    Couple years ago Genesis would have been my go to car. But then they decided to put the big screen tv in the front. For that reason alone, I'll take the BMW M8 competition any day. I don't buy my cars based on price, that's the least of my concerns, I buy them because of their practicality, and I dont' want a big screen distracting me from the road.

      @@bdw66 I prefer to leave my big screen tv's at home, where I don't have to worry about keeping my eyes on the road. Making these things legal is just another failure of the NTSA to keep us safe on the roads.

    Great review Anthony. That really is a nice luxe car and the competitors can't come close to that price. I agree with you though that power liftgate and some other features should be standard. The piano black on the interior looks so nice but for sure you'd need lots of microfiber towels on standby lol. 68 here and so nice today. Yesterday was similar but cloudy and no rain. I did hear that the fire up in Malibu is still burning but not spreading thanks God. It sounds like you have been working a lot on your channel and that is great! Can't wait for the new features. Are you planning on doing a livestream tomorrow? If so hope that I can make it. How are things going on your side? Hoping all is well and happy Friday Anthony

      Thank you James. Genesis is awesome, the new team, the updates to the vehicle but I feel the auto industry leaves things out on purpose for the next year lol. I did the type s Integra Thursday (it’s coming very soon) and it’s the same. Gave a little but don’t add everything. Just give us good standard features and luxury with a great drive.
      Sounds like nice weather other than the dryness. Hopefully the fires stop and don’t spread. We had another house in my complex go up in flames today. We normally have maybe 10-30 house catch on fire but not now. Hopefully everyone was alright, no details yet. We have the ac back on, here it’s back in the 80/90 and maybe the high 60/70 at night. It’s still nice weather compared to the 100s we both had. We are doing the livestream tomorrow, getting ready to post it on the community tab and get so feed back on timings. Last week was awesome! It was over an hour with lots of different questions. I didn’t even get to drink my coffee lol. I am almost 50% down with the memberships and think of adding shorts only for members what do you think?
      Happy Friday James hope to see you tomorrow for the Livestream

      @@HawkeyeRides Oh wow you guys are still having some warm weather for sure! I heard it's supposed to heat up next week but the house should stay nice and cool. It's was 59 inside last night and perfect for me😁Shorts for members only sounds like a great idea. I look forward to seeing those and bloopers are always so awesome! I forgot to say that I'm so sorry that your Dad did not have good results from his back surgery. Both of my folks had multiple on their backs and still needed meds. Still waiting on the MRI results but it is the holiday time so I will have patience. I will try for the livestream tomorrow. Same time or? Take care Anthony

      I was able to pull it up hopefully YT stops this. Yeah the walls of the homes in Florida are very thin and the windows even worse. I replaced a couple of them at once and found out that they are 1/8 think it should be 1/4 and that's what I installed. It's the big reason we have to turn on the heat or a/c so quick. When the temp drops inside the house loses about 10-15 degrees in one night.
      I am excited to bring more to the channel that is the reason it's taking a little longer to start them but I think this weekend I will have it all done.
      Thank you James, my dad has had some hard times and it sounds like you have been though it to with family. I hope the MRI comes soon for you with the weather changing I know that effects the pain even more. Look forward to the Livestream and hope to see you James same time 11am est

    It's a nice car but Genesis does so many updates it's hard to keep up. Also, I don't know how long-term reliability and resales are on these cars.

      From my personal experience I tested drove a 2021 G80 fully equipped the other daybasking price was $36k with less than 17k miles. Something was wrong in the roof panel every bump or pot hole in the road made a loud banging noise in the roof. Thought it was the sunroof but that opened and closed without a sound. Sales man asked me if he figured out what the issue was would I still buy it, lost interest at such low miles to have a loud knock.
