I received a PM from one of the members here (now people will know I'm not a bot) and am giving a little bit of first hand knowledge of the G70. I bough this car in June of this year, Santiago Silver with the 3.3t Sport package, which is everything you can get. I have owned one other Hyundai product, a 2013 Santa Fe Limited which I bought new and drove for 115kms. It was an excellent vehicle with the only warranty claim being a squeaky front sway bar bushing (around 30k) in all that time. Seriously. I like AWD drive cars, I've owned a Stage 2 WRX and a BMM 530XI. I was watching the development of this car and the Stinger, with my preference being the G70. In my research I speced out a BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C Class and a Audi S4 for price comparison. I did it again tonight for reference an took screen clips of the prices. The A4 was the cheapest at 65K, then the Merc at 73K and finally the BMW at almost $74K. These cars still have a couple grand (give or take) on freight and PDI.
These prices are Canadian. I tried to get the specs the same as the G70, but I'm not sure if the S4 has as many options. The G70 is $57,500.00 loaded with everything, 5 years maintenance and no freight or PDI.
Here's a few pics of my car, we had a early snow storm which has (thankfully) melted. Obviously, the car was not in the garage that night. I live in farm country and there are still crops that need to be taken off the field.
I took a pic of the HUD (not very good but you get the idea).
And a few pics of the gauges. There is a color change in the info section depending on which drive mode you are in.
So far I'm really liking this car. It's quiet on the highway, comfortable, rides really well and goes like stink. For the curious, I have a Note 9 with a Spigen case, it will wirelessly charge even though the case makes the phone just a little too long for the charging pad.
I'm old school and am still getting used to having my remote start on my phone instead of on my key chain, but it is configurable so that's a nice touch. I will be buying some winter rims and tires soon, 18" non staggered with Michelin X Ice.

Congrats on the car, and thanks a lot for the photos and info! I am glad to know it's quiet - one thing I would like to maintain in my next vehicle - and the G70 is on my short list.

You're welcome. I should have added that I used premium fuel exclusively for the first 5000kms and then switched to regular unleaded. I haven't notice a difference in mileage or in the seat of the pants. I took this pic of the owners manual.

I think the idea is that there won't be any options, just the various trim levels. That way you don't have to ask about obscure options, for instance: "Hey, did your G70 3.3T Dynamic come with the ventilated seats?" You already know it did, since it's the Dynamic. But then, there are many trim levels, so it's still a bit "much".
