Barfffff lol So stock for stock going from mine to the Z would be a big upgrade. After the few mods I've done, I'm now at ~210hp and 230tq to the wheels but still a good bit less than a stock Z. I don't plan on doing anything more with a Z than I have with mine which would be intake, exhaust, and a tune. I just get nervous about giving up a couple years, the miles, and warranty to trade back. From what I've seen though, aside from the few common things I've read on here (steering lock issue, fuel starvation, and oil temps) the car seems to be pretty reliable for most. And if you're wondering, yes my genesis is an auto and I'd go for the auto Z also. I know I know...Can't drive, gtfo, no stick no dic*, yada yada yada haha
Oh....the truly awful Genesis. Sorry. Id do what it takes to get out of that, within reason. I wouldnt be car poor but id let some cash go if you can safely afford it. First world problems huh?
