Just picked up one up with less than 40k Miles for $34,500 Canadian. Which is roughly $27600 Usd and yes it is also a 2018 G80 3.3T sport. Managed to get it in Polar Ice.
I'm like you, I think this body style is a little more sporty than the new ones so in my opinion this is a good deal if you don't have to have a brand new car.
No offense, love car vids from tons of TH-camrs including this channel, just wanted to add a little info. The MSRP of this car was 55k to 58k and you could gat a base Genesis with all the tech but a NA V6 for as low as 43k new. I had one haha. It's a great car but the is definitely not half price. The warrant is 10yr 100k for the engine. I don't think I saw you adjust them but there is driving modes, the paddles and engine would have been more peppy in sport and normal is all comfort. The cars infotainment is older but it does have full wired android auto/car play. The reason I got rid of a car aside of a major accident, was that the rear seats do not fold down. I do like the look of the car and the contrast is supposed to be copper accents inside and out.
I appreciate the comment! I went on the Genesis website (my local dealer) and a fully loaded 2021 G80 was listed for $70K! I was talking about lower trim levels, just what a top of the line model would go for if you choose to buy one! I'm not sure what this model cost brand new, I was saying what the 21 cost brand new! I didn't see any driving modes unless they were hard to find! But it's a cool sedan! I love the look of it and there aren't too many on the roads that I get to see!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed For sure man! the new ones are a bit more. This generation was a bit cheaper as they were still borrowing a lot from the Hyundai parts bin. The drive modes are right under the shifter which can be seen at the (7:42) mark in the vid. There should have been Sport, Comfort, Eco, Snow, and Maybe a custom.
@@mileslynch Doesn’t matter, but I could go to Sydney in Australia to test it out at some point. Other cars I could test in Sydney are the Hyundai Sonata N Line, Nissan Z, Toyota Land Cruiser 300, BMW M3/M4 manual and some others.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed not really. The pre face-lift G80 is more techy than a Lexus GS. And a GS is more techy than an Avalon. Also G80 and GS are AWD while Avalon is only available in FWD (or RWD)
Are you kidding…? This is a Twin Turbo AWD Sport Sedan. The Avalon is…not! Best thing about it as a Luxury/Premium offering is it runs on Regular gas and gets reasonably gas mileage. Infotainment system is also both touch and Wheel controlled, quick and flawless. I’ve owned mine for 4.yrs and I’m still learning some functionality. One of the downsides is the dearth of Dealerships. He should have put it in Sport Mode. Interior Engine sounds are simulated, it’s a sensory deprivation chamber otherwise. Other than the transmission issues, excellent value.
@@jaylanjackson4653it's all about torque as well, all that torque in the V8 will hit at 5000 rpm, so u need to really rev it out but if you keep it in that powerband then it may pass the 3.3 turbo, but the turbo had torque at a much lower rpm so it actually kicks out and does 0 to 60 about a second or 2 faster. I feel like the V8 would do better at highway speeds.

Sweet! Sounds like a great deal!
Dat polar ice Modell is too clean
How are you liking it so far?

Yea for sure! Even then it’s so much cheaper than buying a new one, I don’t know why you’d get a new one when it’ll loose that much!
Let’s go new content ❤️, 4th person whom liked the vid let’s gooo!!!! Keep up the good work!
I appreciate that!! Thank you! First time checking out the Genesis!
Nice review keep up the good work
Thank you!! Pretty cool model to check out from the Genesis!
A heads up! The 10 yr 100k warranty isn't fully transferable. It switches to a 5 yr 60 at 2nd owner.
I know! That happened when I bought a Genesis coupe back in the day!
Yeah, I had to dig to learn that. Just wanted to say that since in the video you said the 10 yr 100k was transferable. Thanks for the video!
@@chriswhusker Ahh, yeah I could have specified a bit more! It’s nice to get that for a used vehicle!
Great video bros 4 speed
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the Genesis video!

Wow! I skipped right over those! Must have not seen them through the camera from that angle!
Great, great review!
Thanks!
In Europe, we get a 2.2-litre diesel or a 2-litre petrol; no 3.3-litre V6 petrol.
Very cool! We won’t have any diesel Genesis models!
Do you wish you had the V6
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I know. Diesels are very unpopular in the states.

@@DaveDVideoMaker the Z is the one I want to drive most of those cars you listed
I think if you are from a BMW 5 series the G80 3.3T might disappoint you. But if you are from an E class or A6 the G80 3.3T would impress you.
Maybe. The German cars all seems pretty similar to me
This is a good deal
It is!! Genesis has some nice models!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I’d much rather pay 40k for this than a Camry, at least this has luxury
I agree! Very cool car!
This or Toyota Avalon
Hmm, the Avalon probably has some more tech, but this has a cooler look!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed not really. The pre face-lift G80 is more techy than a Lexus GS. And a GS is more techy than an Avalon. Also G80 and GS are AWD while Avalon is only available in FWD (or RWD)
@@manofsesame3024 Yeah that’s a good point. Avalon is more old fashion. This is a nice sporty modern car

Love these cars, unfortunately all the switchgear in them is not much different than what's in a Kia Soul. Really hard to overlook that for me.
Yea I can see that! It's a great car, and less expensive than competitors because of that, but still a great option!
0:59 is that a dodge ram charger 1500 semi-trailer that i see on the left??
What do you mean by Dodge Ram charger!? There’s a pickup on the left though!
I'm a big fan of the genesis
They are pretty cool for sure!
looks nice, wish they still had the 5.0!
More power from a smaller engine is the common theme amount manufactures!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed but the 5.0 tau v8 that Hyundai made more hp than any of there tt v6’s the 5.0 v8 was rated for 429 hp
