new hyndai genesis coupe

[2REDSTANGS]

wondering how people are feeling about this i think it looks pretty cool but a lot of people giving me crap for liking a hyndai anyway i'm curious what people think http://www.hyundaigenesis.com/coupe/
there have video of it going around the track looks impressive

i hate hyundias...
it doesn't have a lot of power...
its probably expensive...
its ugly...
its foreign...
its not a mustang...

 

[justinschmidt1]

wow, lot of hate...I mean, atleast research the thing.

RWD, 6 speed manual, 3.8 v6 with 300+ hp, 2.0 turbo base 215hp( same engine as the evo)

Its not a bad car at all....looks nice to me.

Definately like them...hyundai is 100X better than they used to be.

Theres some pretty badass sounding 3.8 genesis coupes on youtube and a turbo with a gt30 that puts 360 to the ground.

Base is gonna be low 20s, the 3.8 is probably mid to high 20s.

Its a nice car IMO.

 

[jc95gt]

i researched them when they first cameout...
and that is what i found...

imo if anyone buys one they are an idiot.

i think you are big time underrating it if it was a piece of shit hyndai couldnt offer america s best warrenty
i love mustangs but i think you have to be open to this sort of thing

[jc95gt]

[jc95gt]

Hey JC_SapphireBlue_GT

Not for nothing bro, your being kind of harsh. Yeah you might not like it. But hey, your entitled to your opinion. But don't sit here and bash the hell out of people for something they might like. Have a little respect. There are things I see that mustang people do that I hate but you know what, it's their car. Everyone has their own taste in stuff.

 

[jc95gt]

the op
asked our feeling about the car, i stated mine...

but i get what ur saying lol

 

[2REDSTANGS]

i figured it would be a mixed response i would rather have any of those 3 cars too but those cars are all at least 2 years old i dont think its a fair comparison new car vs few year old car but i think it looks like a good platform and if they sell well maybe they will make a more beefy version, the more companies who enter this sort of market i think the better for car enthusiast b/c they will push each other to make better stuff that we get to drive
....maybe i dont really know just spitballin

 

[bigjohnson4.6gt]

i like it, its about time hyundai made something thats actually got some balls, I wouldnt call anyone who drove it an idiot though

 

[justinschmidt1]

heres 3 cars in the price range that are wayyyyyyyyy better

lol, I agree...Im just saying I wouldnt mind taking one for a spin..checking it out.

Still looks like a cool car to me.

Those cars are in its price range USED...not new.

In a couple years you will be able to pick up a 4 cylinder turbo genesis for like 10k I bet.

I like the hyundai, I think it looks a billion times better than the evolution and the subaru. I liked the 2 door wrxs back in the late 90's, but now they've gotten too fugly. I think this car will do great even though I have never been a hyundai fan... well mostly because they've never produced a car that hasn't completely sucked off the assembly line.

 

[Rice_slayer]

Looks like a tiburon on steriods. Sounds balsy, but its still a Hyundai, No self respecting male drives a hyundai .

 

[Mr.Bolt-on]

Yeah, I'd have to agree.

 

[OnyxCobra]

I think it's pretty sweet, looks like they spent a LOT more time styling it than Ford did the new Mustang... I'd be willing to bet its a pretty nice car.

 

[duh09]

Looks cool, but it's a Hyundai.

My bro bought a new little one (not the genesis) for a beater (he's got like 5 cars. bastard) and disliked it. Took it in a week later for stupid repairs (door handle fell off, window controls stopped workin) and left the lot with a used honda.


It's a cool car, but you get what you pay for.

The new hyundai's are seriously catching my attention. We had a 98 accent that was bought new and it had some issues while under warranty (3yr 36k) and they fixed it. 8 yrs later the door handle broke, um, the valve cover gasket started leaking and the battery went dead. at 10 yrs the clutch went out and the alternator went bad. So I fixed it and sold it for $1300. Not bad for a car that was $8200 drive out new. Would have been a good gas saver to keep but we'd out grown it.
I'd definitely drive a genesis sedan daily, better features than I can get for a similar priced maxima or even a slightly used Mercedes, but god i loved that Mercedes. I like the G35/37 styling of the coupe but dislike the very elantra looking bumper.

 

[Mr.Bolt-on]

Yeah, I wish Ford did a better job on the 2010 mustang.... whoever thought the rear of that mustang looked awesome was crazy... no, they would be better off designing scion xbs.
