Next Volvo XC90 Coming In 2014 At The Earliest

Oh I LOVE to engage in politics and talk politics.  It is difficult for me to follow my own rule here. But there are other places on the internet for that and I would rather we keep this a friendly place. Politics can, especially of late, ruin relationships and friendships. I've left car clubs over politics and the general bad behavior associated with older white straight men of a particular political party. For a time, I considered shutting down C&G because every thread devolved into an "I love EVs"/"You're a dumb liberal if you do" fight and it really killed my love for this hobby. It has been difficult for me to return to it.

The top 1% aren't buying a Genesis.  They are trying to sell to baby boomers who used to have a Buick, Cadillac, Infiniti or Lincoln and they don't have luxury sedans anymore, or maybe people that think a Lexus LS is too sporty.  

Mercedes also only started off in a limited production for the S Class and all models above and still in many ways does sell a limited amount of their uber luxury models. Why is it wrong for Genesis to roll out a model that is truly aimed at the 1% and will eventually offer it globally for those that want the best executive luxury sedan? Many auto companies that have been in that top tier market make a profit off of selling a few thousand a year only. If you took a close look, you would find that not everything is glassy black leaving finger prints. In fact while like @Robert Hall stated and you, the all black thing has been done by just about everyone. Yet here, as I pointed out, they took the time to take this to a level of refinement that no one, not even Mercedes has done in making sure every piece, including the engine bay is the same true color of black with matte black in key areas that would be touched allot. I can see this being loved by those that like everything all black to the nth degree. I also have to agree with Robert, it is very nice to see a company still making sedans, especially long wheelbase for those that are big.

One can hope At this point it is a done deal, I want to retire elsewhere and never see this country ever again. Politics is a waste of time because Trump and current policies are what and who a large percentage of America really is.  So I vote keep the politics out. I love Maya, and agree I plan on keeping my paid off truck. Maybe I can make it to retirement, and retire somewhere that I don't need a car.  That is sort of my hope at the moment. 

It's one of those tiresome, overdone trends...like black wheels or gray houses with black window trim.  I'd assume the LWB G90 has a demand in S. Korea.      In a world full of dull CUVs and SUVs, though,  it is nice to see someone making a full size sedan...the LWB version has a 132.7 inch wheelbase.
