I didn't mention anything about quality...

I'm just not into Hyundai. The only Hyundai that has even remotely grabbed my attention is the Genesis.

 

I think the bigger issue is that the car is downright fugly and I still haven't seen any torque specs on the "OMG we have 310 HP!!!!!" V6. It all stinks of the Camaro V6 300 HP hype.

 

I couldn't agree more. And to be honest with you, I personally wouldn't care if the Genesis Coupe was even capable of reaching 400HP.

The bottom line, is just as you said. The car is just downright fugly, and also has no appeal to me whatsoever. As a matter of fact, IMHO. This car is far more fugly, than what the 04-06 GTO was !

 

Those imports are looking cool, but I prefer to keep the money I invest in a vehicle in the US, and not to Asia...

 

c'mon guys that is not a bad looking car. It seems like everyone here hates on anything that is not a Ford. Even if the torque isn't that high, it's still better than the Mustang's base engine!

 

It's okay. A little overstyled, though. That rear quarter window is one of the most awkward things I've ever seen.

 

i have no doubt it is a good car... i think the rear window looks weird but its not a deal breaker if this is the kind of car you are going for. i stick with mustang though

 

Hell yeah.

 

And everybody outside of here(even some here) hate on anything that IS a Ford.
That's not the Hyundai base engine. Why are you comparing it to the Mustang's base engine?

 

Yeah Those Quarter Windows Are Just Stupid Looking In My Opinion. They Were Just Trying To Be Different For Oddity's Sake. It Makes The Whole Thing Look Dumpy And Droopy To Me. Kinda Like Anti Hips Compared To The Mustang, Camaro, And Challengers Hips. I'm Also Not A Fan Of The Headlights With Those Dopey Little Downward Points/Tears At The Outer Corners.

 

The front end on the Genesis is boring and bland. No heritage to draws cues from either. Just not my cup of tea.

 

Though to be fair, as you can see on the silver one in the background, this thing does have more pronounced hips than the 2010 Mustang would seem to have.

Not that hip size has any relevance. Just sayin'.

 

It kinda remind me of the Nissan Altima coupe and Infinity G35 coupe. To me it seems like it's going to have some power, be cheaper than everyone else and offer the 100,000 mile warranty can't go wrong with that.

I see this car being marketed to potential Nissan 350Z, RX8 buyers...... Same or equal performance for less money. Keep in mind not everyone wants retro and I think this car does a good job looking very modern.

 

the better aftermarket car is going to be the turbo four because the boost is set low from factory. once tuners get ahold of it i'm sure it'll make 300whp for cheap. that's why ford needs to put the 4 cylinder dohc turbo in the mustang. tuners will be all over it. keep it light and no one will care about the SRA

 

Honestly Here's What I Would Change On The Genesis Coupe.

Mine



Compared To The Original.

 

And The Rear.


Mine.



Compared To The Original.

 

looks good

 

I agree, last month at the track I saw several SRT 4 Neons, SS Cobalts, WRX/STIs and EVOs all running excellent times with minor tweaks. As much as I love the Mustang I think the SS Cobalt and SRT Neon are the LX Mustang of today's generation.

 

looks like the Altima coupe with Hyundai badging....tisk tisk
