I was thinking of trading in my 2015 for a while since the warranty was done but I was disappointed when the 2021 model released without a V8. The G90 was the only car left on the market with a NA V8 so I started looking around... saw a few demo cars listed around $75k... I said no but checked periodically and they kept dropping the price... finally, one of them sold at $59,999 and it had 10,000kms on it... so when I saw this one with 5,000kms drop the price to $59,999, I rushed to pull the trigger.
Makes sense, nobody wants sedans anymore and nobody wants a gas guzzler... and let's be honest, people looking for this class of car is going to buy the 7 Series or S class. They don't know what a Genesis is... so in a time when people are paying 20-30% above retail for a normal car, I got a full size luxury sedan for 30% off retail. With the trade in, the total came in about $41k
It's bigger than I'd like, the 124" wheelbase took some getting used to but it's a nice highway cruiser, especially after I installed OpenPilot. If you see a 2020-2022 G90, wave... it's probably me... they only sold like 120 of them in Canada... lol

Wow 60k is an insane deal. Considering they're 89k new that's one hell of a deal. I always loved the G90, it's so obscure it makes it cool and unique.
Did you get the 19" multi-spoke? Love those wheels.
Best thing about Genesis is you get that 5 year they come to your house pick up your car and service it when needed. Don't have to think/worry.

This is the final year for this generation so they're just selling what's left as 2022 models. 2020 and 2021 had more colour choices. The 2023 looks much better since it was designed from the ground up with the new design language. The 2020-2022 was a face lift of the 2017-2019 and it doesn't really work.

Reflected how grateful I am to be able to do such a “normal” thing like clean my car in total peace.

Well... it's a very capable vehicle, but it's quite immense in size... I was parked next to you in the grid and feeling very tiny.
And I think you were on street tires or snows even? That said, it was raining like crazy/standing water that day so my race tires weren't exactly hooking up.

Yeah, she’s a big girl and pretty hefty. Those luxury features and the panoramic sunroof sure adds up - 3800lbs and change. Also the kart track at MRP isn’t exactly wide lol. Was running Michelin Pilot Alpin 4s that day and I can tell you they didn’t appreciate it, even with the wet and cool weather. Got a bit of feathering on the shoulders. They were at 6/32nds so I’ll be replacing them at the end of this trip as I’m basically burning them down by going to California lol. LA was 27-30c at times, they felt weird on the freeway there.
