Carbon82 Moderator June 22, 2022 Share June 22, 2022 Basket! I thought I clicked into the wrong thread. Title says Genesis, but scrolling from page 1 to 2, all I see is Toyota, Lexus, Nissan, Infiniti, Mercedes, etc. and I nearly spit when someone mentioned 'Swallow'. Come on, it is a bird lah, what thinking you? OK back to topic, let me share some insider info. A total of 4 unit of G80 was brought in between end of last year and Mar this year. The first 2 were shipped out to Johor (not difficult to guess its owner), and this other 2 for local evaluation. Probably another 2 will arrive before end of the year. No confirmation if it will finally be on the local product line up though. Beside the cost, supply (allocation) remain a challenge, at least for now. 10 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confusedboi Supercharged June 22, 2022 Share June 22, 2022 I think i did see once a genesis G80 at SPC along Dunearn road think a few weeks back. Didnt take a picture of it though sadly. The lady driver seemed rather annoyed that day when paying for the petrol.😆 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Merc E uses different materials in China vs Germany. That's why they sell different price and call it different grade is totally justifiable 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end boils down to badge status which Hyundai is lacking. In other markets the genesis brand is selling rather well like in USA. Asian markets in particular value face and bagde snobbery more than ang moh markets. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korean car brands are definitely not for you if you want to be perceived as wealthy and successful. The Germans are the ones to go for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I finally chanced upon one driving past at Leng Kee. A current gen white G80, really swee. I think must be there for servicing.

Aiyah, I can tell you lah, it is all how you look at it. If you say Lexus look like Toyota, then why people buy Lexus. Some people also say Merc latest E class look like Kia. I don't mind leh, if COE is 50K I will buy liao. I also like the New NX. Buy what you like lah, people all will keep saying one ↡ Advertisement 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
