Have had my GV80 on order now for well over 6 months. Just found out today that Eben though it’s in port and we have the VIN number, I won’t see it for another month at the earliest.
This is becoming an absolute joke Genesis. WTF...... let’s go. No excuse it’s taking this long, especially since it’s sitting in your Oregon port.

Have they explained why it's going to take an extra month? Is it a problem on Genesis' end or with the port?

No explanation. Dealer is frustrated as well.

 

[Randall T]

Are they selling it for MSRP?

 

[Kurt67]

I wonder if it's taking longer to process at the port because of Covid?

 

[John]

Are they selling it for MSRP?

I sure hope not.

 

[GenesisFan]

@John are you making plans and preparations for when your vehicle arrives? Like deciding on where to get paint protection done, window tinting, accessories, modifications, etc?

 

[Sjohnston]

Anyone cooling on this suv after the MT review? Sounds like handling may be an issue.

Just bought mine yesterday 11/25 Paid 5k over sticker. Dealer said i was the first in the USA to buy one.

 

[Sjohnston]

Love it? How does it handle? Seat massager ok?

Seat massager is a joke, not real.
Handles very well for a heavy car.
Yes, love it

 

[Sjohnston]

Thanks, hope to get mine today...was looking forward the seat massager. Oh well.

My dealer said due to Covid slowdown. Port authority and inspection process slowed way down

Was it worth the wait and the extra 5k? How does or handle?

 

[Gen1GV80]

Was it worth the wait and the extra 5k? How does or handle?

Yes, worth the wait.
Yes, worth the extra 5k.
Handles great. I usually keep it on sport mode for better handling. It's a heavy car and handles like it's luxury.

How is the seat massager? I keep reading that it's a joke.

There is no seat massager. The thing they are calling a seat massager is not really a seat massager. My guess is that it was lost in translation between English and Korean

Appreciate the info. One YouTube reviewer mentioned feeling a pressure point in their back all the time even when the "massager" was not in use.

Do you feel anything, or is the seat comfortable for everyday driving like I would hope it to be?

Thanks and congrats on your new GV80 btw!

Yes, I feel the pressure point in my back. I think it is a weird way they put together the airbag in the seat. The seat is comfortable enough for everyday but is not super comfortable. I may end up putting gel or memory foam inside.

There is a black on black available today from Salesman Steve Allen at Palm Springs Genesis at NO markup

 

[Sjohnston]

I just drove one, did not even notice. Very comfortable, quiet, seemed to handle nicely...
