    Genesis Introduces Spectrum "All-Inclusive" leasing

      ...fully covered everything for 3 years.

    Genesis has introduced Spectrum all-inclusive leasing.  While not a subscription service like Volvo's Care or Book by Cadillac , Spectrum does include insurance and all maintenance for 3 years.   Subscription leasing services main draw is the ability of the leasee to switch vehicles at some point during the lease.

    Genesis Spectrum covers the following:

    • 3 years/36,000 miles of complimentary scheduled maintenance
    • 3 years/36,000 miles complimentary Service Valet
    • 3 years of complimentary Genesis Connected Services, including Enhanced Roadside Assistance, Destination Search powered by Voice and Remote Start with climate control
    • 3 years of complimentary SiriusXM® Travel Link (Data Services)
    • 3 years of complimentary Annual Multimedia and Navigation Updates
    • Up to $1,525 allowance for excess wear and use, excess mileage, and disposition fee for returning Genesis Finance customers

    Genesis is striking a balance between the car subscription services, which have questionable financial viability, and traditional basic leasing.  Genesis Spectrum will be available first in Florida and then roll out to select markets nationwide.

    This makes far more sense for people who do not want to bother with getting insurance. Just lease from the OEM auto company with all service and insurance included. To me this has far more value than the subscription services.

    It makes it easier to deduct on taxes as well.

    One question: why only three years?  Should they not have a five-year option too?

    I think 3 years is the most popular lease option. There isn't a lot of 5-year leasing out there.

    This makes sense.  I could see this becoming popular... I know part of the reason my parents tried their first lease 3 years ago is because I enticed them with the idea of owning one car, and always having one car completely new, covered bumper-to-bumper, and the only thing they really have to do is get it inspected and have oil changes.

    Now Genesis will do all of that with Concierge pickup too.

    I honestly wish I had that service because the dealer, even with an appointment, is horribly slow. I end up sitting there for 2-3 hours for an oil change.  And I tried to get it done at Pep Boys and they don't carry the "exotic" and it has to be preordered, which I wish they would tell you when you make the appointment.

    It's a nice thing I have with my Buick.

    I find w/ my dealer it's a couple hours minimum with an appointment.  I usually take my laptop and sit in the lounge and work.   Sitting in a doctor's office waiting room working now.

    I wonder what sort of insurance coverage it will provide.  Is this state minimum coverage?  Or will it be a no deductible, million dollar liability type of policy?

    From the Press Release, I know it doesn't say much.

    Quote

     

    The auto insurance policy from Metlife Auto and Home includes competitive coverage with $500 deductible adding to the customers’ confidence that their Genesis vehicles are fully protected.

    it says you can switch vehicles but i doubt anyone leasing the G70 would want to switch to the others.......ever.....

    I don't see that anywhere in the press release. I'll update the article if I'm wrong... but... not seeing it.

    You're right, my bad.  I read that originally so fast, the Genesis program is not a subscription service.

    And I doubt anyone who wants a G70 would want to stoop to either of the other two Genesi.

    • Awesome specimen.    Sadly though, it is no longer available for sale.  Did the seller find a buyer?  At $48 000, it is relatively cheap to buy.  Does that mean muscle cars are going down in price?  Maybe its not a "numbers matching" 455.  Perhaps an aftermarket "upgrade".  It does have an Edelbrock stamp on the block which explains the "low" price of 48 thousand.   Either way, Id buy it.  Well...not now.  Owning a "vintage" muscle car would be #2 of my dreams and wishes.   Im on my way of realizing my #1  of dreams and wishes.  Owning a home (condo) on a Greek island.  My financials are almost there for that.  If #1 is not fullfilled, then #2 would happen.  But #1 looks to be right on track.  Only thing I will whine about is: Although I LOOOOVE Cragar SS wheels,  ESPECIALLY on muscle cars, I somehow disapprove of them on a 442.  The rich that support him are making even MORE money with him there so no...they will NOT listen. They do not care.  The others are racist bastards that as long as the ones they hate are in worse shape than they are, then they will allow trump to destroy the country.  It WILL take the rest of you to fight for your country.    To remove him FORCIBLY  and all those other cancerous shyteholes that have infected your country. 
    • @oldshurst442 Found your next car, on ebay for sale!  1970 Oldsmobile 442 1970 Oldsmobile 442 | eBay 1970 Oldsmobile 442 | eBay Very clear that WE THE PEOPLE are speaking up louder, but will those idiots that enable Idiot47 listen. Maria Shriver makes bold political statement about Trump after series of tragedies: 'I've had enough'
    • Idiot47 is nothing more than a mole controlled by Russia. Do not forget the pictures and video that was released by Russia of him and prostitutes in Russia as he was there with his wife to try and get Idiot Hotels. He is nothing more than a stool pigeon for Russia destroying America and any other system as they try to push their dictator control of the world. WE THE PEOPLE need to take back America, Impeach Idiot47 and his whole administration. Bring back Democracy, working in unison with the world, not an attempt to attack the world and the continued pardoning of criminals. The whole administration needs to be arrested and turned over to the Hague to stand trial for Crimes against Humanity.
    • Do not forget that he also reignited his racist "why do we get immigrants from non-white countries and not from white countries" rhetoric. Oh...then there is the constant talk about war on his own citizens. Also, the constant attacks on Canada, the usa's most reliable and friedliest neighbour. Not to mention the  grifting and the corruption that allows his friends and family to gain billions of dollars financially from government coffers.  I have become NON-TOLERANT to ANY american entity.  I DESPISE maga, trailer trash and anything remotely connected to trump and/or the republican party. I HATE anything american that ALLOWS trump to continue on this path and I do NOT respect americans that allow this shyte to exist.   And many many MANY Canadians feel the same way. It is NOT just me...  It is, in the grand scheme of things, ALL of Canada that has this hatred for the usa.  And its not ONLY because of trump...   I as a Canadian, we Canadians DO have a dog in this fight as trump has THREATENED OUR nation politically, economically. His words ARE words of war and add insult to injury, some americans to this day do NOT understand the severity of it all.     Phoque trump Phoque the usa
