Just saw this last night, i knew about the sedan, but the coupe is VERY VERY Nice The Genesis Coupe: Concept:  Production:   I'd really like the body of the concept. Anyway, this is one hyundai i would have no problems driving with the exception of the Elantra I drive at the moment. The Genesis Coupe is rear wheel drive and comes with the option of a 2.0L l4 Turbo (212hp) or a 3.7L V6 (306hp). Now if i could just find a weight I can compare the hp/wt ratios with the other compact coupes out there. I'm very impressed with this car. Sadly the list price is gonna be around $30K, which makes this also one very expensive Hyundai (as compared to the other hyundai's).  ------------- Xbl:PhantomReign97

I don't think people believe in Hyundai's brand labeling enough to drop 30k on one. Not to mention to me it looks like the Tiburons older brother. |

I was about to say - it looks like a reworked Tiburon. Definitely an improvement, but then the Tiburon needed improvement. That said, I would have no problems driving a Hyundai. I gather they have mostly overcome their reliability issues, and their prices are hard to beat. ------------- Waste and excess are not conservative family values http://www.nytimes.com/ref/opinion/07opclassic.html - Nature is not a liberal plot http://pickensplan.com - A Good Energy Plan |

Resale value on a hyundai is crap. However, they are doing that new thing now that if you lose your job within a year of purchase they will buy it back from you. |

I think they might be shooting for the fact you wont be $20,000 in debt with no job, so then you can use what money you have already payed on it to get a cheaper junk car. But good point though, I didnt even think of that. lol. |

hell yeah it is. I wish I could have done that for mine. The $200 a month payments and $200 a month insurance is kind of steep at the moment. ------------- Que pasa?

NiQ-Toto: they work just fine.
They built this car to compete with the 370Z/G37
Just picked random ones from a GIS.
yeah, it does look similar to a Tiburon, I think it looks more like an Altima Coupe. Hyundai has in fact overcome previous reliability issues, and now all come with a 10yr/100k warranty. edit: wierd... those watermarks were not on there before, thats what i get for hotlinking i guess. ------------- Xbl:PhantomReign97

Looks nice until you get to the grill... Then it looks like it's a really smug, scrawny, buck-toothed, ginger kid. -------------

definitely doesn't look like your typical Hyundai, but once you hit the $30k mark, it gets pretty competitive; lots of automakers have decent sports car platforms here. I'd still take a Honda S2000 if I had to choose a sports car in the 30k range. ------------- I do it fast, slow, hard, and easy. I sometimes even do it in the woods. Yeah, I'm a runner. |
