The exterior facelift works wonders in wagon form, but the interior is really showing its age.
Nope, just Europe.

This round of the Options Game was enlightening.
I won't tell you guys what we paid for the 2021 BMW 330i M Sport we just added to the garage, but I will say the MSRP of approximately $49,000 US. For a little over a thousand bucks more, one can have a fully-loaded G70 3.3T Sport Prestige in rear-wheel-drive. That means twin-turbo V6 power, a limited-slip diff, and the fancy quilted leather. The G70 is a killer value.
I would feel it important to mention that the four-cylinder turbos in these two cars are not apples-to-apples, nor are the sixes. Still, given the choice between the 30i's mill and the Genesis boosted six, I would take the latter.

But a 330 customer opting for the TTV6, or an Accord/Camry/Maxima/6 customer going with the G70 2.5T, yes, I absolutely see that.

I agree that THIS is currently where the Genesis value play is -- for the same $$, you can get a much better equipped car. I do not see many 340 customers passing in favor of the G70 TTV6, or 330 customers for the G70 2.5T.

Another downgrade- we don't get the digital gauge cluster like the Korean spec model. Somehow it feels like Genesis is putting all their efforts in the GV70 and just neglecting the G70 with this refresh.

There is no G70 2.5T, it still uses the same ancient 2.0T from a decade ago. Which is a shame because the 2.5T demolishes pretty much almost every other single turbocharged 4-cylinder currently on sale in its performance.

I know it's getting a similar interior upgrade.

You might (?) be one of the exceptions, but, in general, Americans prefer analog or analog-design gauges.
