Hyundai Genesis Coupe Super Bowl Shoot
|
I am liking this hyundai coupe more and more every day, the problem is, will they keep on making them after the first model year?

OK...I've seen them in the flesh at this point and I have to say, it's a good-looking vehicle. Unfortunately unlike the Genesis sedan which has a rather nicely-appointed interior with a good fit-and-finish and lots of soft-touch materials, the coupe has a very...very...very...plasticky, hard, unrefined interior. It feels far too much like the Chery, BYD and SAIC products that I've seen, and much too much like the Hyundais of old. Unless they fix the build quality and fit-and-finish issues, I doubt it's going to steal too many sales from the 370Z, Camaro V6, Mustang V6, and so forth.

I think this car's biggest selling point is that it's light "cheap" rwd fun, especially in turbo 2.0 trim. It doesn't quite have the punch to keep up with the likes of the Camaro, Mustang, and Z, but it should have a significant price advantage. A Z starts right at just under 30k so any option takes you out of the 20's while I expect The base genesis coupe to start at V6 Camaro prices . . . I just used the 370Z configurator . . . did you know that you can spend 42k on a Z?!

its not a 370 competitor. Its more of a g37 competitor, and it will have quite a price advantage. |
and it will also have a back seat and trunk.

I am buying the camaro, that is a given, but I want to test drive the genesis coupe also, if I like it I may just opt for it, I am tired of waiting for GM |
Material use on the Genesis are a suprise. Build quality is not. I was expecting a lot when I finally got to touch it. I don't think it deserved COTY; as it felt assembled more sloppily than a show car BMW.

Yeah, I don't know what is taking the Camero so long. GM knows this will sell like hot pan cakes if they didn't screw up the reliability.
