new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

Hey guys

here's the youtube on the new hyundai genesis coupe.

The cars going to come in two versions, I4 turbo estimated around 200hp and a v6 3.8L estimated at around 300hp. The v6 is thought to be priced around $25k or under and the i4 turbo they think is probably going to be $19-21k range.

There going to offer LSD and brembo brakes as options from the factory.

The best part is that the car is rwd.

Its also suppose to be able to seat 4 people, probably similar to the rx8.

This car is pretty much setup as a poor man g35.

here's video of the production version. Looks watered down from the concept but that was expected.

not too much of a fan of the front, but i think a aftermarket bumper can fix that. I like the rear and the interior looks promising

Re: new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

yeah, the front kinda reminds me of a is250 and the rear kinda looks like a g35.

I think if they can keep the weight close to 3000lbs. I think they'll have a winner. This is definately steal away some si buyers. If they keep to there price ranges.

It'll be nice to have a turbo car with 100,000 mile warranty.

he's the autoblog link with high res pics of the car

Re: new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

Re: new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

The front really reminded me of a Lexus IS-F

But hot damn...That's one of the best Hyundai designs I've ever seen. You can kinda see a styling cue from the Tiburon on the side of the car...

Re: new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

Hyundai & Kia is going to be the next Honda&Toyota, or kinda close in the near future imo.

They're not what they used to be. Hyundai already has 3 SUV's, 1 minivan, 2 mid-size sedans, Etc.. Kia has 2 SUV's, 1 crossover SUV, 1 minivan and a bunch of other cars. Etc.....

but no matter what.
Honda, Toyota, Nissan > Hyundai, Kia

Re: new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

Kia doesnt have anything on hyundai, nor does it even come close to honda or nissan.

That ride though, man... I'll test one of them out when it hits the market- that color is pretty sick too.

Re: new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

I only have one thing to say............it has a 100,000 mile warranty for a reason. We have used hyuadi's come through our dealership.....man they are rough after some miles.

Re: new hyundai genesis coupe rwd

The statement about Hyundai/Kia being the next Honda/Toyota is incorrect, rather, Hyundai/Kia is what Honda/Toyota USED to be... that is a pretty quality made car that has a worthwile price tag.. that was the market niche Honda/Toyota HAD, but now their cars have become inflated, and don't have the "best bang for your buck" slogan like Hyundai/Kia have now...

BTW the car is hot, might pick one up someday
