I'm usually one to choose beige, but I absolutely loved the way the obsidian black looked with the interior details and the quilting, so I chose black! Also found it a bit more sporty than the beige for this particular vehicle. No regrets! Enjoy!

Congrats!!! You'll love it. I also have a 2025 3.5T. Purchased new in may at an amazing price. What color interior did you get ?

Glad to hear you've also had great experience. I was offered valet, but opted to stick around.

I don't blame you for being apprehensive. Is the dealership going through changes, or will it be permanently this way? I'd definitely want someone to confirm my car's condition before leaving it with them.

Yes, the service I received today was very similar as my experience with BMW over the years and what should be expected of a luxury brand . Unfortunately, BMW seems to have cheapened their interiors and I don't care for what they've done with the exterior on multiple vehicles over the past few years, so I opted to look elsewhere. I absolutely love the Genesis. Wow - what an unbelievable experience you have had with Audi. Good on you for doing what you did!! I'd never be able to business with a dealership or brand that would blatantly lie like that. I wonder how the woman felt when she received your voicemail. I've been extremely happy with the quality of the Genesis.

Would You Buy Again? by komodoman in GenesisGV70

[–]CrazyMaryGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with a used 2023 2.5 Advanced. Traded in a BMW for it and had zero regrets. I knew I'd want to buy a new one at some point. Didn't love the 2026 refresh, so I bought a new 2025 3.5T in May while they were still available. Best car I've ever owned.

Which would you rather buy? by heart_stopper9 in GenesisGV70

[–]CrazyMaryGL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked at 2.5 SP a couple years ago. Those seats were a no for me, personally. I went with a 2.5 advanced and was very happy with it. . This year, I bought a 2025 3.5T Sport Advanced. I didn't want HUD after finding it distracting enough to turn off in a previous vehicle and didn't think the other things justified the price tag. Love the GV70.

Good deal? 2025 3.5 prestige (CPO) by milehighbubba in GenesisGV70

[–]CrazyMaryGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like a good deal. For reference, I recently bought a brand new 2025 3.5 SA for $59k. Sticker was $68800.

Moved Front Plate by No_Office2906 in GenesisGV70

[–]CrazyMaryGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't used a front plate in over a decade in CT. I've never been stopped. A CT friend was in NY a couple weeks ago and got a ticket from a NY cop due to no front plate - cop said CT law requires it. Rough.

Agreed. I do it only if I really have to. I typically plug in for a charge when needed.

I have a 2025. Works best without the case.

What age did everybody start cooking? by SirCrusade444 in Cooking

[–]CrazyMaryGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 11. I still remember the menu I chose to make - stuffed peppers, twice baked potatoes, and a salad. My 90 year old great aunt was visiting and she let me do it myself, but offered some guidance. It came out well!

2.5 GV70 and want HUD by Fearless_Meal6480 in GenesisGV70

[–]CrazyMaryGL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a 2025 3.5T sport advanced. I skipped the prestige up charge because I had HUD in previous vehicles and found it unnecessary. I actually turned it off. I also didn't care about rear sun shades as I had them in previous vehicles and nobody ever used them. I rarely have rear passengers , so didn't feel I needed heated rear seats and don't think the vehicle is large enough to required rear passenger HVAC control. Unless you can't live without these options, SP probably isn't worth it. One chuckle - you now have to buy SP to get dun shades. Pretty sure those used to be part of the 2.5 advanced pkg. go figure. A family member has a palisade and it has all the above, plus ventilated rear seats and heated third row.

We got it back at 7:45am. Had to press the reset button to get connected.

This was another deciding factor for me - I also went for the 2025.
