Thread: 2011 Genesis Official First Hands On

All they did was change the color of the silver accent pieces unless I'm missing something. Sure, it's a little nicer, but it's really about the same.

Am I missing something about what the excitement is about? The NAV even looks identical...

you'll notice the silver trim piece on the door grab now also wraps around a bit, not just like it's stuck there. Lots of the old hard plastic pieces have been replaced with the soft touch material thats used on the dash of the 2010's.

Plus my big thing about it is the radio buttons are black now... and not silver... You cant do anything cuz the silver clashes with everything.

It's just a few minor changes, the

silver accents on the vent handles, gauge cluster surrounds
the interior trim pieces are black
coat hangers in the rear
trunk handle

Also trim levels have been changed, no HIDs for the grand touring
No manual transmission on the premium and grand touring
No base V6
Black is available on the grand touring for the interior
.... etc.

The only thing that interests me here is the leather wrapped wheel.. and maybe the new buttons since my track up/down button is a little wobbly now. What's that total like 70 bucks? I'll keep what i have, you keep the 2011... pfff

All blacked out with the Nav looks sick. They did a good job with most changes but I'm sure theres a million things people wanted them to change. Think 2012 they'll have the GDI motor?

Def looks better, I think. Still I'm most interested in having better feel on that steering wheel. The last several cars i've owned have all had leather-wrapped wheels, and none have been so firm and closer to feeling like hard plastic as the one on my genesis track.

Also it was a very wise move darkening the center stack. Looks sharp.

2011 looks great..Dam I saw the LIMEROCK in person for the first time, All of a sudden I had a hankerin some limeade outstanding color!!

i would buy the new pieces they look nice
