If Hyundai goes through with either a V8 or TT V6, it's going to be a priced close to $47k....That's roughly the premium you pay for the Genesis V8 Sedan over the V6 Sedan. That's a tough pill to swallow, especially when the Mustang's & Z are due for a re-design. That's also close to the new Corvette Stingray's territory. That Hyundai V8 can't compare to the 6.2-liter LT1. Hyundai has to go with a turbo'd V6 and keep it below $40k to be successful. Truthfully, it doesn't really matter what they stuff under the hood, the Gen Coupe needs a better overall design.
