Extra Throttle House has become the "Cars I could actually afford" channel. I love it!

[@-_--le3zk]

So you can afford g70? damn

[@blizzrd6578]

@@-_--le3zk It's only 55k cad. It's not crazy expensive. I would personally buy the Acura TLX Type S at that price range but it's not really out of reach for the average person. It's like top end price for the average income.

[@Ksh7571]

@@Fdezluxurycars the type s has more power than an s4 but lower than the m340i. It’s not as dated as they used to be, the touchscreen thing is personal preference. I hate touch screens, rather have a rotary dial, easier to use while driving, way less distracting and doesn’t smudge and look gross. But at the end of the day it’s personal preference. Some prefer touchscreens, it’s a personal choice.

[@frommorningnight146]

I had the worst experience having a Kia car. This was my first time I chose Kia because I liked the car that I was going to lease. The previous two cars that I drove were Toyota and they never ever gave me problems that usually an older car gives (one Problem on top of another). Imagine you trust the company, you get a brand new car thinking that “hey it’s a new car. I’m not going to have all the problems that old cars give" and then one day you wake up, your car is not starting, the next day brake lights don’t work, the following week another problem comes up.

[@teej5619]

Honestly... the straight pipes and throttle house are two of some of the best reviewing channels out there right now

[@tahsin28]

Guys watch the comparisons by everyDAY driver, think they are the best. Duo of 'genuine American' dads. And the hosts of the other channel has become typical accountant dads. They get extra excited during big-ish suv reviews as if 'they wanted to buy it and it turned out good'. They like cars but when it comes to buying themselves they would buy a bus-like suv (which absolutely nobody needs whatsoever).

[@JS-hw8ve]

@@tahsin28 Everyday Driver is good, I like how they don't always agree but give a clear picture of what to expect from the cars they review. TH is tops. And I gave up on the Pipes a while ago. They may be growing, but they can do it without me. I used to really like them, not any more. I'm sure my absence will not be missed. You guys checked out the stuff from Hagerty/Issimi?

I absolutely love the G70. Would love one in my driveway. It's that perfect combination of luxury, performance, and practicality, and at the price, so much more inviting than it's peers. The Genesis brand and the Stinger don't get enough respect.

[@georgehugeabutt9947]

Look underneath and you'll see why. The suspension architecture , NVH materials and solidity are not there. That being said , its a GREAT daily driver and highway commuter.

[@JS-hw8ve]

@@georgehugeabutt9947 Gonna have to disagree on that. It's more to do with perceived image and brand recognition than quality. I mean, the G70 is sister to the Stinger, and that's won multiple Car of the Year awards over the Germans. I think the judges know a little something about comparing the two, like Thomas and James did here.

[@johns9969]

@@JS-hw8ve yeah - I'm a Mech Eng and I was fuming in the BMW curtasy van after the last breakdown with a bunch of Media people. They were laughing how their $80-100K cars basically self destruct. I wanted to tell them they are in an abusive relationship.

Guys, I know it's "one-take" episodes, but I think it would be nice if you can show different angles of the car during intro. Usually it just a front, but it would be really nice if you could park the cars a bit different midway through exterior review part. Anyhow, thanks for your work!

[@genesisg7022]

As a 2019 Genesis G70 owner, I must admit that I prefer the front end of the 2022 better than mine. But I like the rear end of mine better. I'm glad that they replaced the logo on the trunk with the Genesis's name. That way people know what brand it is. When I first got mine, people asked was it an Aston Martin because of the logo, my neighbor thought it was a Chrysler by the logo. Now people will know that it's a Genesis! FYI While my G70 was in for service, I test drove the Genesis Gv80. Boy did I love driving it. It drove like a smaller vehicle.

[@euly]

Also a 2019 G70 owner, exact same opinion and I've also gotten people thinking it's anywhere from an Aston Martin, Bentley, or a Chrysler

Where can Hyundai go with this gimmiky headlight/taillight design for future Genesi? The backend looks nice, but the front went too far.

Overall it’s nice, but I hope the front looked a bit sharper. It has lower grills then G80 but it’s still too round. I hope the grill was more flat. Also the rear just looks like you put a tape in the middle of the old g70’s lamp, but it’s just a facelift so I guess they couldn’t change it.
