[@megashae468]

I had a chance to compare a 2020 E class (without magic body control) and the G80, and i have to say, the genesis trumps over the G80 over less maintained roads. Whereas the E class is supreme in highway conditions. I live in South Korea and most roads are really well maintained in the capital, but there are some regional cities that seemingly have a budget of $2.70 per year, and in those cities, the G80 seems to be the most popular luxury car brand overall. The E class is too Harsh over potholes and the like, Whereas the G80 glides over them more smoothly. On the highway, the G80 is too wallows a bit too much and there is comparatively more wind and road noise when you go over 70mph. Overall both are great cars and i am looking forward to see how the new 2024 E class compares against the aging 5 series and A6 along with the Lexus ES and this G80.

[@unkownguy962]

you are right about the wind noise above 120km but its acceptable. i have the g80 2023..but road noise or bumps + pattholes its smooth..perfect isolation which is very important to me!

The Acura is a Honda... It's not in the league of a Genesis

[@MrHicks-lo8vn]

Genesis has done it AGAIN!! I see them running into the same issue that Bruce Lee and Michael Jackson had to deal with, and that was to be BETTER than themselves which was next to impossible! The G80 will be a HUGE hit in spite of the SUV zombie state that most folks are in. I do see many features in this car that was borrowed from the great Kia K900 ( look up the K900 and you will see what I mean) NOT a fan of the stop/ start feature but a BIG fan of the "Auto Brake Hold" which to me has become a deal breaker! This car has everything I want in a car and will definitely be added to my list. Although, it will be a tough choice as the K900 is just that good! .....Too many choices!! One thing is certain. Lauren Fix is a FOX! And a very hot one at that! Love the G80 and your review of it as well. Thank you, Princess Lauren!

Thanks for the comments and compliments

[@MrHicks-lo8vn]

You are very welcome, young lady. I know that I sound like a broken record sometimes regarding how sweet you look, I mean no harm. It's just that you are simply AMAZING! Not just because of your beauty, I truly admire you for all of your accomplishments, Lauren. James Brown was considered the hardest working man in show business. If he were still with us, he would be very proud of your work ethic ......he would have LOVED you as well. Keep the great reviews coming, sister!

I think Michael Jackson had "other issues" to deal with🤔🙄❗

The Germans build hi tech quality without reliability. A 3 year old Genesis is going to be a much better car to own than a 3 year old Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Cadillac, or Lincoln.

[@OfficialDreTony]

I agree. And the maintenance would be more affordable.

It's the Koreans offering lifetime warranty ... otherwise their junk wouldn't sell.

@@philsalley3278 you seem to be unable to deal with facts. Resorting to name calling? You're making my point, thank you.

[@philsalley3278]

@@christophresmerowski1824 And what are the facts that back up your statement about South Korean car's. If you took time to check you would see that they are at the top of reviews. I guess when Mercedes cut their 4 year bumper to bumper warranty to zero it was because their cars were so bad. I stand by my original comments.

Lauren”s the real deal great reviews. I’m not sure if you can even compliment a women these days anymore but I will she’s also attractive too so there I said it Lol.

I’m planning to buy this masterpiece unfortunately in Saudi Arabia the standard g80 costs 55k dollar but I’m gettin it anyway!

[@raedkhmous1292]

Stunning vehicle by all means

[@dearbulls]

The single most interesting feature on the new G80 and GV80 is the AR Navigation. Seen them on the Korean model. But NONE of the US journalists show any of it. Is there an agreement with Genesis or something? How could everyone miss this key feature? Saw you went into the map feature briefly on this review, but still didn't see any AR Navigation on the US road...

[@CarCoachReports]

No agreement, this was not their biggest feature during our presentation. AR Navigation is very cool, but there are so many impressive safety, technology and features to cover.

[@dearbulls]

@@CarCoachReports but I was told that AR navigation is only on Korean model. Although you didn't show it in the video, can you confirm that it is actually coming to the US?

[@CarCoachReports]

They are navigation is already available on vehicles like Mercedes Benz. And will be available on the 2021 Cadillac Escalade as well. 20 2021 genesis GV 80 will have AR navigation in the US

[@bobdavis3357]

This is a COOL looking car. It needs more HP though. Is it quick enough?

[@ryandb2043]

G80 2.5 Gv80 3.5 Good!

[@CarCoachReports]

Like both but prefer the 3.5L

[@anthonymoore4096]

I believe Rolls is the only other make which uses Lexicon. Good company to keep. Amazing sound quality. I wonder what an apples for apples E or 5 cost?

[@Jazzmaster71]

Offcourse it can compete. This is something fresh in this class,
