get this car, you won't be disappointing.
Solid car and fun drive for less $$$

Bought a used 2014 Equus signature and all I can say is wow baby! I have owned 2 Audi A8s, MB E500, 650i conv BMW, 2017 mustang gt conv, and I do not miss any of them. The power from the Equus V8 is more than enough to satisfy my cravings for quick acceleration from any speed. 0 to 60, or 45 to 70, or 75 to 100 mph, this baby can get you there quickly in total comfort. I am 6ft2 and my singular and I mean singular complaint is the driver legroom when the seat is raised higher. If I lower the seat, no problem, but after 2 back surgeries, sometimes I need to raise it up some. Legroom is still adequate, but I do like to stretch out sometimes on highway long rides. Fuel economy is better than listed if you don't drag race at every stoplight. I we not from VA beach to Tampa, Fl and back. Almost 2600 miles in 4 days and I averaged 27.2 mpg at an average speed of 77 mph. Much better than its advertised mpg. Sound system is great with the 14 speaker lexicon system. I have the rear entertainment package and heads up display, blind side detection and adaptive cruise control. When I drive it, i remember the comfort and road poise I felt in my Audi A8s. Better reliability with Hyundai for much less. Miss the AWD, but doubt I will need that in Florida. I have a GMC Denali for the crappy weather days. Speaking of my Denali with active noise cancellation which is AWESOME! :), the Equus is pretty darn quiet too at highway speeds. If you are looking for a solid luxury car without the German reliability nightmare and high cost of ownership, I highly recommend the Equus. It's big and long, but so is the Audi A8L, MB S class, Jaguar XJL, and the Acura RLX. I test drove them all several times, and I would still pick the Equus over all of them. Besides, depending on where you live, there are not too many Audi, MB, Jaguar and Acura dealerships so your towing expense is going to be high. Finally, if you like to drive something that everybody does not have or know someone who has, then the Equus is for you. The reviews are great and the car is a solid, well built machine. Your money, but why waste it on something that will spend more time in the shop than your garage and you will trade as soon as the warranty expires.

I previously owned a 2013 Hyundai Equus & unfortunately lost it after loosing a 10 year job due to layoffs. I became ill in August of 2017 & homeless by Dec 2018. I really loved my car...the look, the ride, the style was so amazing. It didn't matter where I went so many people complimented it's beauty. I don't know if you've ever experienced the ride, but I long for the opportunity to own another. I don't know why Hyundai changed the body style in it's newer models, but there isn't any comparison. If you are able to test drive the older model in your state, please let them know this Marine Vet sent you... Dwayne

Had the car about 6 weeks and 1200 miles. By far the best luxury value on the market. No, It does not handle like a sports car...it's a luxury car! I for one want it to ride like a luxury car. If I wanted a sports car, that's what I would have bought. So far we love it! Update, car is now 6 years old... Couple of minor paint issues which were taken care of by Hyundai. Still a great car. Update: After 3 years the car has been great. Had some paint issues on the front bumper that was taken care of hassle free. UPDATE: After 4 years I had to have the seat messager pump replaced...under warranty. I know, 1st world problems! Been a good car so far and you forget how nice it is until you drive a different car. UPDATE: Car is now 7 years old, still looks and runs like new. Great vehicle. UPDATE: Car is traded in on a Tesla. Owned it about 8 years, very minor issues. I would purchase again.

Just about the same car as expensive brands from Germany but with more technology and a much much better warranty. Also when you take your Equus into the dealer your do not need a second mortgage on your house to pay the cost of maintenance.The best rear seat comfort that I have ever experienced. I have two Equuses and neither have let me down. A great car for a great price with a great warranty!
