You had more fun than I thought! Haha thanks for reviewing my car man appreciate the honesty! We should link up soon and get the Genesis on the dyno. I mean we’re practically neighbors 😏
Xtalgic _ what would be the best year to get these r specs in? And is there any differences between pre 2014 r specs ? Unless u find a thread somewhere doe me to read link me 😬😅
Compa Cheo 13-14’s presumably don’t have oil consumption issues. The only difference between the two, is that, the 14’s come with heated steering wheels.
@@Xtalgic Hey have you had any problems with left or right front break not squeezing cuz I noticed that on my 2013 sometimes not all the times but sometimes the front left wont work and when I break car veers right. 🧐
bought a new Genesis 4.6 in 2010. put 156,000 miles on it. Never had one problem. ran and drove like new when I sold it. Best car I have ever owned by far!
Have a Genesis 5.0 R Spec, bought it a year ago : most probably Xtaglic made me do it. Despite the infotainment quirks and non up to date shift point data > Ive beaten several Vettes Stangs BMW's and Audis. This $hit is a total Sleeper. Couldnt be happier. Great Video!
I just picked up the 2015 3.8 sedan fully loaded, so it is the 2nd generation but I do still love the 1st generation I was actually in search of one but stumbled upon a 2015 at a killer price (10k cash out the door was up for 12.5k) and boy the luxury is cranked up to 10 in it I absolutely love love love it. That said this is still a bea°U°tiful car the owner did a really great job!
I watched this video before and probably said this...but there is not blind spot monitoring in that car. I wish it did. Other than that, nice video man!
@@booniedavillier504 right at 135k. Already sold it actually. But it is a very fast car, this one just left me on the side of the road twice in a month. Took it as a bad omen
@@booniedavillier504 no. It's an amazing vehicle. Don't make your decision based on my luck. Just do your research on those "low mileage" vehicles. Might be city miles and the car has lived a stop and go life.
really good mpg for a V8 hyundai is good about that luckily, also crazy how basically everything still works and i know xtalgic puts on the miles and has daily'd that car for years
So I was looking at the 3.8 coupes. But I really just want something that's fast, more luxurious than my 2013 mazda 3, and reliable. I'm thinking this checks those boxes way better than the coupe, and the deals are even better on them some how. Plus quicker at a stoplight. I'm thinking this is gonna be the obvious choice for me.
He mentioned this review was in 2019, when the car was 7 years old. By the time a BMW is anywhere near that age, it’ll be a shop magnet money pit. Genesis by Hyundai will motor on with reliability the BMW can’t match, not even close.
Just as an info thing. I know Ford has Radar Cruise Control and Lane Keep Assist as early as 2013 in the Fusion, I think the Radar Cruise is in most Fusions with the Titanium package. Oh and also, you can pick those Fusions up for less than $20k all day and they are pretty nice! I don't think that they started the heated steering wheel and A/C (ventilated) seats until 2014 however. But I also know they had the self parking as early as 2013. Haha, we have a 2013 Fusion if it isn't obvious. If you ever make it out to Utah, I'd love to have you review it! Awesome content bro! Keep it up!
Just picked up a one owner old mans car with 37K miles 😮😮 mint Platinum with black leather 2012 R-Spec Loaded, stock and mint. Im pretty excited to find this in 2024.
If the trans was faster it'd be a good race. The SS's seem to lose less in the Drivetrain and I think I'm not sure but I think they make their power on regular unleaded
I think the ss is faster by a little, but cost about 3 times as much. SS doesn't seem to depreciate. Never sold well new (cause it looked like a dressed up Cobalt), but those who know, know.
Saw a channel where a dude's rspec went toe to toe with a Camaro ZL1 just with a tune! They're filthy 😂much more of a sleeper than an isf which is also a great choice

I'm buying one of these tomorrow. I love its sleeper status.
The Adventure Auto did you get it after all? If so how is it so far?
My 2013 5.0 R Spec, best car I ever owned.
A V8 performance sedan that won't get every cop in your zip code looking out for you.
Elia's vids are the main reason I pulled the trigger on my '13 R Spec. Zack's review also helped me greatly, love his laughing when he punches it!

One of the best cars for the money. Can't go wrong with a genesis.
I think you just convinced me to get this as a first car lmao
Just bought one yesterday for 7k. Loving it!
Congrats bro how many miles was on it when u got it??

@@markking2310 thanks for the advice
Is this Xstalgic’s ride? Brembo convo, blacked out front and black chrome, coil overs, Genesis wheels. Or a clone?
I’m about to buy one. I am so glad I found your review!! They are such nice cars!!
How has it been? Mine is coming Monday. One owner low miles. I'm psyched 😂
It’s an 8 spd? I thought it was a 5. Still amazing 😍
really good mpg for a V8 hyundai is good about that luckily, also crazy how basically everything still works and i know xtalgic puts on the miles and has daily'd that car for years
2004 Lexus LS430 had radar cruise control. Annoying as hell, but revolutionary.

I've had 4 bmw's........I'm not going to argue with you. You might be right.😂
I just found a 2012 5.0L R-Spec in platinum. One owner with 37k miles. Stock mint unmolested. I'm pretty excited. I bought it immediately 😂
@@rayrugahthey are beautiful cars that are amazing when right I get why people love em.
I wanna see this car get put on a dyno so curious what its putting down specially since i know this particular one is pretty high mileage.
They actually don't have blind spot monitoring, only Lane keep monitor.
Does NOT have blind spot monitoring. I have one. Wish it did. Rather have that than lane keep assist.
By any chance do you guys know how many miles they could go for? I’m really interested in finding one.
from the little research i did to help you here, it seems anywhere from 200k -250k depending on how well it’s maintained
Excellent overview.! Great breakdown by the moderator.! Great car.! I know so, ( because.!)😊
This video made me get this car I’m the only person in my city with it it’s so fun
I'm happy with my 3.8 V6 Azera but thinking about upgrading to a 5.0 Genesis
Needs a tcu tune. Shifts are slow. Impressive still though
This was my first and only car. And it’s my mom car/race car 😂

Good Luck getting a Fusion with 429P.
Great video and info, thanks.
Lexus LS 430 had radar cruise in 2001-2006. thats the oldest radar cruise I can think of

I wonder how these compete with the chevy ss
If the trans was faster it'd be a good race. The SS's seem to lose less in the Drivetrain and I think I'm not sure but I think they make their power on regular unleaded
This is faster than ss I race one already with my r spec
I think the ss is faster by a little, but cost about 3 times as much. SS doesn't seem to depreciate. Never sold well new (cause it looked like a dressed up Cobalt), but those who know, know.
looks like a mercedes btw 1st comment luv ur vids i hope we can chat more
Are the wheels a direct fit from stock??
*also can watch movies in there on the infotainment
great review man, thank god hyundai is smart and went with RWD instead of FWD, sheesh
The peasant blocker lmfao
These 5.0 liters have oil consumption issues from what i hear.
Just early 2012 models. Later 2012 and up the rings were changed.
@@TheAdventureAuto yes but I have a 2013 and I have to add a quarter oil every 2 k miles that's the only issue I have with the car
@@b58forever A quarter is normal for most cars.
@@TheAdventureAuto I hope is normal
@@TheAdventureAuto What date in 2012 should one look for to get the modified version?
Hyundai and Kia drivers definitely have a bad driver stigma
I call this the poors mans ISF
Sell me those rims
I’m torn between this or a Lexus ISF both cars are sleepers and reliability is there.
Saw a channel where a dude's rspec went toe to toe with a Camaro ZL1 just with a tune! They're filthy 😂much more of a sleeper than an isf which is also a great choice
ISF’s are commanding a much higher price than a Genius .
Genesis.
